How do you remove a taskbar completely from a second monitor? I have a StartAllBack license and I had to reload my Windows 11. Due to my OLED monitor, I only had a taskbar on my secondary IPS monitor but not the OLED. I've reinstalled StartAllBack and the taskbar is on both monitors. I tried moving it off the OLED and it will only snap the borders.

It seems that im "winner" Non only Data center specific bug. There is even specific bug related to Intel 7 series of AHCI controllers, exactly one which i have: https://win2k.org/blog/2015/03/25/1896177/ %PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1E02.DeviceDesc%=Intel_msahci_Inst,PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1E02 %PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1E03.DeviceDesc%=Intel_msahci_Inst,PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1E03 You have to remove 2 lines for from inf file, because there semo Vista and later resources requested and not removed from inf for some reason..

yeah just like with "mojave"

here is latest LIMEM version... https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?p=1170414#p1170414

By whose definition? I'm pretty sure they did a research among the testers during the beta.

Can safely declare official funeral. Mid summer, not even a slightest rumour about the supposed April beta, @D.Draker's prophecy fulfilled.

After searching on My Computer, I found three versions of this package: I don't remember where I downloaded it, and I haven't tested it on Win95 yet, but if you need it, I've uploaded all three in a single archive. You can download it from there (the link is valid for a certain period): http://www.upload.ee/files/18288081/CCCP.zip.html

@reboot12 Here it is, good luck Dietmar https://www.sendspace.com/file/2kr246

@reboot12 Hi, I extracted your Bios but I dont know, where to upload it Dietmar

Greetings, dear developer Tihiy! I have a suggestion. It would be nice to include in the style windows 7 features such as hide the up button and add arrows similar to windows 7. This feature was in your OldNewExplorer program. I wrote with a translator, I apologize for the broken language.

December 25, 2026 USP 5.2 should be finished on December 25, 2026 (because it was NOT finished on January 30, 2016).

I finally managed to get Serpent/Mypal 68 to work on Windows XP SP1 (and also SP2). Mypal 68 for XP SP1: https://archive.org/details/mypal-68-for-pre-xp-sp2-systems Serpent for XP SP1: https://archive.org/details/basilisk-52-for-prexpsp2-systems The tools are in the tools folder of mypal and basilisk directories: Mypal68 rplbfile.exe kdwfix.cmd kernelxp.dll api-ms-win-core-util-l1-1-0.dll (backported for XP SP1 by using kernelxp.dll wrappers) concrt140.dll (backported for XP SP1 by using kernelxp.dll wrappers) Serpent rplbfile.exe kdwfix.cmd kernelxp.dll api-ms-win-core-util-l1-1-0.dll (backported for XP SP1 by using kernelxp.dll wrappers) This was done by using kernelxp.dll wrappers and, modifications to api-ms-win-core-util-l1-1-0.dll and concrt140.dll Mypal68 api-ms-win-core-util-l1-1-0.dll - in Hex Editor (between offset 00000360-00000420), changed from Beep.kernel32.Beep.DecodePointer.kernel32.DecodePointer.DecodeSystemPointer.kernel32.DecodeSystemPointer.EncodePointer.kernel32.EncodePointer.EncodeSystemPointer.kernel32.EncodeSystemPointer to Beep.kernelxp.Beep.DecodePointer.kernelxp.DecodePointer.DecodeSystemPointer.kernelxp.DecodeSystemPointer.EncodePointer.kernelxp.EncodePointer.EncodeSystemPointer.kernelxp.EncodeSystemPointer concrt140.dll - Change function from GetLogicalProcessorInformation to GetStdHandle Serpent api-ms-win-core-util-l1-1-0.dll - in Hex Editor (between offset 00000580-00000640), changed from Beep.kernel32.Beep.DecodePointer.kernel32.DecodePointer.DecodeSystemPointer.kernel32.DecodeSystemPointer.EncodePointer.kernel32.EncodePointer.EncodeSystemPointer.kernel32.EncodeSystemPointer to Beep.kernelxp.Beep.DecodePointer.kernelxp.DecodePointer.DecodeSystemPointer.kernelxp.DecodeSystemPointer.EncodePointer.kernelxp.EncodePointer.EncodeSystemPointer.kernelxp.EncodeSystemPointer And opening kdwfix.cmd to patch all the files to make it work on Windows XP SP1. Make sure you have rplbfile.exe, kdwfix.cmd, and kernelxp.dll on the "mypal" and "basilisk" folders. Notes kernelxp.dll stays in the "mypal" and "basilisk" directories after patching, or else it will NOT work. mypal68-xpsp1-code.txt serpent-xpsp1-code.txt

