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.

I don't buy Windows in any form anymore. It will drive them to bankruptcy. And I'm still waiting for nVidia to drive off the cliff since I don't buy anything from them since 2013.

Oh, sorry, indeed, how could I?!

No problem. Then that's the way it is. Actually, people should get their information here anyway. Sometimes, it's not so easy to express exactly what you want to say in a foreign language. In most cases, I think I manage that, but unfortunately not always.

@Felipefpl Use the filter list "AdGuard Base" from the group "Ads"! This will prevent the detection of uBlock Origin Legacy on the website www.ovagames.com. I have just tested it successfully.

No, it's misspelt.

It's all about mobile phones / tablets versus traditional desktops / laptops. And Microsoft / Android / Chrome all have an AUTOMOTIVE presence nowadays.

Hi nicolaasjan, I think this can happen if you insert Link (replace URL with text) into your post. Try to post without the Link, then edit your post and add the Link afterwards.

Ok!? Is it not possible to edit posts in the Pale Moon forum afterwards? I only know this from the Malwarebytes forum. I personally hate such restrictions.

This happens to me all the time, and very often I don't know what the actual problem is. The forum post editor is a disease. And this untenable situation has existed for months now. Thanks for posting additional information about my mod! However, the cited post of mine is unfortunately misleading and should be still replaced by the corrected one. Otherwise, someone could think the updating over an existing installation (1.16.4.32 or 1.16.4.33) of uBlock Origin Legacy would also work which is of course not the case. The manual updating over an existing installation of my mod will only work in terms of the internal list of all offered filter lists (assets.json) starting with version 1.16.4.34 and above. After installing this internal list from version 1.16.4.34, it will then be updated automatically in the future. Anyway! Thanks again for spreading the news!

@nicolaasjan Thank you for posting the news in the Pale Moon Forum! Can you please update your post there with the corrected news above? It had been formulated by me a little unclear. Therefore, I had to revise it again so that there are no misunderstandings about what will change. Thanks in advance! Greetings from Germany, AstroSkipper

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. With the upcoming release of uBlock Origin Legacy 1.16.4.34, it will then also be possible to install over an existing installation of my mod (1.16.4.34 and higher). The internal list of all preselected filter lists (assets.json) will then finally be automatically updated, too. I am still in the testing phase, but everything looks good and seems to work so far. Cheers, AstroSkipper

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.

You mean it's in the hands of Shakey's Pizza? Shakey's Pizza bought Microsoft?

On behalf of xper, an explanation for MSFN being offline for the last few days. An ingress of water at the location of the server caused damage, fortunately not to the server itself, but to the room's UPS system batteries, which necessitated the removal of power and a physical move of the server to another location. This obviously took some time to do. Hopefully there will now be no further issues relating to this.

Hi, I try to install XP SP3 on the Shuttle Hot 433 board with 486 cpu. But very early in Setup comes a message, that the 486 cpu does not support the hex opcode cmpxchg8b and so XP cant be installed. I also try an XP SP3 from another compi in IDE mode, crash at once. Now I look at the hex wíth Ida pro for this cmpxchg8b on an ready XP SP3 install. On a first try I find it in ntoskrnl.exe (one cpu) and in ntdll.dll. There may be other PE files in XP also with this opcode. The use is always the same. This opcode does a atomic search in a register. So, when a working solution is found, the replacement in other files is easy! I try to replace it with a series of opcodes, that the 486 cpu understands. This is not easy. I found this (Edit: This is wrong). push ebx ; save nonvolatile registers push ebp xor ebx, ebx ; zero out new pointer mov ebp, ecx ; save listhead address mov edx, [ebp] + 4 ; get current sequence number mov eax, [ebp] + 0 ; get current next link Efls10: or eax, eax ; check if list is empty jz short Efls20 ; if z set, list is empty mov ecx, edx ; copy sequence number mov cx, bx ; clear depth leaving sequence number jnz short Efls10 ; if z clear, exchange failed Efls20: pop ebp ; restore nonvolatile registers pop ebx ret This I try as a replacement for this function ExInterlockedFlushSList in ntoskrnl.exe in XP SP3. The funny thing in this is, that simple the opcode cmpxchg8b qword ptr [ebp+0] is deleted. May be it works on NT4 but for me it crashes XP. EDIT: May be, that this version for i368 cpu of ExInterlockedFlushSList works really only on a compi with 1 cpu and 1 core. Like in 1992 486 cpu. Then, my test on modern compi will fail. Also can be, that now I use a mix of cmpxchg8b, nothing from this, cmpxchg on one compi, because I simulated only one appearence of this function in ntoskrnl.exe. Funny, this is from Cutler, 13.

