  1. Past hour
  2. Mine does that, too. It's to install updates.
  3. Today
  4. 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
  5. 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!!! :-)
  6. Too bad this poll isn't multiple choices, because I really like more than 1 Windows OS.
  7. It was a joke. Clearly, the title is misspelled, not to mention the overall misleading, clickbait style name of the topic and improper, poor English grammar. No articles to support that "theory", nothing.
  8. I'm glad the 6.14.13.6881 worked better - I reiterate - the only thing changed in all inf-files was the version - to make driver compatible with fireferret foolish blocklist.xml so we can have browser graphics acceleration. If your GT710 isn't stable, it might be overheating peradventure? I mean it's not necessarily software fault. It's a nvKepler card, so it should work as any other, I had GTX 680, 770 and 780Ti with this driver and all worked well, no instabilities. Any yeah GT730 is better than 710, theoretically 2x, it has 2x the amount of shaders (384) in 2 texture processing clusters.
  9. Did you try this website? A huge drivers collection. https://driverscollection.com/
  10. I had XP running on a GT 1030 but only in super-VGA mode. I have a GT 730 but it has disappeared under mounds of equipment...can't find it. Now, when I try to start XP on the same Asus B360, I get a black screen for a long time and sometimes it BSODs after 5 or 10 minutes. I was too slow to get the error code but it is display related. I am trying to repeat the BSOD but all I have is a black screen. Oddly, I get the XP welcome screen but it does not reach logon. Any ideas? Also, I can no longer get W7 running on the B360 machine because I re-installed the USB driver for my new B760 and erased the A36D identifier for the older machine. I am looking for a way to re-install the old hardware ID but I can't even find INFfile for it.
  11. Then use the v344.75 driver, I don't think OpenGL version 4.5 is required anywhere. And I'm sure you don't use OpenCL and CUDA, so the fact that they're not there won't be a problem. PhysX should probably just be reinstalled, here are links to it, you need to install two versions, 9.13 Legacy is required for games released before 2010 https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/physx/physx-9-13-0604-legacy-driver/ and version 9.19 is required for games after 2010 https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/physx/9_19_0218/physx-9-19-0218-driver/ It also happens that the new GPU-Z does not show PhysX correctly, so I check with the old version, 0.8.5 https://www.upload.ee/files/16448328/GPU-Z_v0.8.5.exe.html
  12. The list in that dialog box is empty for me. I have seen something there in the past, but not now. When I looked through the entries using SQLite Manager, I saw my username in a few of them. In Opera 12, I don't see anything from Wikipedia in persistent storage. Other wikis have 500-700 kB. Perhaps it considers the browser too old to use. Its global quota looks to be 10 MB for all sites together.
  13. Is this where the "Offline Web Content and User Data" shown when you go to Tools / Preferences / Advanced is stored? I think logins and passwords are stored in a different table, but I'm not sure.
  14. yeah it looks like so, I reported to upstream (i.e. AF) to see if there is something missed.
  15. Yessaaa, I understand to 100%, what this function is doing. During crazy thinking today about the few lines in Assembler of the function ExInterlockedFlushSList, I start to wonder, why this is there: jnz short loc_40B0BE (a loop) In my eyes, no loop is needed, when I understand the opcode correct. Now I understand, what happens: cmpxchg8b is not really atomic, even not on a single cpu. So, it can happen, that the content in memory does NOT match witch the content in EDX EAX, because another process killes during this operation the 64 bit content in memory or just disturbs operation. Crazy. Oh my, what kind of errors may be there in other OS too. Cutler solves this problem with his loop. When the content in memory is disturbed, or the operation cmpxchg8b is broken, there was a next try and a next try and a next try.. I testet this with disabling the loop with 90 90. Oh my, Bsod. So it happens nearly always, that this operation is disturbed. And I can overcome this to be disturbed, when I change the opcode from cmpxch8b ==> lock cmpxch8b in the original ntoskrnl.exe from XP SP3. Now, without the loop, XP boots. This means, only with the lock nobody is allowed to disturb the operation of cmpxch8b, and so for any simulator, real atomic is needed. Waaaoh, this is the first time, that a modd in this function works for me Dietmar
  16. I have been using GT 730 with v344.75 for a while with same PC and it is doing very stable unlike GT 710. Games I tested and 3dmark2001se are not so power hungry softwares i guess. GT 730 with latest drivers such as v368.81 also caused freeze issue but has been very stable with v344.75. I dont know what else test I can do with PC and GPU health. I can say (except OpenGL showing 4.4 instead of 4.5 and not showing some other features on GPU-Z comparing native supported drivers) seems modified v344.75 is stable with GT 710. But need to run it for some days for more experience.
