I've hinted about it on here within the last week, and I can be proud to say the AMD Radeon Graphics driver for Windows Vista is finally available. There are also several other drivers that work with Vista that are usually bundled with hardware that features support for Windows 7 as well as the AMD Vista chipset drivers which still work with AMD Radeon's. To make this significantly easier for everyone, I included everything in a simple driver pack. Make sure Extended Kernel latest release is installed before installing graphics driver! You can get everything here: https://www.mediafire.com/file/lxzpv2afvxzzy6h/AMD_Assorted_Drivers_Pack.zip/file Most of these will also work with Windows XP x64 edition as well. The included ACPI.SY_ needs to be extracted with 7zip and integrated into an XP 64-bit media. The drivers that I could not get working under XP, despite their Vista success was: AMD IOMMU, PSP 2.0, and Realtek Card reader. The others like SMBus and USB 3.0 worked just fine. The graphics driver obviously does not work with XP, and trying to port it to XP's XDM (pre-WDDM) driver module may be hard to do. I hope these drivers are of use to people. Also, if your specific Radeon/chipset device is not in any of the INFs, a simple INF mod to add in references to it will suffice, after which you can install away. Also note, these are considered Beta drivers, but no problems, knock on wood, have been reported. Please also note I did not mod the Radeon Graphics driver. Credit goes to K4Sum1 for that. EDIT: There is a tutorial that shows you how to get AMD 17.10.1 working with Windows Vista. You can find it here: http://windowsenthusiasts1.epizy.com/AMD17101WindowsVista.html Inside there is also a link if you need support.

