    Hi Ramsey,
    I have made the modified ISO, do you want to host it?
    p.s you won't have to provide support for it - refer them to here - https://www.win-raid.com/t4035f45-Windows-XP-Bit-and-Server-Bit-on-Modern-Hardware.html

      @infuscomus The best option for now would be to make a patch not a complete new ISO. So that people don't need to reinstall to try it out.
      I will follow this tropic and if people don't report any bugs then i will included it into WinXP-IE.

      @Ramsey also,these modifications are meant for allowing you to install XP on AMD Ryzen and Intel Z100/200/300 systems which don't work with XP at all by default. So people with these systems would be doing fresh installs anyway.

      @Stoneheart I could but it wont have any of the integral edition modifications because I'm not sure how Ramsey did those, it will only have patched ACPI generic AHCI and USB 3.0 drivers integrated.

    Ramsey, I've noticed in the last couple of versions of XP Integral I'm now getting Microsoft c++ Visual library R6034 runtime errors whenever I run a portable application. Cannot seem to fix it all? I've installed additional libraries to no avail. Mystified to it!

    Pot player has become full of malware now and it has also removed HEVC decoding at default due to some rights issues. This once great software is going down hill rapidly? Debatable to include it now in XP Integral unless older version, especially since its default auto updates?

      Ramsey · 5 years ago
      @Mark You can enable HEVC again by going to:
      Settings -> Filter Control -> Video Decoder -> HEVC; click the three dots -> Change; "Built-in FFmpeg Decoder (Recommended)" to "FFmpeg64.dll".

      And PotPlayer is not full of malware only the installer has an option to install bloatware. You can simply deselect it at the installation. If you one of this users who clicks Next Next Next then you should install https://unchecky.com

    Hi ramsey,

    regarding the generic USB 3.0 driver - based on my testing hotfix KB4230467 for ntoskrnl introduces a bug that breaks the generic USB 3.0 driver for XP

    with the previous hotfix KB4101864 the generic USB 3.0 still works.

    do you would you have any interest at all in forking a separate XP IE edition release with these patches/drivers for modern systems for those who might want to try it?

    Hello Ramsey, I am still using the 9/2015 version of the BE in my HP G62-b16SO Laptop, serial number: 4CZ038183F. Even though it recently did one curious thing: Last week one evening, I turned off my laptop normally through the "Start"-menu. The next morning my Laptop refused to Boot-up running. It only showed a small announcement in the left low corner to enter Set-Up. I did, but there was nothing wrong/nothing to be done for fixing anything (because there was nothing wrong). So, I tried to Power-up/reboot, with no success a few times, the I had to give-up.

    Took my Laptop to my friend, he Cloned the entire Hard-Drive, but another curious thing emerged: Now while the Laptop and BE seems to be working and was CLONED, I still lost some programs I had installed before. for example, Bit-Torrent, Movie-Maker, Photoshop Elements (for that one I have the Install CD, so no problem), Audiograbber, Total Video Converter (Cracked with Key), etc. Also Now I have a problem with the Audio Device: my HP is originally meant for WIN7 and HD/HDMI Audio/Video drivers, but since I already had the BE installed, I had it installed for the Analog Audio drivers too, now it´s gone (with the setup-file gone too) and I can not find such anywhere from the Internet, I only know the previous drivers for the Analog sound was some REALTEK, but I have no clue further.

    I had previously used the Analog Mini-Plugs for connecting my Laptop to my stereos for recording (with Audacity) and playback, now the only working mini-plug is the headphone/2ch-speaker. The Input Mini-plug would accept only a headset/skype mono-mic, compared it accepted the Stereo RCA->Mini-plug recording cable before. (The HDMI-connection on my Laptop was/is useless, because I don´t have the HDMI in my Stereos, so I´m not after it) I need the Driver for the Analog sound, IN and OUT with both L+R channels (stereo), otherwise no recording is possible anymore.

    Gotta let you know that Thunderbird hasn't been supporting XP since 2018.08.06 (with release of version 60.0), so you might want to either add a mention to Recommended Programs.txt that version 52.9.1 released 2018.07.10 is the lastest version of thunderbird.

