I have disabled and deleted the Classic Windows XP Install Screens with the info about XP and the blue Background. 
You will just see a black background now and the install will look similar to 2000. This saves Space and gives more 
info while installing. 

The Minimum HD and RAM Requirements have been lifted. You can try and install this on whatever machine you like now. 
High ISO Compression has been enabled to save space. 

Patches: 
TCP/IP Half-Open Connections = 100 (Default 10) 
UXTheme Patch (Allows Unsigned Themes to be applied to XP) 
Windows System File Checker Disabled (SFC)

Install Notes: 
1. Unrar the ISO from the archives using Winrar. 
2. Burn the ISO using a program such as Nero, Alcohol 120, Blindwrite, ect... (Burn at a slow Speed to ensure no errors, 4x-8x) 
3. Change Bios Priority settings so it boots from the CD-ROM Drive First. (You may be able to skip this step) 
4. Insert Disc and Reboot PC, Follow the on screen prompts and enjoy. 

Notes: 
If you are getting errors while copying files. It's your CD, not the release. Try burning it to different brand of cd/media and try burning at the slowest speed possible. 
I just tested this in VMWare and it works flawless. You should get between 16-19 Processes and under 100mb of ram usage when using the computer initially. Everything you install/use 
will obviously increase this, however its the leanest XP Copy around.
