    Hello all
    New to site today. I am trying to resurrect an old xp pro system and get all my updates. I have my original disc and product key. I am not a high level techie so I need help. I know to burn the iso for the xp pro Windows XP Professional SP3 x86 - Integral Edition 2020.4.14 (Operating Systems) download but I tried another product from a different vendor ( ALL PC World) but when I entered my original SP2 version from the burned iso file on boot up it did not recognize it. Need help.

    When I try to install the Patched version (AHCI, xHCI, 128GB) on another laptop it goes in a Blue Screen after some seconds on First Part. I tried with that two fixes, to no avail.
    IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL - 0x0A (0x08, 0x02, 0x0, 0x8080A6FC)

      @ArminC First try one patch at a time and also try different ACPI patches. This patches are no guaranty that they will work on all computers that's why i didn't integrate them by default.

      ArminC · 5 years ago
      @Ramsey Ok, so I went directly with the Vanilla one, just for test purpose. It still crashes. Laptop's spec. Do I miss something?
    • This commment is unpublished.
      Ramsey · 5 years ago
      @ArminC Then this is most likely a SATA driver problem. Try to use only the Universal SATA/AHCI driver option in the Optional Patch Integrator.

      @Ramsey Amm.. I thought about this too.. If I'm not wrong, I tried with that one too.
    • This commment is unpublished.
      ArminC · 5 years ago
      @ArminC I'll try to use just that patch to see if somehow they conflicted.
    • This commment is unpublished.
      ArminC · 5 years ago
      @Ramsey Done. Still crashes. 0x07B (0xF78d2524, 0xC034, 0x0, 0x0). Also I think the Patcher is bugged.

    @RAMSEY thanks for this release, optional components are great as some of us had problems and do not like all the new additions for all the systems we have (specially the older ones), but I miss Wifi Drivers (as Wifi XP drivers are difficult to come by), maybe they could be added as an option? Many of us do not care for a bigger iso, because we dont use CD anymore to install XP. Could you think about it?
    Of course the project is getting bigger and bigger over time, but its getting better than ever and has become my default way to install XP for a long time.

      Ramsey · 5 years ago
      @ochentay4 If you go to the Driver Pack BASE forum their you can download all the Driver Packs you want and then simply put them into the ZIP Archive file in ".\OEM\RunOnce\Programs\Driver Packs\Driver Packs v21.4.2018.7z".
    • This commment is unpublished.
      Rei · 5 years ago
      @ochentay4 Take the longer route like me & just download your Wi-Fi drivers as well as other drivers in general that you can find from your hardware manufacturer's website as they are always the latest version, then install them after you install WinXP.
      CD installations are for the few left that still use CDs to install WinXP.
      @Ramsey But I do agree that route should be abandoned as prolly every motherboard & laptop since the early 2000s already has USB ports. Most old disc drive prolly already has weak optical lens & replacing them especially for laptop models are expensive or even n/a. Or take the linux distro route by having one download for CD installation & another download for USB/DVD installer.

    I am standart user. I got stone age laptop and use xpie always(thanx for job). My problem was about 2020 3 15 version which had blue screen err.

Sorry didnt understand well about this zip file and what to do ..I will use usb method like always.

      Ramsey · 5 years ago
      @Fisherman Yes the Vanilla is the one that has no experimental Patches included like the 2020 January version and the once before. Vanilla version = Stock version / Default version / Standard version ... :)

    A suggestion for the next version of the patch integrator:

    for the USB 3.0 driver integration component -
    add registry entries for the USB 3.0 drivers into HIVESYS.INF so that on first restart during the GUI part of XP installation if you have mouse/KB plugged into any USB 3.0 ports they should work.
    • This commment is unpublished.
      Ramsey · 5 years ago
      @infuscomus You mean to put all the USB 3.0 .inf register entries directly into the HIVESYS.INF file?
    • This commment is unpublished.
      infuscomus · 5 years ago
      @Ramsey yeah, including the parts that create a service so the drivers can start themselves early
    • This commment is unpublished.
      Ramsey · 5 years ago
      @infuscomus
      If you remove the DriverPacks BASE do you still have the USB 3.0 problem at the GUI mode? I found 3 conflicts with the USB 3.0 and DriverPacks BASE.

      1. DriverPacks BASE replaces the DevicePath register entries with it's own entry at the installation stage instead of adding them to the exiting once . :@
      2. DriverPacks BASE (MassStorage Pack) has the same USB 3.0 files in this Pack and overrides some part of the patched USB 3.0 driver files at the installation stage. (doh)
      3. The DriverPacks BASE (Chipset Pack) will make the USB 3.0 for some reason unusable. (headbang)

      I could fix the problem 1 and 2. (penguin) But i don't know whats up with the Chipset Pack. (drunk)

      @Ramsey >3. The DriverPacks BASE (Chipset Pack) will make the USB 3.0 for some reason unusable. Banging head on wall
      There's a similar problem for Win2K that force-installing the chipset drivers might mess up with USB2: https://msfn.org/board/topic/179665-running-windows-2000-on-modern-motherboards-usb-issues/
      Maybe it would be a good idea to remove the Chipset Pack and instead direct the users to get them manually for ex. this for Intel chipsets: https://www.win-raid.com/t895f42-Intel-Chipset-Device-quot-Drivers-quot-INF-files.html
      I especially recommend Fernando's clean AiO pack, since you don't have to rely on the bloat Intel includes within them like the software installer. You just update the necessary devices that require it with this pack.

      @Ramsey your customizer script removed DriverPacks BASE already when I selected generic AHCI, so I hadn't encountered this problem.

      Honestly I hadn't tested with just the xHCI option selected.

