Notes

Remarks

In this version of TinyXP from 2005, the Networking Stack is partially broken and completely doesn't work for instance on AMD PCNET compatible network adapters, this was subsequently fixed in later revisions of TinyXP. Also most networking drivers are missing from this version, forcing the user to use other methods of getting network adapter drivers installed on the system.

Bootleg quirks

Shortcuts to the C and D drives have been added to the desktop.
Shortcuts to Microsoft Paint, Regedit, and Task Manager have been added to the "Quick Launch" bar.
