TinyXP.Christmas.2008.Edition.eXPerience.iso

________________________________________________________________________ eXPerience Presents... Windows TinyXP Christmas 2008 Edition ________________________________________________________________________ Thank you for trying TinyXP Christmas 2008 Edition... There have been many versions of TinyXP in the past, but none quite like this, because in the past, TinyXP either had a lot of items removed, or it had IE7 and WMP11 added with a lot of items still left in the installation. The latest Onepiece post SP3 addon was used. This installation also includes the recently released hotfix from 17th December (KB960714). This time, windows is as stripped as possible but it does also include: Internet Explorer 7 Windows Media Player 11 DirectX Updated (including d3dx9_40.dll) Microsoft Update This is a Christmas gift! A fully updated TinyXP for 2008. ________________________________________________________________________ To install Windows TinyXP from this CD, set your PC up so it will boot from the CD-ROM in the PC's BIOS. Once you have booted from the CD, option 1 is the only option you can choose to install Windows XP. This option includes added driverpacks, but if you are there when Windows is installing, after copying files and rebooting for the first time, you will see a command window pop up, you have a 15 second timer, if you press ESC in that time, the pack currently shown on the screen will not extract, this way, you have the option to extract those driverpacks by pressing a numbered key within the 15 seconds - or not extracting the driverpacks, by pressing ESC. If you just leave the installation alone completely, all the driverpacks will extract, by default. You cannot install TinyXP as an "upgrade" from within Windows. Only install TinyXP onto a freshly formatted partition or hard disk. There is no upgrade option available in TinyXP, because the option is removed. You do not need any product key in this release - the installation of TinyXP is unattended, once you choose the drive or partition on which to install TinyXP. Installation is set to "US English". ________________________________________________________________________ When you boot from this CD you have six options: 1) Install TinyXP Christmas 2008 Edition 2) Acronis Backup + Restore 3) Windows XP - Live Environment 4) Hiren's BootCD v9.6 5) SpinRite v6.1 (Hard Disk Testing and Repair) 6) Windows Memory Diagnostics (RAM Memory Testing) Help: Option 1 - Installs Windows TinyXP Professional SP3 with all hotfixes to December 2008 - includes optional drivers. Option 2 - Backup Windows, or restore a backup to your current partition. Option 3 - This boots straight into Windows XP so you can explore your drives whilst Windows is not running. Inc. Partition Manager. Option 4 - Tests your hard disk for errors and repairs it, if possible. Option 5 - Checks your computers RAM memory for any errors. Option 6 - Boots into Hiren's Boot CD, includes dozens of rescue tools. ________________________________________________________________________ The installation of TinyXP includes the following items, which are all automatically installed along with Windows: -All Hotfixes Up To December 2008 (inc. KB960714) -DirectX DLL Libraries (24 to 40) -Internet Explorer 7 -Windows Media Player 11 [OTHER INSTALLED PROGRAMS] -AllSnap v1.33.2 (makes all windows snap together, like in Winamp) -Everything v1.1.4.301 (Search Everything, extremely fast search tool) -Flash Player v10.0.12.36 (for YouTube and other flash based sites) -GetDiz v4.1.0.6 (default viewer for .NFO files) -HashTab v2.1.1 (shows checksums on file properties) -Prio v1.9.8.1536 (plug in, adds many features to Task Manager) -Royale Theme set as default (also includes Royale Noir) -WinRAR v3.80 (most popular compression tool) NOTE: All the Start Menu entries are removed for the above programs, simply because you do not need anything on the Start Menu for any of these programs, so the Start Menu is kept nice and tidy. All these programs are very small and all of them can be uninstalled in Add/Remove programs, but why would you ever remove any of these! If you have never tried "AllSnap" or "Everything" before, you will be pleasantly surprised. ________________________________________________________________________ Automatic Driver Installation... TinyXP includes drivers to cover the following: Chipset CPU LAN Ethernet SATA & Mass Storage Sound Cards Wireless LAN ________________________________________________________________________ DOTNETFX folder (CD) Microsoft .NET Framework (all) The included file "DOTNET.exe" is a silent installer that will install: Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 SP1 Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 SP2 Microsoft .NET Framework 3.0 SP2 Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 This silent installer of all .NET Framework updated editions is from the addon "DotNetFx_All_In_1_Addon_v2.2.7z" by jd976 To install, just double click the file once. Then a command window will appear and stay on until the installation is complete. This replaces the old "DOTNETFX" folder on the original XP CD, which only contained the now outdated .NET 1.1 and was almost as big as this all in one silent installer is that has all versions. ________________________________________________________________________ OEM folder (CD) If you want to install the drivers on this CD independently of installing Windows, this is now possible by running one BAT file. In the OEM folder on the CD you will find a file called: INSTALL DRIVERS.bat Run this INSTALL DRIVERS.bat file and sit back whilst the process unpacks the drivers, then tries to find any drivers you might need installing, then installs the drivers, then removes the initial drivers that were extracted, because they are not needed afterwards. You can run this INSTALL DRIVERS.bat file anytime, on any x86 Windows XP. Do not move the BAT file from the OEM folder. If the BAT file is not left where it is inside the OEM folder, it will not work. ________________________________________________________________________ eXPerience folder (Desktop) Most of these folders contain quick solutions to things that otherwise would be buried away in the Windows GUI or require DOS style commands. E.g. "control userpasswords2" will open the screen to change your Windows XP login password, or "intl.cpl" runs the "Regional and Language Options" from Control Panel. FOLDERS: Desktop Icon Layout - Allows you to save your icon setup on the Desktop. Driver Install Tool - explains how to install drivers "post install". Hibernation - Turns Hibernation on/off with one double click. Keyboard Settings - Quick way to open "Regional and language Options" Program Links - Download links to many great programs, all freeware. Registry Backup - Easily backup your registry in one double click. Services Configuration Files - Configure Windows to use less RAM. ShrinkXP Scripts - Removal of components whilst Windows is running. User Password - Easily change your password for Windows. ________________________________________________________________________ The breakdown of items that are removed is far too long to list here. You can easily check the 2 files in the "INFO" folder on the CD to see what exactly has been removed, or kept. There is a file for each thing, whats kept and whats removed, here on the CD: INFOWhats Kept.txt INFOWhats Removed.txt ________________________________________________________________________ Statistics: RAM Usage On First Installation............ 85 Mb WINDOWS Folder............................. 630 Mb Processes.................................. 15* *Not including "Everything.exe" and "allsnap.exe" which are uninstallable in Add/Remove programs. ________________________________________________________________________ Don't forget To Join The Forum @ SnipeR's Redemption Network: http://forum.retestrak.nl/ Enjoy this fine release from eXPerience Release Date : Christmas 2008 ________________________________________________________________________