      DriverPacks BASE problem -

      I think the problem for DriverPacks BASE is that there is already a amdxhc/amdhub30.sys files in DPM180421.7z (confirmed)

      Chipset drivers problem -
      although I didn't see amdxhc/amdhub30.sys specifically in Driver Packs v21.4.2018.7z but there are a bunch of USB drivers in Driver Packs v21.4.2018.7z so it'll be difficult to figure out which one breaks it.

      DriverPacks BASE solution? -
      I think a solution for a DriverPacks BASE conflict would be to rename the patched xHCI driver files to usbxhc/usbhub30.sys to avoid a conflict with the one already in there?
      or amdxhc/amdhub30 could be removed from DPM180421.7z - would anyone notice?

      on the system with broken USB -
      are you able to use a PS/2 mouse/keyboard or a remote desktop session to get access to it and check device manger?

      @Guest16346 I will remove it in the next version. I now also remember that back in 2014 some people also reported problems with the Hibernation option with this Chipset Driver Pack. (doh)

    Hey ramsey,
    Not meaning be a dkhead but i think anyone who found his way up to here in 2020 has enough amount of knowledge to install drivers themselves. The auto driver thingy that is included in the pack is installing generic drivers but not manufacturer spesific ones which usually occurs conflicts even after reinstalling correct ones.. Maybe you could use the valuable space for some other stuff that is optional. Thank you for your support, big fan of integral xp.

      @SA Sorry but cant agree with you. Network drivers are essential and you can change later if you dont like them. Networking is essential to transfer files and do stuff.

      @ochentay4 No need to be sorry friend. I agree your point as well only if the driverpack just installs network drivers. Network drivers are essential until driverpack spreads like a virus to install audio, infrared,pcmcia card readers, vga and other devices..

      @SA hi

    There are Many ways to get drivers After install Windows
    I WANT THE BEST WAY...WHAT IS IT ?
    • This commment is unpublished.
      ochentay4 · 5 years ago
      @Grissa Look for snappy drivers or snappy drivers origin.
    • This commment is unpublished.
      Rei · 5 years ago
      @Grissa The best way is to get it from the manufacturer's website. It's always the latest update. The other option is to use Windows Update or use a driver update downloader program but they are most often not the latest updates & few times can install incorrect driver for it's hardware model.

      @Grissa Or read the ReadMe file. :? You only have to search for "Driver". (doh)

      @SA New version will be out in 3 days. And that one will have no modified ACPI patch integrated by default.

    I'm having a installation problem here.

    Everything locks up in "Performing Final Task" screen when it goes trough the "Registers components" section/part.
    I have tried few times and it locks up near middle of it. I always see few ?DOS/command prompt? popping up but they are so fast that cannot see what is going in there.

    Any suggestions?

      @Smuge + I also tried to install to my old Samsung 840 PRO 128Gb and setup doesn't recognize the drive after loading the first drivers etc. It did work before on Integral Edition 2019.8.17 build.
      Some changes to Silicon Image SiI3112 (I think that's the right one) ??

      System:
      Asus A7N8X-E Deluxe
      AMD Athlon XP 3000+ (FSB400)
      1GB DDR 200 Kingston (2x512MB)
      Samsung PRO 128Gb
      Plextor PX-712A

      Lock up situation happened with same system, but instead of Samsung I used old Maxtor 80GB HDD DiamondMax Plus 9 (it's a NOS/ no errors/formatted). No other HDDs.

      @Smuge Wait for the new release next weeks . Some Patches will not be integrated by default anymore like the previous version to avoid conflicts with some computer.

    ReactOS is a piece of sh!t. Last time I played with it, nothing, I repeat NO-THING from apps to games would even run. Please don't suggest to use ReactOS software as for the common everyday Joe, ReactOS is just crap.

      Rei · 5 years ago
      @Old Man Are you talking about the ReactOS operating system itself or the Application Manager? If it's the operating system, it works fine enough when I used it a long time ago. As for the Application Manager, is as I commented below.

      @Old Man Shocking! Alpha-stage OS doesn't work like it was fully complete!
      More news at 11!
      If ROS had as much full-time devs like Linux has, the progress would be fast. I find much potential for this project as an alternative for people getting used to the Windows ecosystem and that don't want to use Linux+Wine & for legacy hardware and software.

    Hello dear Ramsey
    Downloading a program for Windows XP in 2020 is not easy because most programs are obsolete.
    Please add "ReactOS Applications Manager" to WinXP-IE
    This program works and will be constantly updated.
    Also, the ReactOS project is free and there are no worries about licensing.
    Thanks <3

      @Muhammadhussein Ammari First off, I think Ramsey already knows about ReactOS as this was already discussed before. Second, while it's true that most software no longer supports WinXP, there is always an alternatives around the corner that still works on WinXP or just use the last compatible version of said software even if it's outdated. Third, most likely the primary reason for WinXP-IE is for computers that doesn't work well or no longer supported by Win10 as well as for nostalgic purpose or those that don't like newer Windows as additional reason. Using ReactOS Application Manager may turn it into a Frankenstein OS according to Ramsey's classification, although that depends on his decision. Fourthly, while it's true that ReactOS Application Manager is an great software, the last time I used it was rather buggy with some programs crashing or freezing a few times. While that was years ago, judging by how slow the project's development is going, I don't think much has changed.

      Haha... Never had my comment in a screenshot before.
      It kinda seems like the server is down or something. And if the server is down, it may have been discontinued, maybe?

      @Ramsey I recommend taking the latest rapps.exe from the latest reactos dev build. It's supposed to be located in system32 folder, iirc.

      As much as the ReactOS Application Manager is the closest to linux app managers, the only downside is that some of the programs included are made solely for ReactOS, and I'm not aware of excluding these entries and only including general applications.
