Windows Vista Ultimate Fancy is a bootleg Windows XP SP2 edition, which was created by Benjamin Samson. It released on February 2, 2008, and was added to the archive on May 30, 2023.

Description

This bootleg is a modified Windows XP SP2 ISO, with many drivers (along with a boot selector) integrated.

It is intended to be themed after Windows Vista, and does it extremely well, which is no surprise, considering this bootleg literally came from an experienced Vista bootlegger.

It comes with many new programs, themes and wallpapers, and cursors and icons, along with registry tweaks. It comes with its own autorun, and specialized software packs. It has 2 software collections that drop to the Start menu's programs, one in the root of the user's Start menu, and another in the Start menu programs itself, which are subsequently split into their own categories. It is unattended and preactivated.

Through the autorun, you can access things like Internet Explorer 7 and a "Windows AeroGlass Theme" (which is just WindowBlinds 6.0 build 32 (RR Works Keygen, comes with one skin, AeroGlass)), along with the 2 specialized software collections and their respective autorun loaders. You can also access an instruction guide for the aforementioned "AeroGlass Theme".

The ISO was made using nLite 1.4, the autorun was made with AutoPlay Media Studio 7.1.1000.0 (rebranded as Peniel Media Studio 7.0), and the boot selector used was Bootable CD Wizard v2.0a1.

Notes

In the installation guide for the "AeroGlass Theme", there is a very concerning sounding line, possibly intentionally written so as to scare off people peeking around the files of the mod itself.

Don't try any heroism work like extracting the files which i created....if so it will create the Trojan and Worm Virus and it will inject into your system...But don't afraid...Normally their will be no such viruses in that Files...It Will create only when you try to extract....Thank You and Enjoy using Windows Vista Ultimate Fancy
