Windows XP build 2600.2180

Windows XP build 2600.2180 is the official RTM build of Windows XP Service Pack 2 which was released on 25 August 2004. The Professional Reduced Media Edition SKU of this build was uploaded to the Internet Archive on 25 October 2021 in both English and German languages.

This release includes multiple new features and changes.


 * The Security Center has been added, which enhances the Windows Firewall.
 * The OOBE has a new page for Automatic Updates.
 * The boot screens of all editions have been unified. Most notably, it no longer displays the SKU, and the boot screen for the Home Edition now uses a blue progress bar.
 * Native Bluetooth support has been added.
 * Improvements to wireless networking.
 * The Remote Desktop Connection has been updated to version 5.1.2600.1154.
 * If a bugcheck appears, the system now reboots automatically after the physical memory has been dumped, if set so. This can be disabled permanently in "Advanced" > "Startup and Recovery" in the System Properties, and temporarily when the dedicated option is selected in the "Advanced Startup Options" during boot.