The only thing in my eyes that can happen, is a missing syncronic between the 2 cmpxchg. This does not happen on cmpxchg8b, because all memory is blocked during this operation.

A much more fundamental problem is the seemingly lost ability to carry out in-depth research in a forum before asking questions whose answer is actually easy to find. Presumably because it's more convenient that way. And who wants to go through four threads with 200 pages each and then this one here with the help of the forum search?

Agreed; it's your Dropbox account and you can put what you want there. But folks will keep finding this thread, and this will repeat, unless you at least remove the dead links from post 1. Also, if you follow the quote above back to the original post, you'll find a link to build 2036, whose links are also dead. Please don't frustrate new would-be users! If it were me, I'd not only remove all those dead links, but also replace them with a link to the redux thread so folks can download the "newer, improved" version. Unfortunately I doubt there's much more that can done with 360EE. I'm just happy we have a reasonably modern (at least when beefed up with polyfills), lightweight, unGoogled Chromium for XP.

Same question here, 360chrome is the only ungoogled Chrome version I have for Xp.

From what I gather reading this page, Wikipedia collects all/most JavaScript ever downloaded from them into the storage database so that it doesn't need to be downloaded again. With more features accessed, the size of it grows. And it is stored separately for every wiki/language cos presumably they each can have different versions. My English MediaWikiModuleStore:enwiki is 3 MB. SQLite Manager hangs trying to display that row, but it can be exported to a text editor. They think it is a good thing, and only disucss how not throw errors when a quota is exceeded. No matter how big disks get, software always expands to fill them. https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T66721

This is weird. I want to reply to the post of @AstroSkipper above, but I get:

Something like this maybe? Red/Blue is existing code, Green is extra code to be added but not enough space. So Black to jump to free spot, add code, then return from. As long as there is enough space for jump command and location to jump to a free spot.

You'd need a code cave nearby where you could access it with a jmp instruction, then write your new code and return to the next instruction.

At least 3-4 members actively use MSFN as a substitute.

Now installed iCafe driver - 347.26-espresso-icafe-winxp-international.exe GPU-Z shows OpenGL version 4.5 3dmark2001se, didnt cause any freeze issue at 1st test. but needs more testing. EDIT: terrible high temps while gaming : EDIT2: ran 3dmark2001se benchmark 2nd time, no freeze at all. still need more time to be sure. But high GPU temps are concerning.

Lmao, I am not surprised. I knew there was something fishy in his modified Chrome.

@BXNGLXDXSH Welcome to MSFN!

Are you going to continue to update at least the latest Redux? I hope you won't abandon your project. I realize the userbase is small, but you were once determined.

Because:

It's a very well known issue with all nVidia drivers after 347.xx and old motherboards. https://forums.guru3d.com/threads/gtx-560-point-of-view-games-crash-with-drivers-newer-than-347-88.441449/

It's because there are two different variants of GT 710. GPU Name NVIDIA GeForce GT 710 GF119S GPU Variant GF119-300-A1 Architecture Fermi 2.0 Foundry TSMC Process Size 40 nm https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/geforce-gt-710.c2614

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...

yeah it looks like so, I reported to upstream (i.e. AF) to see if there is something missed.

