Windows XP was released by Microsoft in 2001 and became one of the most widely used desktop operating systems of its era. Its built in tour was designed to introduce features to first time users, and its opening music became familiar to anyone who explored a new PC in the 2000s. As XP aged, clips and sounds from it moved into retro computing videos and meme edits online, where they now signal nostalgia, old software and simpler internet era technology rather than a real product demonstration.

The Windows XP Tour Opening is the short startup jingle from the classic guided tour, used for nostalgia, retro PC memes and old computer throwbacks.
This five second clip is the opening music from the Windows XP tour, the built in introduction that greeted new users on early 2000s computers. It is bright, clean and unmistakably electronic, with a smooth synth swell and light chime like tones that feel optimistic rather than dramatic. There are no voices or lyrics, just a polished little fanfare designed to make the system feel modern and welcoming. Hearing it instantly signals a retro setup, an old tutorial starting, or a joke about outdated technology, which is why it lands so well as a nostalgic punchline.
