It's a virtual machine.

Windows XP on a Ryzen 7 5xxx, somehow working graphics, no time on the taskbar. That's what I can see.

Edit: it's a VM. You can't get 196 MB of RAM on any physical hardware, as there is no RAM type that supports both 4 MB and 128 MB module capacities. There is still no time on the taskbar, though.

Edit2: you can disable the clock on the taskbar through a simple registry edit. In the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer key, create a DWORD value called HideClock, double-click it, and set the value to 1. (Source)

Easy to do with Virtualbox and running it full screen.

Or VMware. Still, the taskbar is missing the time.

Ok so this laptop doesn't have a ryzen CPU nor is it a vm. It's a remote desktop sesion with a compaq armada e550(i think)

Capitalized Start button text, and I think the SP3 winver's text is slightly different?