    As an alternative you can mention roytam1 (from MSFN)'s unofficial XP-compatible fork of BinaryOutcast's Interlink Mail & News named generically as MailNews, which the latest version as of time of writing this can be found here: (https://msfn.org/board/topic/177125-my-build-of-new-moon-temp-name-aka-pale-moon-fork-targetting-xp/?do=findComment&comment=1170780). MailNews is basically palemoon's team response to thunderbird, which is based on the UXP platform (same as PM28).

    hi! I've been testing out XP Integral for a week or so now, and I've been loving it! I've been having one major problem though, which has been pinpointed to a problem with the OS (tried Xubuntu and played an audio file, and it worked). on my original install, I had installed revision 2.74 of the Realtek HD audio drivers which said that it was working yet was, in fact, not working. yesterday, I started again from scratch and made sure that the first thing I did was install the same drivers. however, the device status is now saying "This device cannot start. (Code 10)"

    if it's any help, I'm running a HP Pavilion a1000, which has an ASUS PTGD1-LA motherboard that has Realtek ALC880 onboard audio. I had tried the PTGD1-LA drivers before, but with no success.

      @Elly Check if the Windows Audio Service Is Started. And try out some different driver versions. I had a similar prtoblem on Windows 7 a long time ago and a different driver version fixed the problem.

      @Ramsey just checked, and Windows Audio seems to be up and running in Services. forgot to mention that I had tried both the R274 drivers and the 7514 drivers which I had gotten from this link: http://dl.drp.su/driverpacks/repack/Sounds_Realtek/Realtek/FORCED/All5x86x64/7514/Realtek-FORCED-All5x86x64-7514-drp.zip

      will have to check out some older versions, not sure which revision to downgrade to though. perhaps I'll just look for the drivers and progress until I find some that work for me? I should also mention that trying to install using wdm_r274.exe does not seem to work, as I restart my computer and the Realtek audio driver is nowhere to be seen, although installing manually makes it appear although with the error code previously mentioned.

      @Elly small update but I tried some driver revisions from as far back as 2007 but to no avail. still getting error code 10. I tried restarting the Windows Audio service to see if that would help with things but nothing there either, and I tried re-installing the OS again and then installing the drivers with no success.

      I've been at this for days and am completely stumped at this point.

    The HTTP Download link (not torrent) downloads an unknown file. It's not an ISO. Is there another link to download it as an ISO file? Thanks.

      @Gilson Weird. Using wget's spider mode proves that the http download link is in fact a 690M ISO file, thus the file exists. Here's the output: https://pastebin.com/jDp9q44m

      @Gilson I don't know, though i've noticed that downloading through chrome omits the ';' character and everything after that in the URL, thus the weird extension. The size is still equal, so all you have to do is add the .iso extension and the "Save as type" option set to "All files (*.*)"

      @Guest16346 I downloaded it earlier, tried it to put on USB on Rufus and it worked! I am installing the OS on my old laptop now. Thanks btw!

    Latest XP Integral runs superbly. It even runs smoothly on my old laptop with just 256mb ram. Thanks Mr Ramsey.

    Hi there, another new guy here.

    i'm planning to do a new project where i'll put XP in SSD. i want to make it last long. Any suggestion about TRIM support. i read it that XP doesnt support TRIM. is this an actual problem or we can just ignore it?

      @psyionx Search in the ReadMe file for SSD. ;)

      @psyionx One also has to remember that in addition to formatting/partitioning/aligning the SSD using something way newer (and better) than XP's implementation (I personally recommend doing it by GParted), defragging also has to be disabled for the SSD. You also have to keep in mind that XP does not natively support TRIM, so in order to make this work, your SSD (and the manufacturer software) needs to support TRIM alongside the AHCI controller driver.

      Samsung SSDs seem to have great support for XP. Just make sure you get an older version of Magician linked here: https://www.filehorse.com/download-samsung-magician/25943/

      ADATA SSDs also seem to have support for XP, since somehow the latest (as of time writing this - 3.0.9) SSD Toolbox still can be run on XP (at least the Professional x64 Edition which this version was tested in), if this might not work, version 2.0.1 must support XP. As a sidenote, this version is unique consdering it doesn't have an artificial vendor block when it comes to TRIMming, so this specific version can be used for any compatible SSD. Here's the link to that specific version: http://wp.xin.at/archives/829 (I also recommend reading this entire blogpost, since it features tips and tricks for XP64 mostly, but some of them also fit for regular XP32)
