All Activity

The one missing thing has been determined, I try to add it next version.

Hello all. Windows 11 (latest update) Micro Computer I've always had my task bar on the left hand side of the screen. So, I was excited to find SAB. For the most part is it doing exactly what I wanted. Several issues though. Maybe one of the issues is caused by another App. The main issue is when I open new or different tasks Firefox, the group of tabs or tasks start dropping down. Like one space at a time. Drops one space, and it might be 5 minutes or more, it drops another space. Until they totally disappear from the task bar. What I have to do to get them back is go to properties of SAB, and click the segment box (on or off). Any thoughts on why and how to fix? Any Questions, please ask me. I have tried to make contact with SAB, but nobody is talking to me. Maybe there is nobody! If anyone knows of a contact or link for help, please let me know. Their Web page is limited. Another thing, I do not know how to do a screen print of the task bar. Suggestions? Thanks for listening, Bob

It's good with 3.9.15 Thanks so much

I don't think that option is available. It doesn't appear for me and I see more options that a regular user. You can still save a page as webpage complete in browsers, which will save the pictures.

If using Diskpart, you just make the FAT32 efi partition on a GPT disk. You don't set anything, so I'm guessing Windows (or bcdboot) just works with it as is. I think Diskpart will actually show an error message if you try to make a partition active on a GPT disk

AMD has something that mimmicks a TPM. When I was building out configuration requirements for Windows 11, I initially left AMD out because those boards didn't have a TPM. But they have something else that Win11 recognizes as a TPM. It just has a different name on the spec sheets and probably does the same thing. I actually have no experience with either those or IME and I never had to field any questions about them, even from USG/Mil clients. The only motherboard feature like that I've had to deal with was Secure Boot. So to my knowledge, I never have known anyone who ever used a TPM for anything.

Best version VLC for Win95 is 0.8.6f but you need Unicows.exe: I have this software: USB support + USBUPD MS Office 95 IE 5.5 SP2 DirectX 8.0a Winsock 2 Update (W95ws2setup.exe) Windows Installer 2.0 (Instmsia.exe) Unicows (Unicows.exe) VC6Redist (VC6RedistSetup_enu.exe) I tried versions g, h, i but runs in CMD - no access to GUI (I use GeForce 6200 PCIe card + 66.94 NVIDIA drivers)

SAB 3.9.15

W11 24H2 installed this update , drop-down menus in created toolbars stopped showing

Hmm, its almost impossible to get all with right version, unless Microsoft would release tool to make such installation / repair image. TPM, its fine in Windows 10, its not required, problem is just not logging part of starting process and provide some better error numbers and messages. TPM it be somehow able to recognize spyware, or maybe avoid it to flash bios. If would be very suspicious i would say that maybe US government asked for it, because we already have zero knowledge about what it is doing same as Managed engine, which is some small Linux running on baremetal which could do anything.. Im unsure if AMD has something as it also, but good on AMD is they have some company line of their cpus with advanced security.

Hello jumper. Thanks for taking the time to look at the drivers page. The adapter came with a CD which I used initially to install the drivers. When it didn't work, I think the first thing I did was go to the TP-Link drivers page to see if there was anything else that might. The thing is that TP-Link has different pages for each country. I don't remember seeing two different drivers when I made the attempt but if they were there it's very likely that I chose the most up to date one. I have this habit of always going for the latest drivers available. I was able to check that the file I've saved is that one, the latest. I will try to install it again using the previous one. Being two years older maybe they'll work. I certainly hope so.

/s is the destination (in MBR disk S: should be active partition) Yes - it should be the C:\Windows of the windows installation that you want to add to the bootloader Based on my limited knowledge of GPT (and this alligns with what @Tripredacus said) there is no such thing as active partition for GPT disk Instead you may have to (or maybe this will be done automatically) make a FAT32 efi partition instead, but I don't know the details about that cause I don't have much experience with GPT disks, so look that up

This one in particular wasn't even "disguised", the .js file has "browser-detect" right in its name. Watch that uBlock LOGGER and you will learn to spot these before you know it. The LOGGER even has a little arrow to click that opens the .js file in a new tab so that you can read the javascript. Reading these will not turn you into a "coder", but you will learn things to watch for. Such as the browser-detect js being discussed here (discourse) does use Firefox's user agent to define if "unsupported" but does not test for Edge or Chrome user agent. And a small list of CSS entries which define if "unsupported". I've seen more **CSS** render websites unsupported in the last couple of years than javascript functions, which is an odd twist of fate as it used to always be the other way around.

