Windows XP Pro SP3 Gold Cobra Edition is a bootleg Windows XP SP3 edition, which was created by searchengine. It released on May 18, 2008, and was added to the archive on December 13, 2021.

Description

The bootleg is a modified Windows XP SP3 ISO, with DriverPacks BASE 8.05 integrated. It comes with many new programs and updates, and a new theme, along with one other one.

On the first boot of the OS, Microsoft .NET Framework 3.0 and 3.5 will silently get installed automatically. A text file will open which will instruct you to check if .NET Framework 3.0/3.5 is installed in Add and Remove Programs, and if so then you must eject the CD and restart your computer.

It is preactivated. The ISO was made using nLite 1.4.5.
