Windows Seven Starter 3.0 No Pain is a lost bootleg Windows 7 Starter SP1 edition, which was created by Lander X. It released sometime in 2012.

Description

The bootleg is a modified Windows 7 Starter SP1 ISO. According to the description on the site and the box, it is optimized for Intel Atoms and was cracked/patched against KB971033 which was an update that broke pirated copies of Windows.

Software

Based on what's labeled on the box:

  • 700 fonts
  • DirectX 11
  • Internet Explorer 9
  • Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5
  • Audio and video codecs
  • Windows Media Player 12
  • A tool to transfer the setup from the DVD to a USB stick (probably [Windows 7 USB/DVD Download tool])

Notes

Remarks

  • The OS was sold for 50 Venezuelan bolivars (roughly less than a dollar of USD at the time)
  • Three different versions are given: the website labels the version as 3.0, the box labels it as "Starter SP1 25.0" and claims it has Service Pack 1 v13.
