  4. removing ID checking doesn't make things not intend to work on other platforms becoming work in sudden, and extensions needs coding to have proper integration to platforms they intend to support. if there is extension is not working, you may need to add code to make it work, and adding target platform ID in its manifest file.
  5. I'm failing to see why "win32" has ANYTHING to do with the recent discussion. I could care less "who" he is and whether or not his content has been deleted or not! Why? Because "win32" is *NOT* the person who started this tread! An active member since 2021 started this thread and that member, as you rightly point out, CAN post links to programs that he follows. NO DIFFERENT than those security products. The difference, as I am seeing it, is the "personality conflict" between the members doing the "liking" and the "arguing". What we have here is nothing more than "I like that member, he CAN post links. I do not like that member, he can NOT post links." Sorry, but that IS the bottom line from a "third party perspective". We have LEMMINGS on MSFN and we ALL know who they are, we know who they "like" and who they do not "like". It really is that simple.
  6. Intentionally or not, you're missing the point. Members that made contributions to MSFN can post such links. Win32 sneakily deleted everything he had, therefore him and his horde of commercial bots have no contributions to MSFN. I was given a very harsh treatment (can't say what exactly, since it's forbidden to discuss moderation), and all of that was just for posting a text that reminded a commercial, "enterprise" wording! I gave NO links at all!!!! And the product I described was 15 or 20 y.o.! Out of production! So? Any comments?
  7. I would submit that non-free products that are not being hosted on MSFN is an aspect of other threads also, not just this thread. ie, what about this thread? https://msfn.org/board/topic/184730-antimalware-firewall-and-other-security-programs-for-windows-xp-working-in-2023-and-hopefully-beyond/ I didn't look for more, that's just a popular thread that comes to mind. It does cite non-free products. ie, C = Commercial (any payment software including shareware) And even provides non-MSFN links on where to download these non-member non-free products. ie, https://msfn.org/board/topic/184730-antimalware-firewall-and-other-security-programs-for-windows-xp-working-in-2023-and-hopefully-beyond/page/7/#comment-1244949 And we all know you've seen those threads. You sign on each and every day to hunt down half a dozen posts by that (and a couple others) MSFN Members (often times from YEARS AGO), and submit your daily limit of "likes". But hey, "it's not against the rules". So "keep up the good work". You cannot have it both ways. If the thread we are in now is in some sort of "violation", then so is that security program thread. Think about it. You really cannot have it both ways.
  8. We are being solicited to pay for something which isn't even hosted on MSFN! It's not only dangerous, it's also disrespectful to the members, not to mention the complete lack of tech. support! Files at MSFN are scanned. https://msfn.org/board/topic/186670-profile-picture-is-too-small-3kb/?do=findComment&comment=1278625 By downloading from where no one knows, you'll infect your PC, or get a tracking bug.
  9. Yesterday
  10. GetNumaHighestNodeNumber is just the tip of the iceberg. If Kernel32.dll doesn't have GetNumaHighestNodeNumber, the OS doesn't support NUMA. A GetNumaHighestNodeNumber replacement stub should SetLastError(120) and return FALSE.
  11. I could solve the problem myself. If fortidrv.sys 5.4.1. is exchanged with 4.3.5 in winnt/system32/drivers, and then the service scheduler.exe is manually started by modifying registry, there is no problem with forticlient 5.4.1 on w2k exkernel. Window will stop at 98% connecting, but this is because of comctl32, it connects with success and any browser will show the results, but the best is Mypal 74.1.2. Big thanks to @blackwingcat for extended kernel!!!!!!!!!!!! Greetings from Austria, Joe
  12. For me it usually happens after waking up my monitors from sleep (on home machine this causes the primary monitor to connect back – when it goes to sleep, it disconnects from the PC, as if it was physically disconnected; on my work machine I'm not sure, it also seems to sometimes happen after waking up monitors from sleep, but none of those disconnect; installing the test version linked above immediately triggered the problem on both computers). Both of my computers have 3 monitors, with centre being primary. Both are also set up with high contrast mode and use high DPI (one has all 3 monitors at 225%, the other one at 168%). Sometimes the taskbar stops hiding on only one secondary monitor, but most often it stops hiding on both; also, sometimes when this happens, the taskbar becomes completely transparent, except for text and icons (it still receives mouse clicks in this state). The problem started with October update, and persists with KB5067036 (26200.7019). Disabling and re-enabling auto-hide makes the problem go away for a while.
  13. I don't usually use private browsing window. So I can't say anything about that. "Warning unresponsive script...": Does the page load when you press the continue button repeatedly? If so, then perhaps it indicates that the machine is just slow with the known bloated youtube pages. Do you have any add-ons that could effect this? Test with a fresh profile. I guess it isn't a ME/98 specific problem.
  14. It happens both on reboot or upon changing projection settings (Win + P) from "Second screen only" to "Extend". In my case I have a 3440x1440 primary + 1920x1080 secondary setup and it generally doesn't happen on my primary IIRC, but it happens almost always on the secondary and I have to right click -> go to SAB settings and toggle autohide off and on and then it's fixed until the next reboot/projection setting change. Is there any kind of logging/dumps I/we can send your way to potentially debug this?
  15. No idea, unfortunately. Any triggers?
  16. Any ideas why taskbars on secondary monitors aren't hiding with recent updates installed? (the above version doesn't fix this problem)
  17. Hmm, this issue is 14 years old! Try test version: https://startisback.com/StartAllBack_setup.exe
  18. I've started experiencing all kinds of problems with Dr. Web!
  19. Yes, I am! I like Extended Kernel because it solved shut down issue with my SP3, the image of which I've downloaded from http://ximonite.com/sp3/! Also, using Windows Version Spoofing as described in the guide below, I was able to install Windows 7 compatible YouTube Downloading Software and able to download videos from YouTube!
  20. Same here
  21. When installing SAB I got this Error: Exception EAccessViolation in module StartAllBackCfg.exe at 000000000000058ab25 Can someone help with this?
  22. Last week
  23. <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 21 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 725 578 KB.
  24. 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
  25. 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; }
  26. 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.
  27. 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.
  28. 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
  29. 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.
