The free Microsoft utility Windows SteadyState can be used on Windows XP Professional for Embedded Systems to prevent the OS from any changes.
It offers a write filter which will redirect all writes to a cache file which can be reset on a reboot. This will generate a fresh system on every boot.
Windows Updates can be installed even when the write protection is on. Additional security policies can be applied on the system using SteadyState.

I have to tell that I love Windows 7. That OS runs very smooth. Even the 64 bit version runs smooth. When Windows Vista came out a lot of programs wasn’t adapted yet for 64bit. Even though 64bit was allready there when XP was the king. Now most prgrams has a 64bit version. Games also run better on Windows 7. It’s almost like playing on XP. Nice work from MS after problem Vista.
