== Description ==
The bootleg is a modified Windows XP SP3 ISO, with DriverPackDriverPacks BASE 8.12.5, Windows XP Post-SP3 Update Pack (QFE) version 20130312, and OnePiece IE8 Update Pack 4.2.0 integrated.
 
It comes with both a custom boot selector which lets you choose to either install the OS or boot an extremely primitive version of Hiren's Boot CD, and a custom autorun which lets you either launch a driver installer, or the WPI.
Many parts of the OS has been modified with a completely new look and the setup is almost entirely replaced with a Windows 7-style progress bar along with many previews of the bootleg's various themes and detailed descriptions in Arabic of the bootleg's quirks and features.
 
What makes this bootleg unique from others is its first boot routine - it allows you to configure your OS in terms of theming by giving you several choices to choose from, such as Ubuntu, Windows 7, Windows Vista and many more which will provide you with the respective look and feel to complete the experience. When you select an option from the list it gives you, you will be shown a preview of what the theme looks like along with some screenshots of the operating environment demonstrating programs and various other areas of the OS to showcase what the aforementioned theme might look like. Once you proceed from there, you will be taken to another selection screen, in it you will be able to choose if you want to install additional drivers or even additional software from the WPI.
