      @John John, if it helps, I have used various builds of XP over the years. I can tell you that web browsing is more difficult if you don't have up-to-date certificates, but it is a bit tricky to update them (which is why I'm very grateful for the fact that an "Integral Edition" exists which has them built into the OS already). I'm going to state for the record that your POSReady 2009 ISO should be totally fine, and depending on your needs you may not even need the Integral Edition (though it comes HIGHLY recommended; Ramsey's advice is good).

      Based on a lot of testing and trial and error, the absolute lowest you can go and still have something fairly usable in a modern sense is XP SP2. Since you have a 2 GB HDD, I would consider using Windows FLP (which is based on SP2) or sticking with your POSReady 2009 (which is also very lightweight and good for kiosk PCs). XP SP2 introduced a lot of important stability fixes and core improvements over SP1, and has built-in support for a lot of things that make the user experience easier and more convenient.

      It will be difficult to use the Internet without up-to-date certificates, but thankfully there are many browsers that have modern TLS support built-in. Just about anything from roytam1 should work with no issues in XP SP2 or later, along with earlier builds of feodor2's Mypal and Centaury. Mypal 68 will also work, but on SP2 it will probably be a bit buggier. For certain sites, a Chromium-based engine works better, and in those cases I recommend the 360Chrome (360 Extreme Explorer) browser, builds of which have been maintained by NotHereToPlayGames (formerly ArcticFoxie) and Humming Owl on MSFN. In XP SP2 and SP3, versions 12 and 13 work with no issues. All versions of 360 (9.5, 11, 12, and 13) work in XP SP3 without problems.

      I hope this helps, even a little bit!

      @cmccaff1 I will give POSReady 2009 ISO a try again. After some research I found a file called rootsupd.exe that should fix certificates. Hope it works on POSReady 2009 too

      Intergral edition takes 3 GB although I disabled all features (I tried on VM)

      @John Wow...I actually wasn't aware of that! Thanks for letting me know--I've downloaded an archived version of the file from the Microsoft site and I'll be keeping it on my flash drive.

    After many years of using Windows XP, I can say without a doubt that it is still one of the best OSes out there (heck, it might still be #1 depending on what you look for in an OS). Whether you're using an old Pentium 4 with integrated graphics, or an Ivy Bridge i7 with a GTX 970, XP still gets the job done for just about anything, and is still my favorite OS for speed, customization, and stability.
    I've come to the conclusion that you can't go wrong with the majority of XP builds, but this "Integral Edition" is the one I've been sticking with for a long time, and the one I always go back to (even though I occasionally tinker with other hacked-up builds). It is great to have the most up-to-date system files possible, and updated root certificates (which makes a big difference on Chromium-based browsers, for example), along with all the other cool 'optional' stuff (I always check every single box). Other builds might be leaner, others may be bigger, but this is one you can trust, download and feel secure about what you have.
    Some features that depend on the right combination of system files and drivers (such as native MS-DOS support) may necessitate trying earlier builds, but for me it isn't worth it unless there is a critical need for them. This "Integral Edition" is a clear and true labor of love, and at the expense of sounding trite it is a dream come true to have something like this still being maintained in 2022. I especially appreciate how Ramsey goes to the lengths he does to test as much as possible before every release.
    I hope that this project will be supported as long as possible, and that people will continue to contribute to it. Someday we will probably all have to 'upgrade' for one reason or another, but I'll be sticking with XP until there's no fight left in the champ!
    Thank you very, VERY much for your efforts! You are appreciated! It is never in vain!

    Hi Ramsey
    I found that Zoom Player doesn't run chrome 49 and neither does NLite.
    What system files could it corrupt ?
    Do you have any feedback ?😇

    I installed and older version of "*Xp Integral Edition", and I remember there was an extraction *.cmd operation to do in separate folder to include, or not, some patches, fixes or tools, now I even don't find a readme in "Information folder" which could explain this... that's because the iso inside is ready to install? but the other content folders what reason to be there, apart? I was even searching for an archive link to download old versions just to compare what is "missing" (for my knowledge) here... Thanks for the attention. Regards...

      @Sebastiano That "*.cmd" file is now in the "Patch Integrator v*" folder. And the Extra folder is for the stuff that's not included in the ISO file because most user won't need it.

      @Ramsey Hi Ramsey,
      add my acpi.sys, it works even with any problems with the DSDT table
      and always gives that everything is fullfilled^^ with acpi.
      It is the acpi.sys, which I send to Ed here

      @Dietmar Is the "acpi 7777 - 2022.5.10 (v5) - MovAX" not the newest anymore?

      @Ramsey Hi Ramsey,
      this one is this acpi.sys from MovAx,
      but it also fixes unknown error in DSDT 11h and 3h
      bugcheckparameter1
      Dietmar

      PS: And via the post from Ed you just see, that it is needed.