I need log from @tixemog149

Hmm, it seems that error with a met before: LIne 53 of the INF file is invalid + Inaccessible boot device 007: its something specific to Data Center (it make sense to use all cores for future migration) and nlite, or Data center itself, im not sure if problem was solved, install progressed fine with manually adding drivers - whatever it means and installed it on another machine. I checked *.inf files, im not sure which *.inf file is mean to be broken, because its the same fine with multiple drivers. Other error driver XX is corrupt regarding of Fernando: https://winraid.level1techs.com/t/problem-integration-of-ahci-drivers-in-windows-2000-failed/32970/10 Its because you are trying to install 64 bit driver instead 32 bit, but im quite sure also that driver which im using is 32bit, as other user. Maybe clue could be that every edition has their own Driver.cab, cab for Data Server is much smaller than others. So this thing is still a bit not fully discovered mumbo jumbo minefield.. I will continue with testing.. Did not yet tested NTsetup.. Another thread with same problem: Update: Finally some suckes with Advanced server iso, disk in AHCI mode is now found, when i press F7 - for no ACPI with the same BlackWingCat AHCI drivers (so driver are fine for Windows 2000 versions), with ACPI im stuck on setup loading, so problem is with ACPI. I wonder beside ACPI.SYS (for some reason in tutorial is step to make filename upppercase, i did not do that previous) there is wmacpi.sys loaded in working installation and there are hal with acpi in filename too, all of these could be maybe sort of the problem.

This is very interesting i have tried to boot from *.vhd from Grub 1/2 Grub4dos and always failed. I saw Firadisk used by some USB multiboot solution, once have different problem, it was embedded in installation cd and add problem to remove it from system and keep it bootable. Otherwise i did more experiments, i managed to fix problem where fix_hdc failed, with older Paragon 2011, it does not display Microsoft VHD loopback as critical as more modern version, its asking for Windows 2000 cd to load files from drivers.cab and i have used already updated iso with new acpi.sys and BlackWingcat ahci drivers, so i cant say if it worked because of older Paragon or update iso. But i quite sure that i did everything right with ISO AHCI and ACPI update, but it always ends up with bootscreen 007 error at the end Windows 2000 setup loading, older Paragon can specify, what exactly driver device from inf you use my device is : PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1E02 i selected driver, but its still failing. PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1e02.DeviceDesc="Intel Panther Point SATA2 controller (SCSI)" Also tried if acpi is working at least in ATA mode, but i get again loading Loading freeze, if not press F5/F7 and skip ACPI, but i can enable it later through machine type switch fine. So i would be fine, if would be able to install AHCI drivers after and boot in ATA mode and switch bios to AHCI boot.. i have tried to point system to AHCI driver and apply force it to apply on IDE controller, but it does not worked, im not sure i have to check if controller Hardware ID is the same as in case of ATA mode, with Blackwing cat AHCI drivers, but it not worked, so far. Virtualbox, yes i can switch it to AHCI mode and install it with ACPI, but after i would try to boot with different disk controller so i expect that it will fail, im not sure if can emulate some chipset, which would be same driver as real machine - after only disk controller Hardware ID would be different and maybe it will work.

