      @infuscomus Maybe in the future? As this is what he writes on the wiki:
      "If I have time in future, I could try to re-implement it to SCSI Miniport to support older windows."

    Thank you, Ramsey. I really appreciate these builds you publish. Windows XP is pretty much an OS I need. There are so many apps and games that I use that can only work on XP or later. It also puts my old Optiplex 790 to use.

    I would try to buy a new PC with modern hardware to install XP.
    I am still using XP and I am fond of its simplisity and clarity.
    I cannot use win10 , because of laggy response and bloated interface.

    Can anyone make a setup of new hardware intel - mobo - gpu ?

    Currently I am using H MT8300 midi tower with i7 3770 , 4gb ram, and quadro k4200 and I am happy, but I need something more powerful.
    (I cannot install PAE > 4gb on this machine , i don't know why. I have 16 gb ram installed.)

      Hi,
      the Gigabyte UD z690 ddr4 is a nice, new boards for XP.
      When you look for something more cheap,
      for sure the ASRock Fatal1ty Z370 Gaming K6 is the best.
      For this board you have to look at Ebay,
      may be together with cpu 8700k and 32 Gbyte ram,
      because this board is not produced anymore

    @Trent, about "mail client to use with Gmail", how do you mean "browser doesn't work", MyPal-v68 is automatically installed and works OK. Or you can use "360 Extreme Explorer" or "Chromium 115 for XP 20231121".
    Anyway, I think "OE Classic" is the best mail program. Perfect replacement for Outlook Express, easy to use, fast, small, secure... Try it, and let us know what you think? www.oeclassic.com

    I can't connect to the internet
    I'm installing the os on an old pc I have which I have all the drivers for and I made sure to install them after finishing with the installation of winXP IE
    when I plug in the ethernet cable I see the connection status icon in the tray doing the loading animation but it disapears after a while, when I open it before it disappears I see it setting up the local area connection and it finishes without a problem but for some reason the internet connection is always disabled
    when I go to network connections and try to enable it it always says connection failed
    I made sure my lan driver is installed and reinstalled it
    can someone help ?

      @Ahmed AbdulSamee when I found the internet explorer works I thought it might be something in the connection settings but when I try to change it's settings I get this message "the internet connection sharing computer is not configured to let network users control or disable the share internet connection. This setting can be change in the Advanced properties of the shared connection on the internet connection sharing computer" I don't know what that means :/
      Is it set up to share the internet connection of another computer ?

      @Trent I don't know much about mail clients, but I see another user (Dreamer) recommended OE Classic, which I read good things about.
      That might be worth a try!
      Actually, I haven't had any issues with Gmail in the XP-compatible web browsers I've tried lately...the latest builds of Serpent and New Moon, along with Mypal68 and Chromium 115, all work fine.

      Until a few years ago, much more outdated browsers, with old code bases, still worked fine too...that is, until Google decided to add more HTML5 'features' to the login process, which effectively shut out many browsers that would still work fine otherwise, as Gmail still supports the legacy layout that made it usable even on those ancient browsers.

    Install: Successful.... on Dell Dimension 9200. with 2.13ghz core duo, 2gb ram, shitty 7100 gs glorified display adapter using Neolithic Cable t connect to Mesolithic VGA Port and connect to modern d-sub boomer port.

    Used the patch integrator to slipstream the Intel sata/raid drivers (there are two of them in the options that are required) , generated the iso, used nlite on it, then the WinToUsb Program...  To create a slipstreamed iso on a USB Flash Drive with everything the Dell Dimension 9200 needs.  Went through install the first option worked and finally stopped the bsod.  After installing the first part, the 2nd part worked fine and akso you need to remove the flash drive after the 2nd part then plug it in after xp boots up.  I got it running on a Samsung Evo 860 SSD in the System and it boots so damn fast... even on this crappy pc I got off ebay that wae dusty af, had to clean out cpu cooler and I applied brand new thermal paste.  The machine came with the worst GPU ever made.. A Geforce 7100 gs.. lmfao..  

    Now that your amazing XP Sorcery is gracing my desktop.  What do I need to install in terms of security software so I can connect it via ethernet or is it good to go out of the box? its been 20+ years since I've used XP.. :-).

    thanks again for the great work...

    Successfully installed WIN-XP-2023-11-26 on ASRock-Z790-LiveMixer, with i9-14900K, DDR5-96GB, NVME-5.0 (Crucial-T700-2TB), graphic-GT730 (1920x1080). Installation takes 5 minutes (from RUFUS-prepared SATA-SSD) to see desktop, then about 10 minutes for updates/upgrades, next minute I surfed YouTube. Only recognized 2GB of RAM, but I was already happy. Didn't try PAE and GPT yet. Then copied NVME on 3 different other (Samsung-970, Crucial-P5, Kingston-NV2) and put them in Gigabyte-Z370 with i9-9900K, Gigabyte-H270 with i7-7700K and another ASRock-Z790-LiveMixer with i9-13900K and all worked with help of PS2 Keyboard on first boot.. But everything is not perfect.. On older boards (H61, B85, with BIOS NVME mod), only SATA-AHCI worked. Fastest startup with Z370 (about 5s), slowest with Z790 (about 3minute of darkness, don't know why, maybe too much RAM). I still have a lot of questions.. Does exist any Crucial-NVME driver, (I get strange results 10000MBs-read, only 2700MBs-write with Microsoft NVME driver and less than half with others)? Thank You Very Much!

    I think here is something you like to hack. It's the "Marine Aquarium" Screensaver from Microsoft Plus!. But it only works if the Microsoft Plus! bloatware is installed.

      Hi Ramsey,
      nice Screensaver.
      But I do not succeed with a hack, because the program asks for a lot of Registry Entries and some files. I fake all those Registry Entries, not works.
      So, the only solution is to install it via the Original setup.exe. There you can choose "Custom Setup" and then choose only the Screensavers. This works.
      I needs about 32MB on harddisk after install

      Here are the Microsoft Plus! files, fetched from *.iso

      @Dietmar I thought it would easy to cut this Plus License out of this file. 🙃 But if it is to much work, then it is not really worth it.
      The funny thing is they even protected the few extra Effects "ptransfx.dll" for the Movie Maker. 😅

      @Ramsey Hello Ramsey and Dietmar! I would really like to try this screensaver, but can't download from that site.. Can you please upload it to www.sync.com ? Its free up to 5GB and no ads or redirection, straight to link, I use it for 2 years.

      Hi,
      here it is.
      For to upload a small file to this server,
      you need at least one coffee🚣

      @Ramsey Thank you for Marine Aquarium, fits nicely in my XP-Room and water looks fresh.
      The coffee will probably arrive as soon as coffee-card is arranged, let's say it's on the way..
      Ramsey, I'm a little confused, to which of your coffee-address should be send, coffee-donuts or server-donuts?
      Dietmar, where is your coffee-address?

    Standalone installer folders  ( near the ISO )  should be all installed and added ?

    🤔🍻🍺🚬  Thanks  -

      @Grissa No they are optional. And should not be installed if you don't need it.
