== Description ==
'''Windows Dream Vista 2''' is the sequel to Windows Dream Vista created by the same author released almost a full year after.
The bootleg is a modified Windows XP SP3 ISO. It is the sequel to [[Windows Dream Vista]]. It has less Vista elements than the first one but has more variety, including different themes. The WPI, as well as Beauty Tools, have been removed completely. A simple program installer (with new programs differing from its predecessor) packaged into the autorun, and all of 2 customization utilities take their place. Speaking of the autorun, it has been updated with a new look.

The ISO was made using nLite, and the autorun was made with AutoPlay Media Studio 8.0.5.0.
