Software group eXPerience have just released TinyXP rev09 to the general underground which is based upon pirated copies of Windows XP Professional SP3 contain various tools to assist in creating custom installs, recovery tools, and integrated patches. Plenty of work has gone into making TinyXP as useful as possible in as many scenarios as possible.

All the OS setup options include SP3, drivers up to May 2008, DirectX, Flash player and the Royale theme from Windows XP MCE. The BARE option is a seriously stripped-back installation of XP – no themes or games and minimal services, but there’s still enough functionality to support all hardware types, and the system footprint is tiny – only 50MB of system RAM is used on a fresh install (compare THAT to Vista.)

The main CD comes with batch files which let you create an ISO based on one of the nine installation options, as well as bunch of troubleshooting tools which have been bundled into a “Live Restore” boot option. It’s a shame Microsoft don’t include this level of customisation and troubleshooting on the regular Windows CD/DVD.

TinyXP is based on a pirated version of Windows so it’s completely illegal. Don't post it's link anywhere on the forum.

Nice is impressive, but is it allowed to be posted here? Don't get me wrong I'm not a shrew or anything, I just didn't know if it was allowed to be posted ;)

You must be talking about DSL or Damn Small Linux, which is about 40MB in size and runs without installation. I once tried, but that was just ONCE. ;)

I cannot believe this site supports comments regarding illegal software, in ANY FORM! As far as I am concerned software hackers, pirates, people who distribute malware or viruses, and all users who support and/or distribute such software should be put away for life! Better yet, line them up in front of a firing squad! I will keep an eye out to see if this post gets pulled or not, if it does not, I will request that any downloads I have offered at this site be removed and my account deleted. I do not support sites that condone this type of crap, and never will!

Dude...even I use laptop most of the times, and so do many people.
But to be honest, I don't even make so many spelling mistakes while using my phone's keyboard.

nice find... May we dont need this type of hacks further as windows 7 will use less RAM then vista and its not very far away from right now probably just 1.5 years...

eXPerience group could release their tools separately and keep them legal same like nLite and vLite.