      @Ramsey Hi Ramsey,
      Before I had winusb.de But now not.
      When you use this "new" acpi.sys as default one, XP runs on more compis, nothing bad happens to other ones, because only two tests from acpi where always answered with "yes" in this file, which gave in other cases Bsod A5, x03 or A5 x011

    Thanks for your work!
    Quick question:
    Which of the AHCI Drivers is "the best"? The MovAX driver or in my case the AMD driver?

      @Aphelion whichever works correctly for your hardware. If one doesn't work try the other.

    Dell 3581 laptop - i3 7020u. I have not been able to install the latest IE xp on this laptop (with a blank HDD). Tried different acpi files - always bsod, sometimes on 2nd stage. Has anyone had success with this cpu/chipset/laptop? Thanks.

      @Ed This could also be a SATA driver problem. Try the different backported SATA drivers.

      @infuscomus Thanks Dietmar, Infuscomus. Tried 3,4,5,A,C,D,E,H & 3,4,5,A,B,C,D,E,H ( as B automatically becomes selected when one chooses some other option). Same acpi error on 2nd stage - stop: 0 x 000000A5 (0 x 00000003,0x30494350, 0xC0000034, 0x494E495F). "A prob. has been detected & windows has shut down to protect your computer.If this is the 1st time,.....follow these steps:Bios in this system is not fully acpi compliaint. please contact ...updated Bios.If you are unable to obtain an updated bios...updated bios.If you are unable ...., you can turn off ACPI mode during text mode setup.To do this, ....install storage drivers.

      @Ed Hi Ed,
      possible, that your acpi.sys was changed to original one on second boot.
      Just replace it again.
      Make a try with this acpi.sys, you have to put it at the beginning AND also direct BEFORE 2. boot into Windows\system32\drivers on you fresh installed XP

    Greetings to all.  I have a Dell Precision M6600 laptop that i want to install XP on.  I've not been able to successfully integrate the SATA/AHCI drivers into the slipstream discs that I've made in my attempts to install Windows XP and I'm not sure what I'm doing incorrectly.  I am hoping that this version of XP will accomplish what I want to do but I'm wondering if I will still need to slip stream the drivers?   I see that there is a help file that has information on how to integrate the SATA/AHCI drivers.  Is there a way to view the help file to see how that is done or maybe someone can tell me how it works?

    Old CPU have a single core

    Recent  CPU  have  many cores _ multi cores

    What this would  mean ?

    Not understand      🚬

    A clarification    💡

      @Grissa 1 Core at 2.0GHz = 1 Microwave at 800 Wattage.
      2 Cores at 1.6GHz = 2 Microwaves at 640 Wattage.

    Hi Ramsey, I have a question I'd like to ask you.
    How do you write INF Update in winxpup.inf?
    Yours that saves time or not, such as having various tools
    I'm a newbie in programming.
    I'm trying to add it to the 5eraph Update Packs, but I don't know what to do.
    Prevent SFC Error
    Both inspection BuildCheckSum and BuildDate too.

      Ramsey
      Ramsey · 2 years ago
      @MilkChan You have to do that all manually.
      1. Extract the update with the command "KBXXXXXX.exe" /x
      2. Copy the files from the "SP3QFE" folder to the main UpdatePack folder.
      3. Copy the "KBXXXXXX.CAT" file into the UpdatePack "SVCPACK" folder.
      4. Check the "update_SP3QFE.inf" file if the update adds extra registry keys or use the Registry Changes View tool.
      5. Install the Update and get the BuildCheckSum and the BuildDate from the Registry Key "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Updates\Windows XP\".
      6. Make the necessary changes in the UpdatePack "ENTRIES*.ini" file and in the main "*.inf" file.

      I migrated you 3 posts into one, you can always edit you posts if you forgot to add something.

      @Ramsey I appreciate your advice, I updated the file of 5eraph, removed the old patch, it's a difficult task but I like it.

      That comes back to you, the only problem is that now the x64 version of the system is trying to validate the INF.
      I've tested with SFC turned off, it destroys more than the system won't copy files.

      How do I solve this problem? (The problem does not occur with Server 2003 x64)

      Update Packs This is the part I am responsible for in the XP2ESD project.

      @MilkChan Looks like an KB*.CAT file is missing in the SVCPACK folder that signs an INF file from an KB update that you included.

      @Ramsey There seems to be no missing .cat file.

      @MilkChan This error normal happens if you overwrite a default signed Windows XP ISO file but did not add the KB*.CAT file.

      What you could try is to remove the update one by one in the update pack and see where this error stops happening. Yep it suck. Welcome in the club. 😅

      @Ramsey I tried to add 1 patch with .cat file
      This item was created in the original version.
      But I don't get the weird SFC message.

      same ok
