  1. Past hour
  2. Epson All-in-One ET-16650 printer and scanner, A3 format. As sold new 03-2024. The currently offered drivers still work fine in Windows XP SP3 x86, for both printing and scanning. Tested through Ethernet connection. No tweaks or hacks necessary. Unbelievable...
  3. I can confirm that OneDrive is still not working in the Extended Kernel. The Windows 7 version of OneDrive can install without incident, but gives an "Entry point not found" error, saying "The procedure entry point SspiPromptForCredentialsW could not be located in the dynamic link library credui.dll."
  4. Why does it need to be copied twice? Could the items not just be edited as they are? If not, why not?
  5. Thanks so much! Edit: The first one i tried WORKS! Thanks again!
  6. Step 3 involves copying everything extracted from your Office 2016 copy to a new folder in the desktop, while step 4 involves copying ProPlus.WW.en-US folder only to the desktop (like mentioned in the topic post, the folder's name could vary depending on the edition and language)
  7. @66cats This is all the acpi.sys files as far as i know, including the newest acpi.sys I have. https://ufile.io/xl07mr8a @Dietmar might have a newer one though.
  8. Got it; thanks. Can you clarify on the difference between step 3 and step 4?

    Dark Magic

    Can't reproduce, no reason to happen.
  10. Hello Ok thanks and no, Dark Magic is off (never enabled) I never even looked for where or how to activate it Bigger tooltips are nice, on a touch screen, or other, but not on a classic screen (even MS doesn't make them that wide) It's not really annoying But I would have preferred to have the tooltips of the same design as those of MS by default (size and especially color)
  11. I asked the director of our big PC store about the sales, he said: "it's the same, basically". People still buy lots of PCs with the OS already preinstalled, esp. laptops. German Fujitsu Notebook LIFEBOOK U7613, their ultra-light LIFEBOOK U9413, LIFEBOOK U9313X (ultra-light, silver-white convertible) are very popular here, they come Windows 11 Pro already installed.
  12. FYI, I had a "nice" conversation in the Malwarebytes Forums: https://forums.malwarebytes.com/topic/309490-have-you-all-stopped-making-updates/ Unfortunately, there won't be any further definition updates for Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware Pro 1.75.0.1300. They have deliberately stopped rolling out current definition updates for this version. After the end of support for Avast Free Antivirus 2015, Malwarebytes Anti-Malware 2.2.1.1043 and now Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware Pro 1.75.0.1300, the air is getting very, very thin for anyone who wants to run an antimalware programme with real-time protection on a machine with an SSE only CPU that is still receiving current definition updates. All in all, bad news!
  13. Today
  14. I'm sure 90s DOC is competely different than modern DOC/X formats. If he had used any sort of format over the years, it is possible to write a script or program to parse the files and put the information into a single file, or into a database to then generate a single file. I doubt there is any ready-made solutions for what you are looking for.
  15. Windows sales numbers in B2B are in the toilet. Retail seems OK but mainly driven by video games. Most productivity these days is done OS agnostic, requiring only a web browser.
  16. CPU's stuck at base clock (3.4 MHz), and doesn't want to budge. Guessing it's ACPI, but only guessing. Current ACPI.sys is 5.1.2600.7777; tried 5.2.3790.7777, but that just bluescreens. My HW is obviously unsupported, but x64 XP installed on the same box works without any issues. - Is ACPI the likely culprit? - Are there other modded ACPI.sys versions i could try? (read some, but not all of Compiling ACPI v2.0 driver for Windows XP SP3 and Windows 2003 SP2 (x32/x64) thread, mostly over my head) Any ideas welcome.
  17. Now I make a new try with the simulated opcode cmpxchg8b for the 486 cpu
  18. News about my mod uBlock Origin Legacy! I have of course noticed that there is considerable interest in my mod uBlock Origin Legacy. I have therefore addressed the problem of updating an existing installation of my mod (1.16.4.32 and higher). With the upcoming release of uBlock Origin Legacy 1.16.4.34, it will then also be possible to install this version over an existing installation of my mod. I am still in the testing phase, but everything looks good and seems to work so far. Cheers, AstroSkipper
  19. @legacyfan Personally, I've never heard of a word in my life called shakey, only shaky. Also, what's wrong with Windows 11 currently? I mean, what are your complaints now about Windows 11? It's currently at a good status, now that 2 years have passed. I'm currently at the Insider Canary Channel, so I get to know what's being baked very early. Also, in my opinion, you shouldn't be concerned about Windows as a user who loves Linux very much, and uses it. Yes, I know about MS's cloud storage, called OneDrive (which filled my desktop with trash many times, but I was still able to get rid of OneDrive nonetheless), and MS's enforced web browser, which has been shoved to our thorats since its release date, called Edge, I was able to get rid of it as well.
  20. Just to close the loop on this, I was able to figure it out, at least for Windows 7. The short answer is that the actual image(s) can be changed using a tool such as "CustomizerGod," which, along with the Windows 7 prerelease task pane background, is included with this theme package (it's about the only thing from that collection that I like, and can be used independent of the actual theme). The second piece is the text color, which cannot be changed by that application, and must be modified by a theme. Using UxTheme patcher, the stock Windows 7 theme can be modified like so: Styles > ControlPanelStyle > Tasklink > TextColor : Color font:font segoe ui 9 cleartype textcolor:color solid white >hot textcolor:color light green pressed is same disabled is dark gray page is solid white Finally, for anyone looking to make the caption bar opaque, (in solidarity with Windows Vista) below are the values that you'll want to change. Stock/Old/Original: MaxActive - opacity:int 80 colorizationcolor:int 0 colorizationopacity:int 100 textcolor:color solid black glowcolor:color solid white Active - opacity:int 80 colorizationcolor:int 0 colorizationopacity:int 100 glowcolor:color solid white New/Fresh/Vista MaxActive - opacity:int 0 colorizationcolor:int -16777216 colorizationopacity:int 100 textcolor:color solid white glowcolor:color solid white active - opacity:int 80 colorizationcolor:int 0 colorizationopacity:int 100 glowcolor:color solid white If anyone's curious, I plucked those out of fediafedia's theme, if I remember correctly.
  21. Mine does that, too. It's to install updates.
  22. Hi Tripredacus It is a long story.... This customer is a writer and has written several books here in Sweden.. In the nineties he started creating word documents with words to become a dictionary....he has been doing it since then and has God knows how many documents written in word that he wants to convert to a dictionary... I know that you can actually create your own dictionary in Word....-but he didn't go about it that way... So now he has all these word documents he wants to convert....and then create a pdf of everyting..... booki32
  23. Could be. I have not touched the disk for a while and it worked last time I tried it. Also, for some reason I made a clone backup of the installation on another hard drive. It doesn't work either. Rust!!! :-)