  17. Hi, On my gaming PC when I try to start a VM on VMWare Pro 16 I get a BSOD. I get: EXCEPTION_ON_ INVALID STACK BSOD. I've enabled everything needed for virtualization in BIOS. This is my build list (I got a different GPU, but it’s still an RTX 4070) https://newegg.io/8f3ca36. I have an ASrock Z690 PG Riptide motherboard (here's the manual: https://download.asrock.com/Manual/Z690 PG Riptide.pdf). How do I fix this?
  18. for resolution i used VBEMP driver
  19. Thanks, I don't know SQL wizardry. Last time I touched it was almost ten years ago. Looks like the biggest consumers are various Wiki sites: Wikipedia, Wiktionary, Fandom, Wikinews. Each language domain has an entry between 1 and 3 megs. Wikipedia has become noticeably slower over the years with the same basic Monobook style and visual editing turned off. On talk pages they discuss how pages for some popular subjects need to be shortened, and on an old PC it is clear why.
  20. Maybe you have a problem with the PC hardware. I have GTX 750 Ti with the latest iCafe drivers and it works. I wonder if it would be stable under NT 6 on the same harware. Some games do not work under XP because they run out of 32-bit memory. Then the system spectacularly crashes. Direct3D9 seems to take double the memory, in video RAM and in system RAM (in the Paged Pool address space, which can be listed by PoolMon). If I alt-tab out of a game, it copies some of the video memory into system memory. Video memory use fall to near zero. OpenGL doesn't do this. Maybe it helps when alt-tabbing back in. On XP SP1, the paged pool was around 100 MB. On XP SP3 and the latest Server it is about 300 MB, and the problem may not be experienced. But possibly can because these new cards have a lot of memory on board. I can compare memory use using Euro Truck Simulator 1.35, which is a very demanding game, and supports both Direct3D and OpenGL. It will crash in Direct3D after driving through new maps for 15-20 minutes. A crash also occurs with GTA SAMP using the default cache memory setting, which is optimized for modern PCs. The Sims 2 FreeTime actually causes a BSOD when launched repeatedly. I couldn't understand the reason. It does not use much memory. Perhaps the driver has overlooked something when reloading a cache, and they've stopped testing it in depth for an obsolete Windows version. With this game there was some blame passed between developers of Maxis and nVidia, but supposedly it was resolved, but not for me.
  21. SELECT originkey, SUM(LENGTH(value)) AS total_size FROM webappsstore2 GROUP BY originkey ORDER BY total_size DESC;
  22. I think, that a make a mistake in my description of the work of CMPXCHG8B. It works really on ALL bits of the 64 bit in memory. The lower 32 bit are stored in EAX, the higher 32 bit in EDX. Now comes the check: ONLY, when all of the 64 bit in memory match with the EDX EAX combination, the combination of ECX EBX is written back into those 64 bit in memory. In ECX are the higher 32bit for the exchange and in EBX the lower 32bit for exchange. ONLY when this exchange has happened, the Zero flag ZF is set Dietmar PS: This is the base for the Simulator.
  23. It is obviously a result of one or a few sites storing oversized "cookies", possibly to sneak some advertising in. SQLite Manager lists 19801 entries inside the table webappstore2. After an exercise of reading backwards, on the first page I recognize entries for hdtracks (possibly a culprit), softonic, pristineorganics, reddit, msfn, wikipedia, google, deezer (suspect), imgur (suspect), rateyourmusic, gtaforums, facebook. Looks like it may hold useful settings and logins that I need to keep, or I would need to log in to every place again, and likely don't remember the passwords. Any way to sort this table "by size" to narrow down the bloat?
  24. @user57 Give me the assembler code of the emulator and I test. After 1 day of work on this few lines, I think, now I understand how this function works. But to emulate it, is another hard job Dietmar
