It is most known for being featured on AmpDan1, a cooperative channel formerly ran by two well-known content creators, danooct1 and rogueamp, as a 5-part series showcasing the bootleg itself.[note 1]

Description

The bootleg is a modified Windows XP SP3 ISO. Like many other Windows bootlegs, this one is designed to look like Windows 7 with Aero elements which comes with most of the common customization utilities to give the system a Windows 7 look. It comes with plenty of themes and programs. The creators of the bootleg do not seem to be very proficient in English as it is riddled with many spelling errors, the CD and box art (which is on the CD) being no exception. It has a WPI. It is unattended and preactivated.

The ISO was made using nLite and the autorun was made with AutoPlay Media Studio 7.5.
