Hey maher.. I really appriciate your work .. But the June release of XP laggs my PC a lot, I will try this one now. Thx
And btw your win 7 release rock ! My laptop runs perfectly with them!

EDIT

Getting error "Unexpected end of the archive" on your aougst release , dwonloaded from rapidgator
Hey I actually had the same issue with the XP June release lagging a lot. But I honestly can't say if it was the release or not because my PC is old. I'm reverting back to Windows 7 because I think it actually runs smoother for me. I'll have to go with the 7 June release since an August release isn't posted yet.

@RandomJ and kolio - if your system can run any version of Windows 7, stay away from XP! On Windows 7 or 8, if your CPU is less than 7 years old and if you have 4 GB of memory, absolutely always use 64 bit. I firmly believe XP should be used by those whose system is too old for W7 or W8 and it is financially impossible to upgrade. My dear friends Ahmad and Topdog are perfect examples. I take comfort in the fact that the longer my friends have to wait, the better the hardware they'll buy as soon as they upgrade.

I fixed the lagging problem.. it was a skype extention for Firefox.. It was frying the CPU to 50 %. Its my sisters computer and she prefers Win XP.. Idk why. Anyway, the 32 bit xp does not detects the whole 4 gb Ram .. only 3,45. I was thinking about installing win xp sp2 x64 but I decided to stay on this version. Anyways soon I am getting a new laptop ( ASUS k55vd ) It will come with UEFI Bios and I am stuck with these new UEFI bioses.. Cuz the last time i wasnt able to boot maherz win 7 under legacy mode and it only booted in UEFI mode with disabled security boot, and then I wasnt able to active it because of the GPT partion.. so any advices would be awesome

normally UEFI BIOS is created for Windows 8 and if use other system like Windows 7, you have to disable the UEFI BIOS and Secure Boot options.

@Scarface - let me ask you something since I'm too lazy to Google this  :)   Secure boot is nothing more than a feature of UEFi, right? In other words, you can boot into your BIOS and disable Secure Boot, all the while retaining all other features. You can [for example] still create partitions larger than 2 TB.

One thing I'm seeing is that people keep getting UEFI and secure boot mixed up.

@kolio - assuming you don't already know this, you are by no means stuck with Microsoft's UEFI-based limitations. They can easily be disabled. You'll see plenty of links on Google how to do that.

Good day Maher, I have two questions
1. Can i use my own serial after downloading your copy of Windows XP SP3 (August 2013)? I lost my installation CD unfortunately
2. Do you have the Windows XP corporate students edition 32bit?
Thanks and have a great day

Hello lansongeorge :)

1. The serial that Maher includes is a VL Volume License key because his XP release is from the original untouched VL ISO of Windows XP from Microsoft.
So, if your serial is for another XP edition like Home XP, I think your serial won't work with Maher release.

2. Unfortunately, Maher doesn't do Windows XP corporate students edition. You can search for one on any torrent site.

Good luck ;)

There is no XP 2006 or 2007. XP came out in ±2001 and since then there have been service packs and updates. Do a search on any of the trillions of torrent sites and you'll easily find it.
