Windows XP SP3 Lite Netbook Edition (160Mb Only)

windows xp lite

This edition of windows is slipstreamed with service pack 3, and is perfect for low powered laptops, old desktops and netbooks. It is only 185mb, and when I tested it in Vmware, it took 11 mins to install. It uses 85Mb of ram on first bootup, and on face value, the normal things seem to be there e.g. games, paint, calculator etc. Obviously the upgrade feature has been removed from this cd, so you have to do a clean install.

    I can’t find the setup file.

  2. 2.maxdugan Says:

    Hi Felix, what you will find is an iso image file which you will need to burn to a cd using any iso software, thank you very much :)

    Hi,
    Does it have any serial key ?

  6. 6.maxdugan Says:

    Hi Epicap, you dont need any key, its a silent unattended installation, thank you :)

    hi,
    can any one tell how to install this edition, i have burned the iso image using iso software but it is not working

  8. 8.pisco Says:

    Burn to a CD ? a true netbook doesn’t have a cd drive, and should be booted by usb, i’ll try this image to see if all goes fine in that scenario

    Either way thnx.

    Hi, Max. Does this come with common netbook drivers integrated into the installation or should I backup my drivers and use them after the install? My netbook (HP Mini 110) came with Windows 7 Starter and it is beginning to get really slow and clunky so I thought I’d switch over to the more reliable Windows XP.

    Thanks for your help,
    Rahul.

  10. 10.maxdugan Says:

    Hi Rahul, im sorry the drivers have to be downloaded from their respective websites, print or make a list of all your drivers before installing this OS, thank you very much

  11. 11.Rahul Says:

    Will there be any discrepancy because I’m downgrading from Windows 7 Starter and the drivers I have right now were built for Windows 7?

    Thank you very much for your fast replies and help!

  12. 12.maxdugan Says:

    Hi Rahul, you cannot downgrade from Windows 7 to XP, you will need to install the OS on a freshly formatted hard disk, thank you very much

  13. 13.Rahul Says:

    Got it, Max.. but how can you install the ISO minus an optical drive? I tried making my USB flash drive bootable using the USB prep8, Bootsec, PeToUSB method after extracting the files from the ISO but it would not recognize that the ISO had Windows XP setup files in it so I couldn’t go further with that. Can you help me please? Thank you.

  14. 14.maxdugan Says:

    Hi Rahul, its not easy, it can be done though but i recommend borrowing an external optical drive to make it easier, booting from a USB will result in errors, thank you very much

  15. 15.Rahul Says:

    Can you tell me how to do it through USB please? I’m out of options..

    Thank you.

    Is this great for gaming… ex Urban Terror

  17. 17.maxdugan Says:

    HI Blubber911, i really dont recommend this OS for gaming purposes, thank you very much

  18. 18.blubber911 Says:

    why do u say that Maxdugan… its smaller than Vista.. i was able to play URT (Urban Terror) on that.. but it was crappy FPS…

  19. 19.maxdugan Says:

    Hi blubber911, this is a slimmed-down version of the OS and there might be some components that you might need for gaming (depending on the game) that might be missing, but again there’s no harm in trying, thank you very much

  20. 20.antark Says:

    blubber911, the FPS was low probably because you ran the game on a netbook. It’s not because of the OS, it’s because of the netbook that was designed for lightweight usage. Otherwise, you are right, it’s faster than Vista hehe xD Did you install the graphic drivers anyway?
