Answer»

Could anyone please DESCRIBE to me the differences between these versions of NTOSKRNL.EXE in Windows XP? In what situation should I use each of these?

NTOSKRNL.EXE, NTKRNLMP.EXE, NTKRNLPA.EXE, NTKRPAMP.EXE2 basic types: single processor and multi processor, each type comes in non-ACPI and ACPI versions.

NTOSKRNL.EXE normal Kernel for non ACPI systems
NTKRNLPA.EXE ACPI Kernel

NTKRNLMP.EXE normal Multiprocessor Kernel
NTKRPAMP.EXE ACPI Multiprocessor Kernel If you install Windows XP on the machine it is to run on, Windows XP Setup should select correct one for your hardware configuration.  Otherwise, all bets are off. Quote

I know that the setup selects the correct one. I am making a hack/bootscreen and I NEED to know which file to REPLACE on different systems.
