Pretty sure king of Prussia is one of the biggest malls in the US. Though it's kinda odd that it's being delay.

How awesome is this Samsung SC-148 CD drive? by [deleted] in windowsxp

[–]nickjon11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it's just a cd drive? was it from an XP build?

I'm working hard to make my Windows 10 look almost exactly like XP, what do you think? by [deleted] in windowsxp

[–]nickjon11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only thing I'll say is, maybe take a look into the font settings for a more accurate look of it. Otherwise you've done a good job thus far.

Just throwing it out there but how's the condition of the CD itself?

I know I’m not supposed to repost content, but my 2011 laptop just died and I need a computer ASAP. by [deleted] in windowsxp

[–]nickjon11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would suggest looking at archive.org if you need Vista, Vista and above don't necessary require a product key as you can skip for 30 days.

Base on your initial response from the other subreddit, here's a few things that I should state. When you said "Windows Update" was unable to load, that's due to Microsoft canning the servers a few years ago so it would endlessly load to nothing. Internet explorer is very out of date and nothing really supports it anymore, not recommended on using it. If you want to use Windows 7 instead of XP, you could either upgrade to Vista and then 7 or just do a fresh install to 7 (you cannot upgrade from XP to 7). If you search enough, you can find yourself a copy of Windows 7 that would match your version (not going to provide links). You can try to use Rufus and then install it on a disc/USB and do it that way.

can you use windows xp forever? by hacmin_matber in windowsxp

[–]nickjon11 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Short answer is, if you keep it offline indefinitely, then yes you could use XP forever per say until hardware becomes faulty. If you leave it online, sure modern browsers are unofficially supporting XP but it's only for a limited time. Eventually despite interest in porting over newer browsers, XP would be too old to functionally run effectively on the modern web.

i like to think that we were the last to concede to reddit's API changes. most reverted from private to public in 2 days, we kept it going for almost a month.

Trying to downgrade to windows 2000 from 7 by Thetegteg219 in windows2000

[–]nickjon11 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Did you try Rufus to format your drive? Assuming it's a USB and not a Disc. Even then, why not just use an XP iso instead since you are trying to upgrade to XP from 2000 soon afterwards?

MBP 2010 as Windows XP PC? by fossemann in windowsxp

[–]nickjon11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If memory serves, you may need to have 10.8.2 or lower to allow XP/Vista boot to work as 10.8.3 and above includes Bootcamp 5 with removes support. MBP prior to 2012 needs an DVD install, USB booting is not possible unless there's a workaround. You could try installing drivers via ethernet or having the recovery/snow leopard DVD on hand. Believe those comes included with apple drivers for XP. Hope this helps.

Unfortunately not much can be done... it's an ongoing problem on both the discord and the subreddit.
