Windows XP - Winxp - Setup Guide
-
@psalmsamuel That's not true - the Win32DiskImager (recommended for Windows systems) is also running on Windows XP, they put that on the front page:
For Windows XP/Vista, please use v0.9 (in the files archive).

I'm using windows xp, and that software will not work..............I'm probably missing a few vbscripts or whatever they are called, but we don't need to exclusively use that program, when there is a freeware alternative that nobody seems to remember.................(its the same software, "hddcopy", you can use with the img file to prepare a micro SD card for the henkaku hack on the psp vita).......................(some people will backup their files, install vista or above operating system, then install the program for retropie and then downgrade back to windows xp............sometimes you have to do that, but you don't need to in this instance)
-
@psalmsamuel I'm fairly sure though that you could've just condensed this whole thing into a link to the software with some qualifying text of "you can use this if you're using XP to burn the image to your Micro SD card". There was hardly any need for all the extra info as it is all in the official docs and up to date.

(RAY MABUS of Nostradamus, begins with the DEADLY HEAD WOUND JFK Assassination Anniversary, after the Women contends for the Presidency of the USA in the election process) (Super Valis 4 SNES, matching the Raspberry Pi's Logos)
Several references to manually editing the es_config file are not need also as you can simply go to the CONFIGURATION EDITOR, "Advanced Configuration", and, "Manually edit non Retroarch configurations", to change the default core when more than one core is referenced in the configuration selection boxes there
Manually editing the "es_config" file, requires FTP to perform the same function, so that much is not as clear as in one easy place at least for me...................more complicated setups, as the current guides reference, sure that would be the place in the the guide sections here, but, just for something simply along with clarity for WINDOWS XP, I believe this thread is worth a good look (especially for people wanting to have some issues made clear)

@herb_fargus did you understand the last post at all? I got lost around the JFK references...
-
(Super Valis 4 SNES, the scale and size of "RAY MABUS" is erroneously compared to the Energy Center Tetrahedron of Nibiru in our Sun and the Earths Moon, then it is revealed as a small micro tiny black hole, relating to the Higgs Boson, at the anniversary of the JFK's Assassination)
(Clearly the Official Guides do not explain the compatibility issue many uses of Windows XP are having, that includes other issues that are not made clear. So best to address them all..............with Windows XP and Flash FTP to connect to the Raspberry PI, you can do that with a 32 bit copy of Windows XP, because I believe the Raspberry is a 64 bit operating system)
(Plus if there are any other specific Windows XP issues, that should be resolved, because I specifically tested, what matters the official guides, may not reference with Windows XP) (For the benefit of users having the same issues)

I don't know why, but I get a feel this topic will be dwelve into more % mystic references vs. actual information.
@psalmsamuel while your intent may be good, your phrasing is awkward and the formatting even more. Besides the WinXP advice for imaging the RetroPie system, your post does not add more/better information than the official documentation. And to be honest, not a lot of people are using WinXP anymore. -
(The Official Guide https://retropie.org.uk/docs/First-Installation/ ............. references the image program that does not have the right routines for windows xp 32 or 64 bit, based, on a "SHGetKnownFolderPath" error for Shell32.dll, because of some changes made from Windows Vista Onwards https://sourceforge.net/p/win32diskimager/tickets/46/ .................... a lot of people are apparently having this issue, and the Official Guide of this program working with windows xp is something I could not get to work from my end ................ hopefully I've helped Windows XP users, having the same setup problems...............there may be a workaround, but I could not find it anywhere)
(The Raspberry does identify with the Blood Red Moons, which identifies with the Jupiter Alignment 9/23, and this identifies with the DEADLY HEAD WOULD, and RAY MABUS for the Seven Years of Revelation....................JERUSALEM or the Jew are then burried, because their lack of favor with God is the rebuke of Christianity, since they are not given what they want, but in terms of the Higgs Boson, that is Something RAY MABUS = BAR JESUS, the Book of Acts has already declared)

@psalmsamuel you are messing with powers you can't possibly comprehend

Lol

I don't want to encourage like behavior from other would-be new forum members, but this was fascinating. Reminded me of having a conversation with Mindscape's Racter on the Apple II (and other platforms)--like a computerized version of Mad Libs.
