Description

The OS is an attempt to make Windows XP extremely small, while still being somewhat usable. The base ISO is 95 MB, and manages to install in only about two minutes. The network driver version is self-explanatory, it is the same, but with Internet Explorer and networking drivers present.

Changes from Windows XP SP3

  • Many programs, wallpapers and themes have been removed, leaving only Windows Classic, Notepad, Explorer, Command Prompt, Bluetooth File Transfer Wizard and Volume Control behind.
  • The classic logon screen is enabled by default, and there is not a way to change it back by normal means, as the User Accounts control panel applet has been removed.
  • Many leftover components are non-functional due to several dependencies removed.
  • The setup from Windows XP is not used, instead the one from Windows 2000 is used.
