When installing SAB I got this Error: Exception EAccessViolation in module StartAllBackCfg.exe at 000000000000058ab25 Can someone help with this?

<OT> That turned into a full week of recreational spreadsheeting. Glenn Reeves' original 2025 .xls file size was 3.71 MB. After unlocking (Excel password lock removal has been around for years), my version is down to 24 spreadsheet tabs (and a few of those aren't needed until I hit Retirement Age) from the original 62 spreadsheet tabs. And the file size is down to 725 KB.

I wanted to open a new thread for getting forticlient 5.4.1 to run on w2k exkernel (last version). Unfortunally, I get error EX1364, but I found out that a comment here is possible for me. For a working forticlient I would need: -NdisCancelSendPackets -NdisGetPoolFromPacket -NdisIMGetCurrentPacketStack -NdisIMNotifyPnPEvent function in ndis.sys. Trying XP or even whistler ndis.sys will be followed by BSOD. For installation of forticlient 5.4.1, I had to edit the forticlient msi-file with orca and get rid of the IE8 restriction. Then, installation was possible, but it stopped and hung on "starting the services" because of the missing dependencies of fortidrv.sys. Forticlient 5.4.1. works with w7 and wxp32 and gives with both os a stable connection to my organization. Perhaps @blackwingcat can help. I tried also forticlient 4.3.5 with exkernel, it installs and works OK, no missing depends, but will loose connection immediately after having successfully connected to my organization. Perhaps also a version between 4.3.5 and 5.4.1 could fit for w2k exkernel, but I could not find an offline installer, since I am not a paying fortinet customer. Also the other versions took long time to find. Perhaps someone here has a fortinet support account and could provide some offline installers for the free forticlient versions between 4.3.5 and 5.4.1? Greetings from Austria, Joe

it sounds to me someone is trying to make a windows 2000 support for this, or at least it would go that direction i once told sam and dibya what i think about that the GetLogicalProcessorInformation is available in windows xp with SP3 that one contains also NUMA information (SYSTEM_LOGICAL_PROCESSOR_INFORMATION structure) NtQuerySystemInformation( "SystemLogicalProcessorInformation", buffer, *len, len ); maybe "SystemNumaProcessorMap": https://www.geoffchappell.com/studies/windows/km/ntoskrnl/api/ex/sysinfo/numa.htm many mothersboards dont have more of NUMA´s, it used to be an second socket for a second (or more then 2 cpu sockets) - with own wires to extra ram (like the RAMBUS-RAM (rd-ram) used to do this) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-uniform_memory_access that in win2000 ? raise questions if you want the file what was about to being made for firefox i sended you a private message it may not contain that specific function, however it shows a different way to get this value and give a idea how the ntoskrnl is holding it https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/sysinfoapi/nf-sysinfoapi-getlogicalprocessorinformation if you really want to have this reaction you have to make a ntoskrnl kernel extender here is a implementation from doxygen { ULONG MaxEntries, Node; PSYSTEM_NUMA_INFORMATION NumaInformation = (PSYSTEM_NUMA_INFORMATION)Buffer; /* Validate input size */ if (Size < sizeof(ULONG)) { return STATUS_INFO_LENGTH_MISMATCH; } NumaInformation->HighestNodeNumber = KeNumberNodes - 1; /* Compute how much entries we will be able to put in output structure */ MaxEntries = (Size - FIELD_OFFSET(SYSTEM_NUMA_INFORMATION, ActiveProcessorsAffinityMask)) / sizeof(ULONGLONG); /* Make sure we don't overflow KeNodeBlock */ if (MaxEntries > KeNumberNodes) { MaxEntries = KeNumberNodes; } /* If we have entries to write, and room for it */ if (Size >= FIELD_OFFSET(SYSTEM_NUMA_INFORMATION, ActiveProcessorsAffinityMask) && MaxEntries != 0) { /* Already set size we return */ *ReqSize = FIELD_OFFSET(SYSTEM_NUMA_INFORMATION, ActiveProcessorsAffinityMask) + MaxEntries * sizeof(ULONGLONG); /* For each node, return processor mask */ for (Node = 0; Node < MaxEntries; ++Node) { NumaInformation->ActiveProcessorsAffinityMask[Node] = KeNodeBlock[Node]->ProcessorMask; } } else { /* We only returned highest node number */ *ReqSize = sizeof(ULONG); } return STATUS_SUCCESS; }

I know this might be bit off topic but can you topic if any about vista haswell patch and what limits it got? Does it fix random launch errors and programs crashing? Is it meant to be used with other extensions or how? I cant find lot of information on it and really would like to know if it is worth it. Second system also seems interesting and I may consider creating patreon account, grab myself prepaid credit card and mess it once I got more time and motivation to work on my 7 workstation. There are few things it may permit me to run again. There seems to be lot of drama over paying for it, but I think it is fair to ask money for it, but last time I checked you needed this thing called money to live in this world. Perhaps it changed while I was not looking. Maybe someday win32s may release it for free for everyone enjoyment but they are currently WIP so either take it or leave it. It is not essential to life like water or food or shelter. What is this thing called real life . Well jokes aside as far as I am aware there is no law that requires anyone to be in any forum unless want to. I am floating on and off from msfn, well be fair I had bit more going on life recently.

Thank you for your response. I appreciate your help in confirming that this issue only occurs on my system. As you suggested, I changed the settings and tested again. I found that It only works when switching the browser to a private browsing window. It gives an script error, but the page loaded successfully. Is there any reason behind this behavior? Thank you very much.

