Windows Fundamentals for Legacy PCsWinFLP«) is a thin client release of the Windows NT operating system developed by Microsoft[4] and optimized for older, less powerful hardware. It was released on July 8, 2006, nearly two years after its Windows XP SP2 counterpart was released in August 2004, and is not marketed as a full-fledged general purpose operating system, although it is functionally able to perform most of the tasks generally associated with one. It includes only certain functionality for local workloads such as security, management, document viewing related tasks and the .NET Framework. It is designed to work as a client–server solution with RDP clients or other third party clients such as Citrix ICA.[citation needed] Windows Fundamentals for Legacy PCs reached end of support on April 8, 2014 along with most other Windows XP editions.

History[edit]

Windows Fundamentals for Legacy PCs was originally announced with the code name «Eiger» on 12 May 2005.[5][6][7] («Mönch» was announced as a potential follow-up project at about the same time.[8]) The name «Windows Fundamentals for Legacy PCs» appeared in a press release in September 2005, when it was introduced as «formerly code-named “Eiger”» and described as «an exclusive benefit to SA [Microsoft Software Assurance] customers».[9]

A Gartner evaluation from April 2006 stated that:

The main purpose of Windows Fundamentals for Legacy PCs (WinFLP) is to allow users running old PCs to be able to replace unsupported Windows NT Workstation v.4, Windows 95 and Windows 98 with a supported release of Windows XP (or, eventually, a version based on Windows Vista). […] Because WinFLP will have the ability to run some applications locally — including Internet Explorer, media players, Instant-Messaging clients, Java Virtual Machines, terminal emulators and ICA or Remote Desktop Protocol clients, and Microsoft Office — WinFLP can be better described as a «lean client» than a «thin client.»

— Gartner[10]

The RTM version of Windows Fundamentals for Legacy PCs, which was released on July 8, 2006, was built from the Windows XP Service Pack 2 codebase.[11] The release was announced to the press on July 12, 2006.[12] Because Windows Fundamentals for Legacy PCs comes from a codebase of 32-bit Windows XP, its service packs are also developed separately.[13] For the same reason, Service Pack 3 for Windows Fundamentals for Legacy PCs, released on October 7, 2008, is the same as Service Pack 3 for 32-bit (x86) editions of Windows XP.[13] In fact, due to the earlier release date of the 32-bit version, many of the key features introduced by Service Pack 2 for 32-bit (x86) editions of Windows XP were already present in the RTM version of Windows Fundamentals for Legacy PCs.[12] Service Pack 3 is the last released service pack for Windows Fundamentals for Legacy PCs.

In May 2011, Microsoft announced Windows Thin PC as the successor product.[14]

Technical specifications[edit]

Microsoft positions Windows Fundamentals for Legacy PCs as an operating system that provides basic computing services on older hardware, while still providing core management features of more recent Windows releases, such as Windows Firewall, Group Policy, Automatic Updates, and other management services. However, it is not considered to be a general-purpose operating system by Microsoft.[15]

Windows Fundamentals for Legacy PCs is a Windows XP Embedded derivative and, as such, it requires significantly fewer system resources than the fully featured Windows XP.[4] It also features basic networking, extended peripheral support[clarification needed], DirectX, and the ability to launch the remote desktop clients from compact discs. In addition to local applications, it offers support for those hosted on a remote server using Remote Desktop.[4] It can be installed on a local hard drive, or configured to run on a diskless workstation.[citation needed]

Hardware requirements[edit]

System requirements

CPU Pentium 233 MHz (300 MHz recommended)
Memory 64 MB (128 MB recommended)
Graphics hardware 800×600 computer monitor
Hard disk space 610 MB minimum (1GB recommended)
Network hardware Optional

Despite being optimized for older PCs, hardware requirements for Windows Fundamentals for Legacy PCs are similar to Windows XP, although it is faster running on slower clock speeds than Windows XP.[citation needed]

Limitations[edit]

Windows Fundamentals for Legacy PCs has a smaller feature set than Windows XP. For example, WinFLP does not include Paint, Outlook Express and Windows games such as Solitaire. Another limitation is the absence of the Compatibility tab in the Properties… dialog box for executable files.

