I want! Is it on Usenet?
My mom has it installed on her pc - Excellent o/s installation is a piece of p155 too, pretty much self-installs itself none of the boring m$ crap, Once installed it has loads of programs utilities built in, you just need to select which to install and which theme to use, it uses some of the vista functions/icons too, Simon
It is beautiful.. when did it release?? I have a black xp version but it doesn't look like that...I think I have a older version. Gamerman is very talented.
nice
I'll let you know how it works if I every finish D/L it . :frusty:
I'm stuck @ 58 % with 2 (171) seeds and 47 ( 1781 ) peers . :lol:
is this on newsgroups anywhere
I'v only seen it on Demoniod which is a bugger as I'm Canadian so have to log on thru a proxy . :cry:Quote:

Example the ths site has the same one but better speeds . Not how I would of liked to greet njbrodeur87 on his first thread . I'm sure the mod deleted a post from another member but can't remember the posters name . Id rather my thread was mergered to his just to keep people posting and I would understand the reason .
Not trying to cause trouble as I do understand the reason and your damned if you do and damned if you don't . Right ? ;)
It is on DiDidave too
I'm on it too, Peat.Quote:

18% ATM, DL rate all over the place, but mostly a crawl.
There was only one seeding when I started, then we had weather kill the 'net for most of a day; it's been dogshit ever since.
You'll get it loaded, first, I'm sure.
Let me know how you like it. :whistling
Finally got it and it was worth the aggravation for the wallpaper alone . :w00t: I'm going to try on a used computer today but you can just insert the DVD and under Install you can find the Wallpaperpak.
Keep in mind there is a fix for the Tweak Services option and a stand alone app called Black XP Control Panel so its like three D/L's . I have the fix it's easy to do , you replace a script file to WPI before you burn the ISO ,it repairs a glitch to the tweak services option . Its made by Gamerman , bless her lil heart .
You don't need it if you don't pick the option but some of my bud's are really dumb so I 'll add it . :dabs:
Fix NFO : Update Black XP 4.0
*******************************************************************************
This is a simple update and here are directions:
Open ISO of Black XP with UltrIso, supplied here
and drag the include script to the WPIScripts folder
and click replace, then hit save.
That's it.....
This fix fixes the bug that after the script hits 100 percent
and all programs are installed it will hang at 100 percent - but only if you picked tweaks.
Thanks WarezDemon.
I 'll post the fix here or pm me for help . :)

Sometimes you just have to smile at the hard work that people go to bring a program to torrents . Since my last post Black has gone to version 4.05 and the "Final " till Dec. 07 anyway called XP Black Gold Master .
Just some minor fixes and a hoard of wallpapers , newer programs . tweakts etc. Demonwarez mentioned she replaced Windowsblinds with a older version as the new one was unstable .
Thought that was interesting , any version is worth the D/L but if bandwidth is a problem look to the Gold as it has all the new goodies and fixes . Good luck .
As a side note I found her comment here interesting but since I don't use Linux can't comment . :)
"Got tired of seeing my first release hacked with
with Beta Service pack 3. Version 1 was one of my
first major releases and had structural errors in
it. A long time has passed and I've gained in skills
to create what is now an OS that can take on Vista
in Visual effects and use virtually no resources
about the same as Suse Linux....... "
How bloated is this version of XP? Looks like it scores high on the eyecandy charts but is it at least faster and more efficient than the regular XP?
EDIT: Nevermind. Just saw the answer from the quote above.
I've looked around and it seems people are worried about malwares being preinstalled with this OS.
ur best bet is to dl it from rapidshare if u have an account. i guess u could try to get it off demonoid too...although it will take some time. Unfortunately i dunno enough about proxies to give u guy any sort of advice about that :(
i have it installed on one of my machines here at home and to be honest its not all that great. You need to have a very beefy system for it to run halfway decent-it uses up alot of resources. and if you DO have a system that can handle it...why waste ur power on black xp when u could actually be putting ur hardware to better use?
all in all black xp looks nice but runs pretty damn slow even applying every speed tweak and service disable that i can think of. you could get the skin from windowblinds and object desktop (also from stardock the windowblinds people). these two apps would provide u with the look of black xp and also the mac osx looking launchbar u see at the top of the screen in black xp.....and they would use far less resources than this blackxp will.
the only thing i can say about blackxp that i really liked was that it has ALMOST EVERY FUKKING HARDWARE DRIVER IMAGINABLE
nice rls
Malware ? Mabye only the misinformed would call a key generator malware , do you have a site or example ? I did n't have a problem installing on three machines .Quote:

Nope no Dell sound drivers as I tried but not a surprise there as thats the problem with proprietary systems . :pinch:Quote:

I know it sounds inane as hell but i suppose their worries are predicated from the fact that this is a black market sort of stuff and they can't always trust the source from there. Of course I know better.Quote:

I DLed the "thin" version of the new Black XP and Kaspersky 7.0 indicated a trojan, which I attributed to the keygen issue.Quote:

I'm an old warez player and know all about Trojans , you know you use that key at your own risk . Its funny how if you try to install an old back up program and your newly updated virus program blocks it ... Your thinking you basterds I thought it was safe . :pinch:
can someone comment on the performance of this version?
I thought I just did ? :D It has lots of eye candy and a few tweaks like Service Tuner , Boot Menu , most programs you like or would use . All Windows Service packs till Oct 07. ?Quote:

Just wish future version would not include KAS or KIS as its pointless with the black keys and all . The Trojans are a moot point as all gamermans versions have them , as their key generators . Rule of thumb is disconnect from the net ( unplug the cable ) do a clean install , setup the security of your choice . Plug in cable , then update your programs like Anti virus , Firewall, Antispy and Windows Update . Good Bye Trojan ! :dabs:
There are a few included on the DVD , 5 or 6 good ones like Norton . KIS , AVG, ZA , Nod32 or Macfee. Just be careful with the service tweaks as they can cause you trouble .
Just to clear it up , I'm using the new Black XP 4.1 Golden Master Release (16 OCT 07) . I can't find the Trojan info but will keep trying .
I love the name tho , sounds like a bad Kung Fu movie . Golden Black Master ...... I give you five fingers you feel death . Hey its my thread .........
Peat when are you going Linux? If ever?
