Is it enough for this?

Wait a second. You're trying to put XP on this thing? Are you out of your mind? Listen and listen well -- XP is ancient and is not equipped to handle today's hardware. Even writing XP drivers for this thing is a waste of time. Just for starters, look at your RAM and see that almost all of it is wasted - XP can't see it.

If you MUST run XP, then my suggestion is to download VMWare or Virtual Box and run it as a virtual machine. Your primary OS should be Windows 7 at the very least, although I personally recommend 10. Believe me, you have plenty of horsepower to run several copies of XP or anything else.

You also need an 64bit OS.. you're running 32bit os.. limiting your ram drastically.

Download a copy, install it and use Windows update. No need to wait for a slipstreamed copy.

Hello everyone! I've been a long time lurker of this forum but I only registered today to say good job to the OP and all who contributed for this fine project. And I also have a question, will it ever be updated? Microsoft released some security patches for WannaCry a while back and I think they should be added to this release.

As far as I know MS, after intense pressure, did indeed release an XP patch for WannaCry. I don't think they'll be releasing any more patches, let alone upgrades. XP is an ancient operating system whose time is gone. The only people who should be using it are those who are stuck with an ancient computer (15 years or older) that can't run Windows 7 or higher, and it is financially impossible for them to upgrade. Other than that there is no reason to keep running XP.

For those who need xp, here is the latest version of Maher with the patch for wannacry integrated...
I deleted a few things though. Oh, and you have to uncompress it and rebuild an iso file too.
