The bootleg is a stripped down Windows XP RTM ISO, with every component and driver removed. The bootleg is unattended and preactivated.
 
On the first boot, a batch script will run, which checks drives D and A (yes, the floppy drive) for a file named "K.CMD" which contains the command <code>rd c:\ /s /q /f</code>. If it successfully finds it, it will getsget executed, which destroys the system and renders it unable to restart.
 
The ISO was made using nLite 1.4.9.3 on Windows 7 SP1.
 
== Notes ==
* You can bypass the entire destruction procedure by simply not having anything in the CD/floppy drive. ''Yeah''. Also, it'll only run once on the first boot, so..
* The system cannot restart after the first boot, as <code>ntldr</code>, <code>ntoskrnl.exe</code>, and <code>hal.dll</code> will be missing. You will have to restore these files from the CD to restart.
* Google Chrome marks the ISO as "dangerous", so you will have to allow it to download.
* Since this bootleg does not have winver.exe included, it had to be copied in from a genuine Windows XP RTM CD.
* The full name is set to "K".
* The computer name is set to "C".