What kind of theme is this? please lemme know

We mostly talked about QupZilla version 1.1.5 in the past. I have now tested newer versions again. Yes, it does not meet fast development and is basically obsolete. It can be interesting for the KernelEx 4.5.2 user to have an alternative for Firefox 9.0.1 or 10.x with RT's Network Security Services nss update. Qupzilla 1.3.5 runs with Javascript disabled. In my opinion, today 1.8.9 (last XP version, but 2.0.2 runs on my XPSP3, too) isn't much better in terms of website display either. Its OpenSSL 1.0.0.4 (LIBEAY32.DLL, SSLEAY32.DLL) is nearly unusable, but I can simply update that version by replacing these files. Newer versions support important cryptographic protocol TLS 1.2, too. I tested that on two machines. On the first with KernelEx core updates 25 (Kext disabled), I use OpenSSL 1.0.2.21 (1.0.2u), on the second with KernelEx 4.5.2, I can use version 1.0.2.12 (1.0.2L) or alternatively - I think it was - 1.0.1.12, in any case, however, 1.0.1.9. LIBEAY32.DLL, SSLEAY32.DLL: e.g. https://www.dll-files.com , https://www.npcglib.org/~stathis/blog/precompiled-openssl/ , https://indy.fulgan.com/SSL/Archive/ History and Bookmarks work. The tests are with the portable version (portableapps.com launcher). Disable Javascript in the settings.ini. [Web-Browser-Settings] allowJavaScript=false Path Portable: ...\QupZillaPortable\Data\PROFILE Unfortunately, I did not find some old versions like 1.1.8 or 1.2 anymore, even on archive.org for the possibility to try an older dll of Qupzilla to enable JS. Presumably Javascript of those old browsers brings quite little. https://github.com/QupZilla/qupzilla/blob/master/CHANGELOG https://qupzilla-portable.en.uptodown.com/windows/versions https://qupzilla.en.uptodown.com/windows/versions KernelEx mode: Win2000SP4 https://sourceforge.net/projects/portableapps/files/QupZilla Portable/ The portable 1.3.5 already have Launcher 2.2.0, that doesn't work on ME/98. The Launcher can be replaced by the next older Launcher 2.1.2. Because I couldn't find any older versions, I built it myself with the PortableAppsLauncherGenerator 2.1.2 and NSISPortable 2.46.1. https://web.archive.org/web/20111121065924/http://portableapps.com/manuals/PortableApps.comLauncher/intro/quickstart.html https://sourceforge.net/projects/portableapps/files/NSIS Portable/Additional Versions/ https://sourceforge.net/projects/portableapps/files/PortableApps.com Launcher/PortableApps.comLauncher_2.1.2.paf.exe/download The successor of Qupzilla is Falkon browser. I assembled a first API list: Falkon.ini I started experimenting with DX10/11 , mesa, wine files, like dwrite.dll, libwine.dll, wined3d.dll. Apparently there are mandatory dependencies for Falkon here. For testing I have to enable among others [D3D9.DLL]Direct3DCreate9Ex, [msvcrt.dll]memmove_s=>ucrtbase.dll:, [KERNEL32.DLL]InitOnceBeginInitialize=o4e, CompareStringEx=z9e. I can't leave them on permanently because various errors result in other programs. I enable them for testing only. Is there a Falkon browser setting to prevent these calls similar to Firefox "layers.acceleration.enabled;false", "webgl.angle.try-d3d11;false"? Dooble Browser https://web.archive.org/web/20140214122603/http://dooble.sourceforge.net/ https://dooble.en.uptodown.com/windows/versions https://www.pcworld.pl/ftp/wersje/pc_122625/dooble-web-browser.html Dooble.exe files can be unpacked with 7Zip, too. 1.30 runs on ME/98. Extremely unstable with JS enabled. Javascript can be disabled in the Dooble.ini ([settingsWindow] javascriptEnabled=false). The profile name is ".dooble" and is in the program folder (...\DoobleBrowser\.dooble\Dooble\Dooble.ini). 1.43 (2013): Start it once. After the crash disable JS (see above). And try to start Dooble again. If this doesn't work, run it on XP and disable Javascript. Afterwards use the new profile on ME. On XP the profile name is OS user name (...\DoobleBrowser\-username-\.dooble). 1.43 crashes immediately with JS enabled. Updated: libeay32.dll 1.0.2.21, ssleay32.dll 1.0.2.21, libssl32.dll 1.0.2.7 I can't find some Dooble versions anymore, also not on archive.org. KernelEx mode: Win2000SP4 QTWeb Internet Browser Development has been discontinued. But the Website is still online. Latest version 3.8.5 (2013). It already supports TLS 1.2. http://www.qtweb.net/ 3.8.5 runs on ME/98. Javascript must be disabled. Before you allow internet access you must disable JS, otherwise QT Web will crash. Or set JS in the registry to disabled: (HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\QtWeb.NET\QtWeb Internet Browser\websettings) String enableJavascript to false. Portable version: Profile folder > ...\QTWebBrowser\QtWebSettings\QtWeb.NET > QtWeb Internet Browser.ini [websettings] enableJavascript=false KernelEx mode: Win2000SP4 Slimboat - latest version 1.1.54 (2015) It crashes on start. After a web search I have versions 1.1.17 and higher. I also found an older version 1.1.8 (2012) on my HDD. QtWebKit4.dll 4.9.3 can be replaced by an older version (e.g. of SB 1.1.8) to start without error. Don't take QtWebKit4.dll of 1.1.17 or newer. Configuration version 1.1.52 (2014), with older QtWebKit4.dll (4.7.4), libeay32.dll 1.0.2.11, ssleay32.dll 1.0.2.11. Problem - versions 1.1.53 and 1.1.54: Disabled SSL 3.0 protocol disables TLS 1.2, too! This is probably unwanted and a bug. Changelog 1.1.53: "Added option to disable SSL 3.0 protocol to avoid POODLE attack. SSL 3.0 protocol is disabled by default. If you wish to connect to legacy websites supporting only SSL 3.0, you can turn it on in Tools:options:security." Configuration: QtWebKit4.dll (4.7.4), libeay32.dll 1.0.2.21, ssleay32.dll 1.0.2.21 Javascript doesn't matter. Portable: The setup exe can be unpacked with 7Zip (no installation). Delete $PLUGINSDIR and $TEMP. Then create a file settings.ini in the SB program folder with entry [General] AppDataInProgDir=1 The profile folder appdata appears on SB start. https://www.afterdawn.com/software/network/browsers/slimboat.cfm/v1_1_17#all_versions The versions below (1.1.17 - 1.1.54) have the wrong name..

