Windos 7 is a bootleg Windows XP SP3 edition created by CHOCOLATEMAN (yeah, hard to believe, I know) and one of his real life friends which went by the persona "Inspector Gadget" on CollabVM, which released in 2016 after they decided one day to make their own Windows bootleg to make fun of them and how bad they are, after seeing Gold Windows XP 2016 by Computer Worm Corporation. They even made up a fake story to go along with the bootleg - they claimed they supposedly found the bootleg in a thrift store, and that it came out in September 21st, 2012 (which it did not, they had merely edited the file dates on the CD to hide the true date).

Description

The bootleg is a modified Windows XP SP3 ISO. The OS tries, rather pathetically, to mimic Windows 7 but with an XP style (mostly by replacing the background and removing the "start" text from the start button).

The ISO was made using nLite.

Changes from Windows XP SP3

  • The Bliss wallpaper has been replaced with the Windows 7 wallpaper, albeit without the Windows logo.
  • The OOBE music has been replaced with a techno song from the Newgrounds Audio Portal (Eon - Universe City).
  • The "take a tour" text had "Windows XP" replaced with "Windos 7"
  • The notepad icon has been changed to a low resolution Windows 7 notepad icon
  • Some of the drivers have also been modified, which brings up warnings during the setup

Notes

  • The misspelled name, "Windos 7", was originally an actual error but the creators kept it in because they found it too funny to be correct it.
