    Wow! This project is amazing! Revival one of the best OS versions from Microsoft, i have a one suggestion: Integrate and/or insert a MsDart5 (ERD5.0) tools in XP installation (or a separate partiton), for a complete setup/Maintain/Deploy this Operating system.
    Sorry for my poor english, Thanks from Brazil!

    Is it possible to create a LIVE image of Windows XP instead of the INSTALLER??

    You mean a regular capture? Pretty sure i saw sysprep tools in the folder for you to capture a manual install so that should be possible.

    If you mean a bootable version of XP instead of an installable one search for other projects like ReatogoXPE that i used back in the day.

    Yes I mean a bootable version of XP like the one inside the famous "Hiren's Boot CD", who load a Live Windows XP from a WIM file.

    Well, in the post above I put WPI version 8.5, which I use for all my windows (XP / 7/10), containing some apps that will serve as examples for your silent installers, if you want to create them.

    About apps compatible with Windows XP, here are the images of my WPI Full, with the apps I use the most. This can serve as guidance, I hope.

    Good luck!

    @George King What about a friend today I did the tests of the kernel mod that I told you and well install windows xp then mount the vhd and there replace the necessary dll with their dependencies it was windows xp professional sp3 Spanish but hehehe ... apparently that's how I say use windows server 2003 so that it works because in windows xp sp3 it only gave me a blue screen and then restarted the computer I can not see the error code thanks to the virtual machine once the blue screen comes out it restarts barely I reach half of I code as 0x000c53 or there but hey at least it informs you so that you can try windows server 2003 since this project is worth it because if it gives the compatibility already there are some captures out there but you have to know how to do it hehe good friend already here I inform you :)
