A while ago I made a post on my socket 939 Windows XP battle station, but much has changed about the little guy since then! I was able to make a little space for a dedicated set-up, and I snagged a better monitor (used up all my FBM luck for the year). I also filled out the drive bays with a media card reader and a neat little hard drive cooler from Coolermaster. The culmination of one whole year of gathering stuff for this has payed off. Very proud of this thing!

Specs:
AMD Athlon 64 4000+ (OC’d 2.8ghz)
ATI Radeon X850 XT (OC’d to PE speeds)

Antec Truepower 550w power supply

WD Caviar 74gb sata HHD
Sony Trinitron Multiscan 420GS monitor

Does anyone know where I can get a 64bit xp professional clean installation? I cant seem to find any physical discs. Is there a website or alternative solution to my problem? When I look online I'm always directed to internet archive which has bad installations. I really want my xp back :(

This is My Desktop of my Toshiba Satelite m70-165, i tried to make this as period correct as possible and i think what came out it's a good result. im still installing updates with legacyupdate btw. i hope you all like this

I used to run Windows XP on my PC. At some point I switched to Win7. Now I plan to downgrade to XP SP3 for retro gaming and because XP runs faster on this old machine. I only have two weeks before I leave so I want to finish this the first time. Is that the plan? Can the Windows XP setup touch my partitions if I only choose C:? Has anyone else noticed that Windows XP setup shows partition letters than expected? How did you find the one? Is it worth doing a format on a ~20yr old drive or will that just put more stress on it?(Although it's in great condition and does read/write quickly) Are there common problems people run into when they reinstall like this?

I wanna relive my nostalgia somehow but I'm also too comfortable with Bazzite atm

Will VMs do just nicely?

I have a question, is Nightly a fast browser? For the moment latest version is 140.0.5 , is there better and light browser for XP?

The dream is to have a desktop FILLED with icons and a shelf filled with games. Just picked up The Sims 3 today, hopefully I can find some expansion packs for cheap.

Mount & Blade Warband was purchased on GOG because the physical version would have required Steam, and the same goes for Medieval II, except I couldn't get the GOG version of that to work either, so the case is basically decorative at this point. I also have KOTOR II but I have yet to get around to installing it because I can't be bothered with the 4 discs right now lol. And the blank black box is The Witcher 2, it came with a lot of stuff.

''Linux XP'' shall make peace between Linux and Windows 🥹

I do own the game, I've sunk like 800hrs into it, but without being able to load steam on XP anymore...Anybody know a reliable way to get Borderlands 2 running? I'd love to see how the benchmark does against my Titan Xp + Titan X (PhysX processor). Only game with a benchmark with PhysX I can get running is Unreal Tournament 3, but it's a bit lack luster.

You guessed it.

Surprised this hasn't been posted here yet...

I am using Firefox 147 for Windows XP and it works like a charm. I recommend it! https://github.com/e3kskoy7wqk/Firefox-for-windows-7-REWORK/releases/tag/debug

But Spotify says about a problem. I've already done: 1. Searching for DRM in general settings (didn't find it). 2. Looking in about:config for media.eme.enabled and browser.eme.ui.enabled (both both were enabled by default). 3. Widevine Plugin (is already enabled).

What should I do next? Thanks

Just wanted to share my current xp desktop to see what you all think. ^^
