Windows Vista Ultimate Fancy is a bootleg Windows XP SP2 edition, which was created by Benjamin Samson. It released on February 2, 2008, and was added to the archive on May 30, 2023.

Description

This bootleg is a modified Windows XP SP2 ISO, with many drivers, along with a boot selector, integrated.

It is intended to be themed after Windows Vista, and does it extremely well, which is no surprise, considering this bootleg literally came from an experienced Vista bootlegger.

It comes with many new programs, themes and wallpapers, and cursors and icons, along with registry tweaks. It comes with its own autorun, and specialized software packs. It has 2 software collections that drop to the Start menu's programs, one in the root of the user's Start menu, and another in the Start menu programs itself, which are subsequently split into their own categories. It is unattended and preactivated.

Through the autorun, you can access things like Internet Explorer 7 and WindowBlinds, along with the 2 specialized software collections and their respective autorun loaders.

The ISO was made using nLite 1.4, the autorun was made with AutoPlay Media Studio 7.1.1000.0 (rebranded as Peniel Media Studio 7.0), and the boot selector used was Bootable CD Wizard v2.0a1.