Glad people got it in time for Christmas. Thats what its all about, Christmas. Now where's the snow...

 eXPer1ence (2008-12-23)

There is a mistake in the NFO under "Help" and this is also the same on the CD boot menu...
Where it says Hirens boot CD is option 6 - it should be option 4.
Where it says Windows Memory Diagnostics is option 4 - it should be option 6.
The functionality of the CD is not affected, it still boots into the right thing when you choose a number, just the NFO has #4 and #6 muddled up.

ppmpp (2008-12-23)

Thanks! I can scratch this off my gift wish list. ;-)
Happy Holidays

Sven the swede (2008-12-24)

Cool! I finished downloading the torrent, will install it later, although I expect no problems. I'm a big fan of your work, eXPer1ence. Everything always worked perfect.

eurotwice (2008-12-24)

Why the fuck you have to come now with a newer install !!
I just finished to put V2 on my Acer One A150, and now I see this new one.
Thank you very much for this and all the work before !!
Is there much benefits to use this version ?

meowing (2008-12-24)

Thanks but when will you ever make a Windows TinyXP Pro x64 Edition ? That's all I need..

SanctimoniousApe (2008-12-26)

Used this to move existing partition back and created new one at start of drive to install. Install proceeds to copy files to hard drive, but about 97% in it complains that it cannot copy "wmspdmoe.dll" without specifying why. I tried skipping it just for fun, but ultimately the install fails. I can see the compressed file at \ROOT\0001\I386\WMSPDMOE.DL_ using ISOBuster, so it's there. What can I do?
(And, yes, I burned at the lowest possible speed -- 4x -- onto a CR-RW).

SanctimoniousApe (2008-12-26)

Never mind - forgot the old PC I burned the disk on (my present one is giving me problems, hence why I'm doing this) had a weak power supply problem, frequently causing bad burns. I'll post again only if it persists after another burn on another machine.

winstonG (2008-12-26)

You can tell other people what to do the day you stop ripping off other peoples torrents .

