    There's no link to version 1.5.6 in the video; everything points to version 1.6.2.

    I'm more interested in using version 1.5.6, which doesn't include POWIS.

    As I have seen on George King's profile, his last activity is 20th January 2025...
    I hope he still works on the project when he has enough time.

    Will this project support Windows 2000? Windows 2000 has gained Generic NVMe, AHCI and USB3 drivers. But text based setup is problematic. XP2ESD will very useful for this purpose.

    I have been trying to play a bit around with this project and i can't get the XP starter image to work.
    it cant login at the first boot after install and i have tried to modify the SAM after install without any luck.

    Is there a known fix for that or do i have to scrap that one from the collection?

    @George King Did you have an NTLDR missing error? I have this file on my disk, but the system does not boot.

    Hello, I liked everything in version 1.6.2, but I want the installation to be like in version 1.5.6. Please tell me what to replace for this. Thank you.

    You're talking about UEFI Class 3+, not UEFI Class 3 (without +).
