Description

The bootleg is a modified Windows XP SP3 ISO, with DriverPack and SATA-RAID/mass storage drivers integrated. It adds some programs, and changes some of the UI slightly. Other than that, there's not really much more to this mod.

It is unattended and preactivated. The ISO was made using nLite 1.4.9.1 on Windows XP SP3 and Windows Unattended CD Creator 0.9.8.