Can anyone test / confirm last version of Combined Community Codec Pack that works on windows 95? according to the archive below, a late 2005 version ( 2005-11-07 ) mentions windows 95, however, i have not been able to find this anywhere on the internet, so i was hoping maybe someone can upload that if possible. I was going to use this alongside wmp 7.0 or 7.1 ( unofficially ) + L3C.exe ( mp3 plug in for wmp ), all of which have been untested so far. version 2006-07-28 mentions the pack will only install if directx 9.0 or later is present on the system, but still mentions windows 95 lower in the page: https://web.archive.org/web/20061013144045/http://www.cccp-project.net/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page windows 95 mentioned for version 2005-11-07: https://web.archive.org/web/20060523013259/http://www.cccp-project.net/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page

@Dietmar Please extract bios from this: https://dl.dell.com/FOLDER13218127M/1/Wyse_5070_1.37.0.exe

Please download test version, run DebugView https://startisback.com/StartAllBack_setup.exe and attach debug log created during install / explorer restart here please

It does not.

Hi, please could someone help with proper configuration of $VBT of CherryView VBIOS for built in LCD? My problem is that I have some old netbook TrekStor SurfTab twin 11.6 with Intel Atom x5-Z8350 CPU @ 1.44GHz. It has AMI Aptio UEFI 32-bit without CSM and without legacy VBIOS at all. Recently I got know about CSMWrap project and tried it on this machine hoping I could run at least DOS and some DOS apps/games. But there's a catch that if no VBIOS present CSMWrap use fallback SeaBIOS VBE that is very limited and cannot draw properly even most of DOS TUI programs like EDIT or file managers... CSMWrap was now extended to allow to load VBIOS images. So I downloaded the package from winraid thread [ http://winraid.level1techs.com/t/guide-transfer-of-specific-intel-orom-vbios-and-gop-vbt-settings-by-using-intel-bmp-tool/30930/288 ] and used the latest Cherry View VBIOS chv_1014.dat but it works only with attached ext. LCD via microHDMI - I got black screen on build in LCD. So I decided I need to update $VBT structure according to one that is present in UEFI GOP (I currently have dump of SurfTab UEFI image from flashROM via AMI tool). I extracted it easily but there are multiple $VBT instances under various GUIDs and I don’t know which one is really used. Next problem is that GOP’s $VBT is version 195 while all chv_101x.dat VBIOSes I found use older $VBT version 190 so I cannot easily transfer the settings from newer to older. I tried it manually with opened 2 windows of intel BMP tool and I tried to match the settings close as possible. I got partial success with modified VBIOS (manually updated $VBT 190) but still several problems: 1) I have to ext.LCD connected via microHDMI to boot on it and then when VBIOS initialize it swaps screen to built in LCD and I can disconnect the ext LCD on microHDMI until reboot. But if I boot without ext. LCD I still got black screen on built in LCD after VBIOS init so it’s not much practical. 2) The image on built in LCD after VBIOS init is rotated 180 deg upside down and I cannot see any option in intel BMP to rotate it back - any idea? 3) Tere are other issues of rendering text mode both on ext. and built in LCD that makes real usability quite low. e.g. when under DOS the text on screen reaches the bottom line, instead of scrolling up the sceen becomes entire light gray and all further text is displayed only at single bottom line - unreadable output if more lines printed. Also any program that use VESA graphics cause hang. VGA programs like Doom can run with some visual artifacts (e.g. translucent demons are white http://rayer.g6.cz/1tmp/csmwdoom.jpg ) and keyboard is not responding during the game (become responsive after Doom quits if I run it with -timedemo demo1). So I’d like to know if there’s a chance to get some newer VBIOS or configure it properly to get usable DOS machine working with built in LCD without need to connect ext. LCD…

It helped, thank you, before that i was on version 3.9.12

Is it a degradation? Try 3.9.11 https://startisback.sfo3.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com/StartAllBack_3.9.11_setup.exe

Clear data on exit. The flag doesn't work, cookies are still being left, just discovered. UPD. Never mind, started working after several re-launches.