Wow... this is the best gift for christmas, thanks. Arigato gozaimasu...

MDK686 (2008-12-29)

It would seem there are quite a few problems with this release, the Computer Browser service won't start even though the Server and Workstation service are both started and the Administrative Templates in gpedit.msc doesn't contain anything?.

ntoskrnl (2008-12-29)

@magunyc:
Those ones that are originally in XP suck ass... 3rd party replacements do the job way better. PerfectDisk as defrag and CCleaner as cleaner.

ninesixfan (2008-12-30)

Any idea if this will allow me to install to a USB Flash Drive, or will I need to follow these instructions to modify your ISO to work with USB Boot Drives:

dsch04 (2008-12-30)

I'm assuming you used nLite to produce this release? If so, is there any chance you would release the nLite configuration you used to produce TinyXP?
I'd like to do a similar build but with a few extra items included (UK language support, nVidia gfx driver, etc.)
Ta!

Burchill (2008-12-31)

Thank you, it's exactly what I wanted.

irontowngeek (2009-01-02)

@ eXPerience
Can you change the default Admin password in this one?
I downloaded a WinXPLite version of your work and it was recommended NOT to change the Admin password.
Of course,hind sight is worth gold,and to make a long story short,I ended up within a week,people across the Net bouncing off it as a proxy.
After sniffing out the assholes,I changed the Admin password,disabled all the remote exploit doors that were enabled at installation,and within five days,my PC returned to normal,and the hits to my PC,is down to one persistent asshole.
So what gives?
I actually liked the slim OS.

meowing (2009-01-03)

Wow, irongeek, you must be a bit of an idiot, if you actually want to blame this OS for intrusion. It's the safest Win XP yet, and yet you are still able to get it broken into. Wow. Really: WOW! I can't believe how stupid some users are. You must have really done terribly idiotic things with it to open all those 'backdoors' you seem to have enabled. They aren't even there! FOOL
@eXPerience; Please, the masses await your Tiny XP x64 (the 64 bit version of this)..

irontowngeek (2009-01-03)

@ meowing,
First off,douche bag,considering the fact that NO changes to any firewall rules,and ONLY changing the "unknown" Admin password,and disabling the known Windows exploitable services from the default installation,AND NOW,the strange *.cmd file that runs on bootup.is no longer loading,plus I no longer have 75% CPU usage at idle,and no longer have HTTP proxy hits.
Trust me,I re-installed this OS,and I am getting the HTTP hits all over again,on a clean install ,and the PC at idle on my end.
I do not blame anyone,if you can read my comment,about intrusions,intrusion attempts,or hacked registries.
I asked a simple question,which any moron can see and read,and my inquiry was if the OS,may have holes,since the default method is to run as ADMIN user.
After all,it is "hacked",and something may have been over-looked.
What douche bag,runs ADMIN anyway.
You?
This is not my first eXPerience edition install,my friend.
I run MicroXP on a laptop,and I still have the 2003 Server Edition.
This ONLY pertains to the version in question.
Understand NOW,douche bag?
Or do you need pictures?
That I do believe,because you definitely can't read plain English.

meowing (2009-01-03)

Do you really think I'm going to read your response, irontownidiot ? My comment directed at you was not something to deny or refute, pal. You're an idiot; Learn how to use Google.

irontowngeek (2009-01-04)

@meowwing
Your acumen is amazing and astute.
The level of information you gave,on a level of 1 to 10,I give it a 0.1.
I disabled auto-logon my my friend.
To draw you pictures,when this version of XP was posted,it was "recommended",NOT to change the ADMIN user account password.
WHO KNOWS,what that password could be,other than the hacker who posted it.
I'm fine with that,as it needs to boot to the desktop.
The next smartest thing to do,is CHANGE the default password,from "whatever",and create a user.
"Why suggest never changing it?"
If remote access or Terminal services are enabled,the OS sends a multicast beacon to signal its on-line,and the recipient KNOWS the unknown password,what do you think?
This is not uncommon,in the network world.
I do not remember IF this was an "official" eXPerience upload.
I did not install right away.
I have used his stuff in the past,with no problems.
I find it suspect,as you would,if someone suggested not to change the ADMIN password.
What good is the OS,if this was always the case.
If I can configure his other OS's to my liking,why not this one?
All I asked WAS,"Can I change the default ADMIN password in the official so-called "eXPerience WinXP Lite.
Do you get the picture now?