Internet Explorer 8 (and 7) can be installed, but a hotfix is required for auto-complete to work in these newer versions of the browser.[16]

Availability[edit]

Windows Fundamentals for Legacy PCs was exclusively available to Microsoft Software Assurance customers, as it is designed to be an inexpensive upgrade option for corporations that have a number of Windows 9x computers, but lack the hardware necessary to support the latest Windows. It is not available through retail or OEM channels.

On October 7, 2008, Service Pack 3 for Windows Embedded for Point of Service and Windows Fundamentals for Legacy PCs was made available.[13]

On April 18, 2013, Service Pack 3 for Windows Fundamentals for Legacy PCs was made available for download again after previously having been removed from the Microsoft site.[17]

The Microsoft marketing pages for Windows Fundamentals now redirect to those of Windows Thin PC, suggesting that Windows Fundamentals is no longer available for any customers.

Windows Fundamentals for Legacy PCs has the same lifecycle policy as Windows XP; as such, its support lifespan ended on 8 April 2014.[18]

VirtualBox

I can vouch for the ISO working in VirtualBox, using the default settings for Windows XP. The ISO boots, installation works, using the provided key, and the resulting installation boots without errors.

If you are unfamiliar with FLP, or haven’t used it in a very long time (I last tried it in 2008), you might initially mistake the series of reboots and «Resetting setup flags» as some sort of loop. It isn’t. It will eventually complete.

It works on VMware, I have it running without issue. I don’t use VBox so I don’t know how to set it up on there, but the ISO works. It’s either a problem with VirtualBox or a problem with you.

There’s no working state

BSoD ahead. The ISO doesn’t working. Tested with VirtualBox, tried to installing Win NT4 and FLP on 2 VMs.
I would recommend 512M or higher and use another WinFLP ISO, but not this ISO.
But if I try again and works, I would leave a 5 stars at you.

Windows Fundamentals for Legacy PCs (FLP) — компактная операционная система, вышедшая 8 июля 2006 года.

Доступная лишь в рамках соглашения Microsoft Software Assurance, Windows Fundamentals for Legacy PCs основана на Windows XP Embedded Service Pack 2. Таким образом, компьютеры с Windows Fundamentals не слишком полезны сами по себе, но могут удаленно выполнять приложения, хранящиеся на Windows Server 2003, за счет использования функции Remote Desktop или технологии независимой компании, например Citrix ICA Client.

Особенности

Преимущества Windows Fundamentals будут очевидны для предприятий, имеющих устаревшие компьютеры, которые нельзя модернизировать до XP. Это решение позволит предприятиям пользоваться усовершенствованными возможностями системы безопасности, аналогичными тем, которыми обладают компьютеры с XP SP2, но на аппаратной основе, не способной обеспечить эффективную работу XP. Однако существуют и некоторые ограничения. Компьютеры с Windows Fundamentals предназначены только для офисных рабочих приложений общего назначения, таких как Microsoft Office и Microsoft ]]Internet Explorer]] (IE), и не могут использоваться для нужд специалистов с особыми потребностями, например графических дизайнеров, аниматоров и Web-разработчиков. Поскольку эта технология доступна лишь в рамках соглашения Software Assurance и требует наличия управляемой серверной среды, Windows Fundamentals окажется бесполезной для ограниченных в средствах малых предприятий, которые могли бы извлечь максимальную пользу из наличия операционной системы такого типа.

Windows Fundamentals for Legacy PCs включает:

  • Инструменты управления, аналогичные Windows XP SP2, что позволяет использовать для компьютеров с этой операционной системой Windows Update, Automatic Update или Systems Management Server
  • Интерфейс, аналогичный Windows XP SP2
  • Компонентную архитектуру, благодаря чему возможна установка только тех компонентов, которые нужны конкретному пользователю
  • Проактивную защиту, благодаря использованию сервисных пакетов и пакетов безопасности, а также таких инструментов, как Windows Firewall, Data Execution Prevention и Internet Explorer’s Pop-Up Blocker