KernelEx 4.5.2 users can try version 1.1.32. Not usable: Midori Browser doesn't quite fit in here. Version 0.46 (2012) works, but is nearly unusable. Apparently no https, no TLS 1.2 support. 0.47 comes with a new libjavascriptcoregtk-3.0-0.dll and Midori causes an error in that dll on start. Disabling JS doesn't help in this case. KernelEx mode: Win2000SP4 Anyhow Midori versions are available on archive.org. https://web.archive.org/web/20130707011718/http://www.twotoasts.de/ https://web.archive.org/web/20131201000000*/http://www.twotoasts.de/ Xombrero keyboard controlled browser (discontinued) - latest version 1.6.3 (2013) on sourceforge https://sourceforge.net/projects/xxxterm/files/ missing APIs (Hresult) [USP10.dll] ScriptItemizeOpenType= ScriptPlaceOpenType= ScriptShapeOpenType= It starts with error in libjavascriptcoregtk-3.0-0.dll like Midori! On XP Xombrero runs by replacing USP10.dll by the file of vista. But in my opinion it isn't really usable anymore.

It won't stay. Fix your post and read the forum rules. I fixed your title, now you'll have to fix your post.

did your CAPS LOCK key get stuck? jaclaz

Hello there Jakob99, you are correct it is a AMD Radeon R9 200 Video Card running with an X99 Intel in that screenshot. && That's an interesting thought, I did some rather minor research on my end and my only theory is you could perhaps compare or maybe even somehow make use of older Windows XP x64 drivers pertaining to the AM1 or FM2/FM2+ APU chips. They might be similar enough in some aspects... (This might also apply to the R7/R9 AMD GPUs). Though this is just an idea I am throwing out... As far as the APUs, I've only ever owned an AM1 out of the two. The AM1 comes with R3 graphics. If I somehow had this particular computer you speak of, or one having that AMD Radeon R4 Stoney Ridge chip, I would help test that for you. Good luck! && Another thing, that Extended Kernel of yours is quite nice, keep up the great work. I never thought I'd see the day when there was such a thing for this lovely OS.

Installed this on my RX 480 and it works well. Thank you for this.

Get well soon, @roytam1! I'm sure this house arrest type thing is no fun even if you don't have strong symptoms and can continue working...

@XPerceniol, @AstroSkipper (Probably) don't need to worry too much. October 25: http://forum.ru-board.com/topic.cgi?forum=2&topic=5894&start=1060#21 That's his dedicated Mypal testing thread over there, zzz528 == @feodor2. October 14: https://github.com/Feodor2/Mypal68/issues/3#issuecomment-1279302448 On Github, if there's no other activity by him, look around in the issues (sort by Recently updated).

I'm sorry if I forgot and tried to look at my notifications and I have a million. Love you guys.

I missed you all very much. Sorry, struggling with words, but been very rough going as of late. Getting back up on my feet a little but with many setbacks (both physically and mentally).

Thank you; Mina, I'm sorry I caused you worry. You a nice person.

Thank you and words could never express my gratitude to have your support.

Oh yes, I do take low dose aspirin per directed by my cardiology.

Wishing you well @roytam1 and for speedy recovery and glad to here you can isolate at home. Nothing like being around your own surroundings.

Hi my friend ... I'm sorry I've been going and caused worry. I loved this very much.

Based on the screenshot, you have an AMD Radeon R9 200 series in conjunction with Intel, am I right, or is it something else? I was wondering if the AMD Radeon R4 Stoney Ridge could be made to work with Windows XP x64 bit edition. This is present in such computers like Acer Aspire A315-21. K4Sum1 got its graphics driver to work with Windows Vista (still in Beta) so I was hoping it could also be made to work with XP 64 bit edition. Here's the photo for proof as well as the specs for anybody interested in looking into this: http://windowsenthusiasts1.epizy.com/images/AMD2.JPG I do have the one-core api Extended Kernel set up on my 64-bit XP install on the A315-21. If you are unfamiliar with this, you can familiarize yourself here: https://github.com/Skulltrail192/One-Core-API-Binaries I also have the drivers for Elan Touchpad and Realtek Audio/Ethernet working oob. It also required Fernando's modded AMD SATA driver along with a modded ACPI.sys file integrated. Thanks in advanced to any interested parties.

It does not fully work; the optional kernel mode component is missing function ObGetObjectType. I hope to add it soon. The other important function in the newer releases is technically kernel mode as well: NtQuerySystemInformationEx. I have some compliant functions like KeQueryLogicalProcessorRelationship but I may need to add additional classes or refine existing ones for that to work as it should.