leon_a_d (2009-01-05)

I have used TinyXP platinum edition 2 in the past and thought it was great! I have since lost the disk that I had it burnt to and thought I would give the Christmas edition a go. Unfortunately I get a blue screen of death after choosing option 1, the installer has loaded the initial set of drivers etc... and before I am asked where I would like to install to etc... I have a dell xps 710 which has a nvidia nforce 590 motherboard with a raid0 disk as its primary. I get the same behavior when trying to install tinyxp rev09. Any idea what I could be doing wrong? Many thanks for your help and for the continued effort in these tinyXP releases.

HellRace (2009-01-05)

lol irontowngeek, you make me giggle xD
Did you notice that those who complains about other torrents doesn't haven any torrents uploaded by themselves?
What a jerk >.>
Though you gave me a big laugh, and i lol'd :P

D.v.P (2009-01-07)

@ leon_a_d
You must load the Raid Driver from a usb-drive when the setup is loaden. you must press F7 or sth.

ntoskrnl (2009-01-07)

"the strange *.cmd file that runs on bootup.is no longer loading"
WHAT? That's the tweaks file! You fool, you disable the tweaks file! >_>
If you want to know what it does, just open it it notepad...

irontowngeek (2009-01-08)

@ntoskml
The "tweaks" file loads under ADMIN user,but fails on any other user I created.
I'm fine with that,it still runs as ADMIN user,and that is really the end of the story.
It's ailments have been fixed.
As to Hellrace,who gives a flying fuck whether any one uploads or not.
Your opinion is really worthless,as you are just a goofy dweeb,who wants to chime in about nothing,and had nothing to add.
You're the worse kind of offender.
In retrospective,running these "hacked" OS's,whether good or bad,doesn't' offer that much benefit to me,to even bother with.

 eXPer1ence (2009-01-08)

Yes there is a batch file in the Start Menu > Startup folder. It runs once on the first login.
Look here on the CD:
ROOT\0001\$Docs\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Startup\
There it is. Look at the last line - it deletes itself.
So then no, there arn't files like that running on startup - only the first startup because it has to apply tweaks and do whatever else, run the driverpacks finisher.

physixmaster (2009-01-10)

If you havent uploaded anything you should not be able to make comments.

irontowngeek (2009-01-10)

@eXPerience
Thanks for your reply.
It seems my comment has drawn criticism.
None towards you,of course.
I run your stuff on two PC's,with no complains.
This one,I'm more to believe it was passed off
as one of yours.
I don't remember if it was one of your torrents.
Never the less,what ever ailed it,I fixed,but decided to install and use your 2003 Edition.
At least,I KNOW where this one came from.
Thanks again.
P.S to all others.
I'll say and speak my own mind.
Worry about your own.

bsipe9 (2009-01-11)

With so much love being shown here I hate to even pose a question, but has anyone else run into an issue with this version and memory acknowledgment? On a XP sp2 boot my one stick of 2GB is shown as such, but on this one only 1GB is shown. CPU-Z and bios show 2GB.

RolloTomasi (2009-01-11)

@ Experience. Is there an new version of Ultimate XP? I feel a reinstall coming up soon. I've been running it for two years with no problems and recommend it to my friends.

gaytorbayt (2009-01-15)

I tried installing this to a box that was made for XP.
Install kept hanging at the exact same spot several times and overheating the processor.

Omensix (2009-01-18)

eXPerience do you plan on ever making a TINY XP X64? Would really LOVE to see that happen! But otherwise keep up the good work!

bsipe9 (2009-01-19)

Still have an issue with this were XP is only recognizing 1GB of ram, whether I have 2gb or 4gb in. Yes I know XP won't use all 4, but this is a dual boot system with Vista 64.

avds (2009-01-20)

Is there anyway to enable a home network on this? as when i try the home network wizard i get an error near the end.

avds (2009-01-20)

im having a prob setting up home network, is this enabled?