I did a search of this forum as I would think such a question would only be asked or posted here. I did find this old 2008 post https://msfn.org/board/topic/123267-how-to-save-pages-of-forum/ where a poster Kiki Burgh suggested "try clicking on Options -> Download this topic ... choose which format serves you best" Is this option still in use, where it located ! Today I tried to download a single web page https://msfn.org/board/topic/182647-my-browser-builds-part-3/page/1/ This web page I saved for offline viewing. When viewed offline the page did not have all the pictures saved instead of pictures is written Offline mode Pale Moon is currently in offline mode and can't browse the Web. Press "Try Again" to switch to online mode and reload the page. Try Again

By the way, do you know if there is any documentation or tutorial about how writing these "personal filters" ? ... I'm thinking that they can be helpful also for eliminate lots of bull**it fom other sites, like as example all the "google data thieves" scripts (googleadsense, googlesyndication, and basically every other googlecraps, just for made an example) Admitting that i can do that, my programming knowledge is very low.

Hey, for whatever reason I can't seem to install XP on this Dell XPS M1710 Laptop, I have a SSD inside and made sure to put in the correct SATA driver so it would detect it but no luck. Vista install fine and detected the SSD but not XP, is there an ISO that has pretty much all the drivers so it's guaranteed to work? TY

> VistaLover: your ublock filter work An thinking that the only unsupported thing that discourse added to their "failure-update" is something called "Relative Color Syntax", that is , as far as i found on the net, just something for derive a relative color from a standard color ... basically, something that none want, none use, none care, and appear is added just for cause problems to the users that don't want (or that cannot, for various reasons) switch to a different browser (that in almost all the cases means change also OS, and in most of these cases also change their machines) Times ago, i posted on their main site remarking this, and the reply was "just buy a new PC" ... after a similar idiotic reply, i just closed with discourse site. Anyway, your filter works, so thanks for the help

Yeah, it was a good read. Currently available in webarchive: https://web.archive.org/web/20250401024102/https://www.geocities.ws/siliconvalley/2072/whyxpbad.htm I remember those days. I was a very late adopter of XP (2003 or so), because 98 had at the time most of what I needed except (towards the end) stability. I gave up on 98 when I got to this forum. XP vanilla was indeed bad, but nlited and properly tweaked it was/is like the old 98, only more stable with and capable of running more "modern" apps (software at the time).

Been that way for a LONG time. I haven't wasted time altering a UA string for almost TWO YEARS. Sure, they often times still work, but that is OLD SCHOOL and we (all) should be learning the NEW SCHOOL methods and not hold ourselves back by not looking outside that old-school-box.

... No, they don't ; Discourse are serving a browser-feature detection script (believe it or not, this is actually the recommended way to probe a browser engine, rather than blindly block it based on its UA string) and they're looking for these features: https://arkshine.github.io/discourse-features-test/ (NB: Their announcement was recently edited to also cover "import maps" (Cr89+, Fx108+)) In a nutshell, they're dropping support for Win7/8.1 , where the last Cr and Fx supported versions are 109 and 115esr, respectively... ... Please do ; the posted custom filter blocks Discourse's browser-checking script, so your browser (FxESR-115) will be served the full-blown variant of the Discourse-based forum of interest; please be aware that while this hack currently works, it's not future proof; in, say, 6 months' time, one of the browser features they're checking for might end up in production, hence one (or more) forum function might break, to some extent ... That's the way to go , though it doesn't offer any additional clue as to why all but one of your existing logins were mysteriously removed ... Glad to know and... you're welcome ... Saluti !

There's also an article <LINK> that talks about XP being a mess(not by David Cutler). Of course, it's NOTHING compared 'modern' Windows...
