Windows XP build 2296 is the official Beta 1 build of Windows XP, which was released in multiple languages on 31 October 2000.[1] However, out of the several language variants, only the Korean version is currently available. The Simplified Chinese, German, and Japanese language versions of this build are known to exist, but have not been publicly surfaced yet. Similarly, the IA-64 compile was released on 3 November 2000, but as of 2023 it remains unleaked.
This build was compiled in evaluation mode and as such it can be installed on the current date.

Bugs and quirks[edit | edit source]
Installation[edit | edit source]
Some devices are not compatible with this build, as it causes a bugcheck with error code BAD_POOL_CALLER
at the beginning of the graphical part of setup. If possible, it is recommended to disable the USB controller in the BIOS. This is the last build to have this bug.
[edit | edit source]
Apps that are pinned to the Start menu cannot be removed, even if the user attempts to remove them via right clicking the icon and selecting "Remove from This List".
Login screen[edit | edit source]
If the user upgrades to this build, the login screen loads the Arial font instead of the correct font (Trebuchet MS) on the first boot. It will load the correct font upon rebooting the system.
Korean version[edit | edit source]
Some places of the Korean version are left untranslated, like the graphical overlay of upgrade setup or the OOBE.