Well it might or might not work. I looked around and Kxproject drivers are WDM (Windows driver model) based which was used from Windows 98 onward. There are some differences in WDM between 98FE and SE and those changes may break things. You can try driver and see if it causes any errors. There was also WDM update for Windows 98SE numbered Q242937/Q269601. That was included with some sound cards atleast. Not sure if 98FE had similar update. If you extract update using for 98SE it got newer wdm driver files. Yes I am totally aware you talk about 98FE and what i am getting after here is that you extract driver files from update using /c switch then attempt dirty replacing on 98FE and hopefully not hose up things. Here is US version of update I kept copy on my site since it is hardest to find considering ms never distributed it on their site (https://web.archive.org/web/20000711041313/http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q242/9/37.ASP). Anyway below is nice direct download to the update. http://nokiamies.net/files/upd/win/98SE/269601USA8.EXE I know this is not straight answer but better have kick in some direction than no kick to any direction at all. I am pretty sure there are little to none those mad-lads who insists on doing something just because (count me in to those ) , so you propably need figure stuff out yourself via trial and error. Of course I can try help best I can but I am not miracle, just ordinary boring technician. Let me know how it goes and any errors may encounter

Youtube should work in Serpent 52. The useragent override is Firefox 60 by default. general.useragent.override.youtube.com;Mozilla/5.0 (%OS_SLICE% rv:60.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/60.0 You can try at least 68 or better something like 140.

the problem is Data in that Index is not available in older version of windows, so NtQuerySystemInformation will return error.

Hello everyone, I’m currently testing Serpent 52 (Roytam1’s browser). I’ve followed all the instructions discussed in this forum, and everything seems to be working well so far. However, I’ve noticed that YouTube (both the mobile and desktop versions) does not load properly — as shown in the attached screenshots. Interestingly, the YouTube mobile site loads correctly in Firefox 52 ESR, but not in Serpent 52. Could someone please test this on their end to see if the site loads as expected? I’m wondering if this issue might be related to a specific browser setting or configuration in Serpent 52. Any feedback or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

On Windows 10 I think the profile should be at C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Supermium\User Data.

Are you using Extended Kernel? I had a similar problem when I was using it. Never found a solution to this problem, so I had to stop using Extended Kernel.

@roytam1 Can you please add more following functions to kernelxp.dll wrapper also for other apps besides Serpent/Mypal 68: SetDllDirectoryA CheckRemoteDebuggerPresent SetProcessDEPPolicy GetProcessDEPPolicy GetSystemDEPPolicy GetThreadId InitExecuteRunOnce LocaleNameToLCID

its probaly a known path - it can differ - you also can set some of these best would be to search your disc for a known and relativ unique file filename xp useally has it like at Documents and Settings\ (user like administrator or all users) there then should be something called userdata

where is the userdata stored and where do i copy it to in the portable version p when you click on the plus sign on a tab how do you get it to open on google NOT Supermium page

If by 'standalone' you mean a portable version, yes there is. If you are going to continue using Supermium, please continue this in the Supermium thread.

done that now on supermium 132.0.6834.226 (Official Build) (64-bit) thorium on youtube was fine yesterday is there a standalone for this and where is All data stored when you click on the plus sign on a tab how do you get it to open on google NOT Supermium page

That is the most recent version according to the repository on GitHub. It was released back in February though, so it's now nine months old. I would recommend switching to Supermium, which is now on version 138.

what is the latest thorium release not sure it youtube is playing up or its the brower my version is Version 130.0.6723.174 (Official Build) (64-bit)

The 'dog account' (Jaguarek62) posted on October 29th in another thread on a completely different subject, so it is still active. No forum rules have been explicitly broken here yet, and I trust people will be aware and careful about this.

I finally managed getting Serpent 52 to work stably unofficially on Windows XP RTM by using kernelxp.dll wrappers by roytam1 and ntdll.dll from XP SP1. I also finally managed getting Mypal 68 to work stably unofficially on Windows XP RTM by using kernelxp.dll wrappers by roytam1, removing manifests to mypal.exe/mozglue.dll, and using ntdll.dll from XP SP1.

It's not true, Chromium is open source, what prevents him to post Supermium here, as well? Or, maybe, we, the local peasants, aren't good enough?

@Dave-HIn addition to these several topics, including this one, MSFN is now flooded with this "win32 system" commercial advertising spam bots. The dog account, for example. It laid dormant for years. https://msfn.org/board/topic/186755-how-do-i-mod-vxkex-to-work-with-windows-8x/#findComment-1283485

It's not "false", release and instructions are two different words, and even then, no Kernels were present on MSFN! And the last "release" is obsolete as it's dated 2023, again, not present on MSFN, never was. @NotHereToPlayGames, the counter counts all visits, including the anonymous.

for doxygen the function look like this: BOOL WINAPI GetNumaHighestNodeNumber(PULONG HighestNodeNumber) { NTSTATUS Status; ULONG Length; ULONG PartialInfo[2]; // First two members of SYSTEM_NUMA_INFORMATION /* Query partial NUMA info */ //Status = NtQuerySystemInformation(SystemNumaProcessorMap, PartialInfo, sizeof(PartialInfo), &Length); // SystemNumaProcessorMap = 55, // 0x37 Status = NtQuerySystemInformation(SYSTEM_INFORMATION_CLASS)0x00000037, PartialInfo, sizeof(PartialInfo), &Length); if (!NT_SUCCESS(Status)) { return FALSE; } if (Length < sizeof(ULONG)) { return FALSE; } *HighestNodeNumber = PartialInfo[0]; return TRUE; }
