Well not so good anymore, PSANHost again crashed around 18:35 when it updated. The other times I manually clicked Start Antivirus, this time I let it be and it recuperated on its own. Hopefull it'll work, or something. Indeed. Avast for XP is fine, although bloated on the outside I always chose only the 4 shields in "Custom" installation and it doesn't slow down the system hardly at all. If only it wouldn't pester csrss (it usually shows the next day). Just try it OK, for science. You can delete it later.

Yes, in this case, we are only talking about the "First Edition" aka "Standard Edition". On Windows 98 Second Edition and Windows Millennium Edition, the "KMIXER" replacement is no longer required. The absence of sound with VxD drivers affects all of these operating systems.

Is that supposed to be a touch of humour? I’ll take it that way, then. My thorough analysis has already been finished in terms of Panda when I wrote my previous post. No one with real-time protection. Except some unknown, paid ones from untrusted countries. I had a long, long go with Avast in the past. The last XP-compatible version is totally bloated and crap, even Avast Free Antivirus. I wouldn’t even bother analysing the tiniest little thing anymore. Avast has been a thing of the past for me for years.

Please do, Mr. Iwearblackglassesinthemiddleofthenight. I don't see any other antivirus available for XP anymore, do you? Your analysis would also be needed to fix Avast and its belabouring of the Client Server Runtime Process (csrss) service. I find Avast better than any other really because of its 3 point protection. In the meanwhile I purged and re-instated all certificates, 2x uninstalled Panda with their uninstaller.exe and clean-installed 22.03.01 (22.03.05 is slow to start here too). So far so good.

Just converting partition to FAT will make NT4.0 unbootable. It's configured for NTFS. It's complicated with these old NT's. They're very specific. Boot loader is another problem. I'm actually in awe you managed to build the whole thing. It's quite involved I imagine. Too much for me.

You mean Cauldron Filthcare?

Extract Mypal 78.0.3 in your target folder. When starting the browser, create a new profile folder in your desired location. Then close the browser. Remove all files in your just created profile folder and copy all files from your old profile folder into it. Restatt the browser. When doing so, you won't lose anything. Additionally, I’ve created a very special user.js file that’s tailored precisely to my ageing hardware. It’s only ever loaded once, right at the first start of the browser. This is how I’ve been installing a new version of Mypal for years.

Stands FE for First Edition?

When updating to the newer version, it lost all my settings and bookmarks. I did have back up of bookmarks. I still have same problems with Cloudflare

Thanks but I am not interested in workarounds. Either the forum editor is able to process code syntax in the dedicated code block or it is simply unusuable and crap.

There is another topic about IPC-banned syntax and how to work around it. And on Android, you do need a device with a screen wider than 800 pixels or the inline editor won't display all edit buttons. (There used to always be a button to open a full-featured editor, but that is long gone.) Edit tests: start min "" cmd /c ffplay -autoexit -vf subtitles=filename=\'"Adele - Easy On Me (Live at the NRJ Awards 2021).mp4"\' "Adele - Easy On Me (Live at the NRJ Awards 2021).mp4"

@jumper Try the regular DOS command start with paramrter min and "" and cmd with slash c followed by ffplay -autoexit -vf subtitles=filename=\'"Adele - Easy On Me (Live at the NRJ Awards 2021).mp4"\' "Adele - Easy On Me (Live at the NRJ Awards 2021).mp4". I have to write this way as otherwise I get a 403 forbidden.

Many thanks @Reino for updating your forum signature, now being "My fileserver" ...

Thanks!

Subject: Panda Dome I had a few brief issues with Panda Dome 22.03.05 today. The PSANHost.exe process crashed three times. A quick restart after clearing all temporary files, and everything is back to normal. The PSANHost.exe process, which is part of Panda Dome, is known for causing problems from time to time, but to use that as a reason to declare Panda Dome’s demise - as has been celebrated in another thread here - is completely unfounded and lacks any factual basis. Problems with this process often occur when updates are being downloaded in the background from the Panda server. And you don't have to reinstall Panda Dome right away. First, a thorough analysis is necessary. Anything else is just amateurish, unscientific chit-chat. Anyway! Panda Dome has been running completely normally again for hours.

Will say, Vista being broken was likely something completely unrelated, not NT 4's fault. It really just is 7 and NT 4 disliking each other. Unfortunately I don't believe I actually installed this OS. I used a winworld image. I don't believe that I would be able to install it as it won't understand the drives, as they are all greater than 131 GB. The same thing happens in the W2K installer, and it just corrupts the drive of any partition you ask it to install to or create. Unfortunately, the actual INF file for my disk driver is mostly nonfunctional as it is a universal ATA driver (and there is no floppy drive on my computer so pressing F6 to install a driver on startup is useless), so it has to be installed with the registry, but I cannot do that on my CDs as they are single write. I have DVDs that I can use, so I might try that, but I will be gone for the next 10 days ish and wont be able to continue working on the project till then. My question would be: If I just convert the partition to FAT16 (and shrink it since its ~10 GB right now), will the operating system still boot? A lot of things could go wrong there, like the drive letter being lost, the boot sector being removed, or critical files being located in different areas. I used macrium reflect's "fix windows boot problems" utility to make NT 4 boot in the past after copying the winworld image (I think?) so I wonder if that would work here. Anyway, thanks for all the help. I'll make a post on here after I've got a working FAT16 Install and have disabled the NTFS driver, hopefully fixing my issues. Again, thanks for all the help, I really appreciate it.

Ok. Thanks! This one is working again. So it seems it really was a subtitle issue. I suppose that was due to your "scaling down to basic" since it didn't occur in version 8.1. Anyway! I'm looking forward to your next releases and perhaps one day a "scaling up to standard".

As I wrote in Anti-virus topic - if you have Panda FreeAV, you'd better update these or PSANhost starts crashing repeatedly.

This should have the fix and it will be included in the next release as well. https://files.videohelp.com/u/69760/ffmpeg-8.2-2155-1836ef9684-win32-static-xpmod-P4.7z

The contents of the updroots.sst file have been changed; the contents of the other * .sst files are unchanged.

Panda Free AV (v21-22) is out it seems, constant crashes of PSANHost, it seems to be linked to opening Serpent 52.9... Oh well.

It's no longer even possible to enter simple, harmless DOS code in the forum editor. Not in the text area, not as a code block, and not as a quote. No longer a forum for coders who want to post their code, or must.

I know this reply is extremely late as the last post was in 2017, but I think it's important to know what those three buttons do. So I will explain below:- The first left button with the Plus icon This is to direct the user to the WUD website to download the latest update lists (.ulz). Since the website is no longer available, you will receive a error message. This will be fixed in the next release. The second middle button This is to refresh the Update Lists And finally, the third right button This will display a grid menu with all Update List(s) currently installed. With option to remove any of the Update Lists.

@autodidact When testing, please use this command: I think it is a problem showing the embedded subtitle in version 8.2 as the standard command without subtitle works: Maybe you can bring yourself to build your releases the way you always have in the past. BTW, the MSFN editor is such a piece of junk. To inject this code into my post, is an absolute nightmare. I had to simplify my command. MSFN seems to consider completely harmless DOS commands to be dangerous.
