A fresh Install is recommended. Repair or Upgrade of existing Windows installs
has not been tested, but functionality for running setup.exe is 100% available!

Power on your PC/laptop, press the button for the system to enter BIOS.
Make sure your mainboard BIOS Version is up-to-date.
Set Power Management (ACPI) to Enabled in BIOS.

Change the Boot sequence to DVD (CDROM) first, then Save and Exit BIOS.

‘Press any key’ when asked to boot with the DVD, and after about 5 minutes
you should Quick-Format the desired storage partition for SXP64 to NTFS.

-> You only need to boot from DVD once, DON’T Press a key at the next boot !

-> You will be prompted for the Regional Settings. ALL files for Keyboards,
internationalization, input-languages are available, MUI support available!

-> Don’t take out your DVD before installation is finished. Give the computer
sufficient time to decide what it must do, a good setup takes some time.

- PSPad (5/12/2009) -> Brilliant freeware Text Editor, replacing Notepad.
Better than Editpad, textpad, notepad2 or notepad++
( notepad.exe is still there, under folder Base )

- Total Commander 7.04a (king of filemanagers, with 7zip and iso-mount plugins)

- WinRAR 3.9 x64

replaces System Restore, and works a LOT better! Info on using ERUNT:
http://www.larshederer.homepage.t-on…runt/erunt.txt

- Autoruns (right-click My Computer) -> Much better than using MSConfig

- PuTTy -> 64 bit SSH client, replacing telnet and hyperterminal.

Note that DirectX 10 for XP64 (plus a 9-10 Switcher tool)

- Cool Themes ( the Themes service needs to be started ) ..
* Embedded Theme from Windows Embedded Standard CTP Refresh.
* Energy Blue Theme Pack from Kelsenellenelvian’s True Royale Addon.
* Royale Noir from Kelsenellenelvian’s Royale Noir addon.

Addon Pack with WMP10 Skin & Fedora Inverse.

(note that wallpapers have been replaced by some of our own)

UXTheme.dll has been patched, you can install any theme you want!

- Some more gorgeous unique Desktop Wallpapers included.

- Useful extra Fonts and Cursors!
We really LOVE these effective and lightweight cursors. And we work with this
font-set because these are the ones we prefer. We’ve seen too many systemfonts
not to know what’s best for us. We also think the desktop background is really
cool and warm and has depth. We don’t want fancy-ass useless ~lol~ on our
screens, we need our machines to work for us, deliver quality and save time,
not be paintings on the wall. So, still think we could give a rats ass about
YOUR taste? Please design your own OS and push out your (ugly) preferences.
