Is It Possible to Install Windows XP on a New Modern PC in 2023?
In this video I’ll show you how to install Windows XP SP3 on a modern new hardware or a new laptop. There are two issues that you will have during Windows XP installation. First is a blue screen error six zeros A5. It appears because Z390 motherboard have newer ACPI version than Windows XP supports. You can skip ACPI check by pressing F7 during installation. But when you did this, an another error will appear, six zeros 7B. 7B error appears because Windows XP doesn’t have new AHCI drivers for modern motherboards. To fix this you need to integrate AHCI driver right into Windows XP image. How to do this? I’ll show you in this video. Enjoy

During the blue setup screen, you need to continuously press F5 and then select "ACPI Multiprocessor". This will allow the recognized ram to be in the 3GB-4GB range rather than just 2.21GB

Xp is the ultimate sweetspot where retro met modern, with all the bootskins and the inexperience patchers etc it was the last OS that you could customize to look like any operating systems before it or many operating systems after it, plus being able to play anything from chips challenge from 1989 to elder scrolls skyrim from 2011 is a nice bonus

I remember being a small kid and installing windows XP in my PC...no errors, not getting stuck, just 2-3 hours of adrenaline rush. I would have freaked out if I knew that 1000 different errors could occur during installations.

Windows XP will always be the OG of all OS. Very light and always on point to the needs of users.

You probably didn't know about this, but the XP enthusiast community have gotten ACPI working on XP. They've also gotten generic AHCI, NVME and USB 3.0 support working too.

Some drivers have issues with more than 4GB of RAM so the PAE patch now lets you limit to 4GB RAM if you run into that problem.

NVIDIA GPU acceleration is still limited to maxwell and earlier though.

You should do an update on this video, XP hardware support has improved quite a bit since you made this.

Storage needs to be formatted in MBR to be detected, plus you need to include the drivers on Windows ISO.

Great video, very useful for XP enthusiasts.

Your Silicon Power ssd is recognized because it is SATA/AHCI NGFF M.2 drive (they have two notches). The other one, samsung, is not because it is strictly NVMe. There is two kind of M.2 ports : those that only support SATA & AHCI and those that do both. It is confusing because both use the exact same ports and connectors ; M key/B key/M&B Key. The only way to know is to consult the BIOS and the motherboard manual or to try both type of drives and see what works.

5:18 That message is because of how PSUs worked then. Power off wasn't software controlled in OS, but it was a electrical switch on the PSU.
So the OS shutting down quit applications, finished all writes etc., but then user had to cut the power manually.

[mrnapolean]

The message you see at 5:20 is a throwback to the early days of PCs. All 1980s and some early 90s computers did this.

[AndreiCJ]

It only sees the 120GB SSD because it is M.2 interface, but SATA controller. The other one it is NVMe and uses PCI-Ex, which XP doesn't know about, but it detects the SATA controller.

My favorite of the MS operating systems. After SP3, it rocked. I'd still be using it if MS still released security updates.

I'm happy. that I installed and activated my version of Windows XP Home in Virtualbox in March 2010. I still use that installation of XP a few times per week to play the wma copies of my LPs and CDs with WoW and TrueBass effects. That VM survived 3 desktops and 4 CPUs; Pentium 4 HT (1C2T; 3.0GHz); Phenom X3 (3C3T; 2.3GHz); Phenom II X4 (4C4T; 3.2GHz) and the Ryzen 3 2200G (4C4T; 3.7GHz OC).

Oh my God. Finally I got it. Thank you very much for the tips in your video. I spent about three days trying to install this system in a way that would work and I didn't know that I had to add the drivers using this program that you showed. After the solution you showed, I managed to do it and it worked, thank you very much... now I can make the video from Windows XP review

[kanetv]

thanks for make this video! i’ll try this method. awesome!

[saulgoodman]

Windows XP won’t load the first SSD because it is a NVMe SSD and is presumably running in NVMe mode in the BIOS while the other one is a SATA-only M.2 SSD and runs in SATA mode allowing it to be visible to Windows XP. As Windows XP doesn’t have NVMe support but it has SATA support it detects only the SATA SSD.

[kevinhanley]

I admire your determination when it's so tempting to just use a Virtual PC environment! I've never seen it load so quick! What about the frustrations of a virtual environment and using Windows XP without lagging on the graphics and play 3D games? It'd make a good video!

I went through a project getting Windows 7 to work on a modern laptop (new at the time), but that was a few years ago now, like 2018 I think. Once I got that laptop working with Win7 I made a disk image so I'd never have to go through that again.

Getting XP to work on today's hardware is way harder because there's a lot less chance that XP drivers ever existed for most of the components, or even older versions of those components that might work with an .inf hack. I'm impressed you got so far with it. Too bad about the GTX1080 not working, it would be cool to see a solution for that if there is one.
To fix the USB, you could install a USB card and then use USB devices for the network and sound (if you're out of slots).

Modern ATI/AMD video cards have open source 3D drivers for linux, so I wonder if anybody will ever use that as the basis for new WinXP compatible drivers for any of those cards. Being able to multiboot a modern system with XP alongside newer OSes would be cool.

The newest NVIDIA GPU with XP drivers is 960 I think. I have one for my multi boot machine including xp, 7, 8, and 10/11. Still think very highly of XP though the lack of security was its Achilles heel.