Chase123 (2009-01-20)

I've got a little problem, ive been using experienes stuff for a long time and it all works great, but i was wondering if i could burn this onto a dvd instead of a CD, i've tried it before and it didnt boot, anyways it works fine with cd's but not with dvd's and i know my dvd burner works fine because i burn dvd's for my dvd player all the time, anyways any help would be appreciated, and im using Nero 7
Thanks fellow Pirates

neocodex (2009-01-27)

Can IE and WMP be completely removed in this version of TinyXP or is it better to download rev09?

dm30001 (2009-01-28)

i have rev09 and was wondering if it would actually be more responsive with indexing service reinstalled? i got this installed on my x64 phenom along with some other os's and it seems like it lags for a couple milli seconds when openeing certain files

DiscoElf (2009-01-31)

I think you mixed these three up in describing them :
Option 4 - Tests your hard disk for errors and repairs it, if possible.
Option 5 - Checks your computers RAM memory for any errors.
Option 6 - Boots into Hiren's Boot CD, includes dozens of rescue tools.
they are kind of mixed up =)) not important, we all know what you mean

meowing (2009-02-02)

Found a decent XP x64 version:

Not as Tiny as yours, but it is stripped down pretty damn well.

brady983 (2009-03-16)

Thank you very much for this torrent. Uses a lot less resources then the copies I have found so far. Faster too. Very Stable. Love that I can boot off the CD for extra troubleshooting if needed. No Trojans no viruses. Absolutely love it. If you run across the windows genuine advantage issue download this it takes care of it. The greatest version I have found so far. Thanks again.

4c2o (2009-03-20)

I can't thank you enought for those beautiful releases. Ablsolutely love them. So far I have used rev 0.9 and I'm currently testing latest micro2003 in vmware. I use them with bb4win and they have changed completely my windows experience. The live option has also saved my ass quite a few times as I use to experiment with different oses especialy linux (but always end up returning to your windows because I need to run specific apps).
Anyway, I have just one request, can we please have tiny/micro cluster server too? Or is there a way I can add clustering functionaliuty to micro2003?
Again thanks a lot for your releases, I love you ^_^

ccone (2009-03-21)

hi, thank you for this release, works quite nice so far.
I noticed the windows firewall has been removed in this version. Is there a way of reinstalling it? I kinda liked it, didn't waste much resources...
cheers

PlaidAvenger (2009-03-23)

I also miss the Windows Firewall.
Other than that, another fantastic release, thanks again eXPer1ence! :-)

animeworld (2009-03-29)

Can you make a XP/Vista/7 64 bit version, thanks.

sxp64 (2009-03-31)

It installs, but then at the end does not find a lot of stuff (paths all start with /ROOT), and this is a pretty vanilla system, so yeah, it needs work.
My installers are better; http://thepiratebay.se/torrent/4784414

sxp64 (2009-03-31)

it probably expects a C drive as its installdisk, which is pretty lame..

karlern (2009-04-01)

ty OGMOMGOMGOMG TEH SHIT!
Seriously, this is some nice shit!
Once again, you`ve done it again. Good job!

tankd0g (2009-04-05)

The XP key for this has just been blocked by Microsoft, it now triggers WGA. The same key is used in Rev 09 also. Needs to be repackaged with a valid key! If you get ahold of a valid key you can fix your installation with RockXP.

sxp64 (2009-04-08)

Damn, why did you remove Windows Firewall / Internet Connection Sharing??? This service is required if you want to share your connection via wifi.
It's not like they claim much resources..

hakuna_matata (2009-04-13)

Thank you... brilliant work again.
one feedback:-
now a days we usually burn your iso at dvd instead of cds, thereby plenty of space remains.. so, you you can make up a utility cd by adding, disk director suite etc. to have more functionality.
regards

screenmate (2009-06-27)

During installation, it is not going beyond Product Key wizard dialog. I tried vague keys but no luck. How do I get past this dialog? What key needs to be used?

ahiniboy (2009-07-21)

this doesn't have imapi
is there any way I can get imapi installed without doing a repair installation with a proper xp cd?
I really need imapi so I can burn stuff with windows media player.

Barney84 (2009-08-12)

you are right tankd0g. I have just installed and its triggering the WGA. Ive solved the problema with a toll named: RemoveWGA.exe

CanisL (2011-01-31)

Hello eXPer1ence,
i wasnt a member here at TPB till now. I only made an account just so i can say TY 2 u. So here it is:
Thank You eXPer1ence 4 this great XPs u r making! I am using rev11 (why isnt it here btw?) and its the BEST ever!!!
I will soon upg to a i5 (right now i use P4) and would really appreciate a micro7 64bit. If there is anything i can do 4 u, just say it or write to spoon@techie.com.
