When you buy XP x64 Edition from Microsoft you'll get a rather old CD. So you go to the Windows Update website and find out you need to update your system with hundreds of patches, new drivers and so on. This update-process creates a lot of extra slack on your harddisk, backups of previous versions of numerous system-files and drivers, and roll-back options you'll never use, remain there. Superior XP (SXP64) already has the latest versions of system-files built-IN, ALL official XP x64 updates released until June 10 2009 are fully integrated!
ADDED ITEMS & FEATURES
I n t e g r a t e d (pre-installed) into this XP64 release :
- Mozilla Firefox 3.0.10, with add-ons ConfigMania and AdBlockPlus
- Flash-player
- Shockwave
- Sun Java JRE 6u14 i586 & x64
- Internet Explorer 8 (plus all security updates and some settings we prefer)
- Windows Media Player 11
plus IE8 and Firefox plugins, extra smooth/safe with tweaks.
- Quicktime Lite 2.90
- K-Lite Codec Pack (klmcodec485)
- 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
- JKDefrag64 (replaces the Disk Defragmentation tool from MS)
- ERUNT -> Auto-backups state of registry, this crucial tool in essence
replaces System Restore, and works a LOT better! Info on using ERUNT:

- Autoruns (right-click My Computer) -> Much better than using MSConfig
- PuTTy -> 64 bit SSH client, replacing telnet and hyperterminal.
- DirectX 9.26.1590 (64 bit & 32 bit)
Note that DirectX 10 for XP64 (plus a 9-10 Switcher tool)
can be found via the \Superior\ folder on your Desktop !
- 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.
* Tablet PC Style adapted from MrNxDmX's Tablet PC Style Energy Blue Theme
Addon Pack with WMP10 Skin & Fedora Inverse.
* Zune Theme from ricktendo64's Zune Theme addon.
* Windows Aero Shadow mouse pointer scheme from Windows Vista.
(note that wallpapers have been replaced by some of our own)
UXTheme.dll has been patched, you can install any theme you want!
AFTER INSTALLATION
-> Most of you need the .NET Framework install - 2.0/3.0 SP2 + 3.5 SP1
which is on the DVD/iso ( under folder \dot.NET\ ).
Simply Double-Click the .bat file in that folder and installation follows!
-> This OS boots without any graphics, because it's FASTER that way!
If you prefer the normal GUI stuff, take out /noguiboot /sos
from the boot-line in boot.ini
-> Commit Charge (Memory footprint) right after installation is ~120 MB !
-> Check the folder "Superior" on your desktop for lots of handy stuff,
like -for example- a file to set all XP x64 services to their Defaults.