@LoneCrusaderI dont know what you need it for... But looks like all the patch does is skip the checks in pSetupVerifyFile found in setupapi.dll. Fortunately XP64 has the same logic as XP for that part so same patch should also work. x86 setupapi.dll 5.1.2600.5603 @53789 8B FF 55 8B EC -> 33 C0 C2 30 00 x64 setupapi.dll 5.2.3790.4511 @94240 48 81 EC 98 00 -> 33 C0 C2 30 00

All they need to do is to adopt the Open-Shell layout.

I forgot to tell, and the post editing is rather glitchy due to the forum soft issues, so don't run blaming me for "quadro posting". In 1999, I bought the first Bond Collection on DVD. Oh boy, I was so disappointed with the 480p US quality! Those were made in NTSC and the usual low res. American standard. Later on, I had to buy the same collection edition again! I had purchased the same version, but for the Great Britain and EU market, it was night and day difference! (somewhere in 2000)

We don't have DVDs for decades, apparently technology comes to the US much later. DVDs were popular here in 1998-2003. In 2004 people already wanted better quality, and the American "import" DVDs were locked to NTSC region, also of much lesser quality: only 480p in US vs 576p PAL (UK and European). It's a drastic difference! Starting 2006 and onwards, bluray.

Hm, should've put an /s. It wasn't meant to be a serious remark. Although everything eventually comes to an end. But parts of Windows are seriously questionable and one wonders what goes through their minds. Not just Windows. My bank figured they should replace a working mobile app with a new one. I had to set the profile image (on the website) to be able to get past login code entry screen. Yes, you have a profile picture in there, that's new. And before anyone thinks of social networks, we have those pictures in Windows XP as well. The thing was crashing with out of memory exception, because it is using one of the memory hungrier methods to load picture in Android...I think...at least that's what I deciphered from logcat and a bit searching on the internet, I forgot the details and didn't save the log. The default picture was 900x900 in size. My screen is smaller than that and the way it was displayed in the app, it is much smaller. Dedicated image viewers have no problem loading and displaying much larger pictures on the same device. As mentioned, solved that by uploading a smaller 500x500 picture on the website, then realized the app is as terrible UI wise as reviews on Google Play suggest it to be. Very poor use of screen real estate. And the old app is blocked now.

@Amigafever Thanks for your interest in my mod uBlock Origin Legacy! Unfortunately, these new assets.json files of the webextension uBlock Origin are no longer compatible with the legacy extension. To implement such features in uBlock Origin Legacy is very time-consuming due to deeper code changes. Don't forget I am not the developer of uBO which is gorhill together with his team! I am just a one-man band when it comes to fixing code or creating new things. All changes I did in terms of uBlock Origin Legacy are the result of own investigations of uBO's source code. Apart from that I don’t really like this new feature. One always has to weigh the effort and the benefit of such things. I have a lot of projects, and my time is unfortunately limited. Greetings, AstroSkipper

FYI, I uploaded again my custom button Restart & Purge but this time as an HTML file. The former download links unfortunately contained a backup file of this button which either couldn't be installed without additional editing or some characters were not transferred correctly. The problem has to do with the conversion of custom buttons into XML format, where the tool I had used did not work correctly. But now, it should be working. The new download link can be found in my original article. Please, re-download the HTML installation file if you have already downloaded one of the XML files and still interested in this custom button! Greetings, AstroSkipper PS: It is a little strange that nobody had reported this before, even though a few downloads had already been made.

... Yes, thanks, this solution was already pointed to inside Sm's GitHub issue tracker some 6 weeks ago : https://github.com/win32ss/supermium/issues/134#issuecomment-1883249689

Exactly! "20220812" is the buildID of the 32-bit, xpmod (i.e. capable of SSE2+), build; buildID is listed inside "about:" and "about:support" ; the corresponding "released" package should be the one with a close "git-date", most probably: palemoon-27.10.0.win32-git-20220813-042db568fd-xpmod.7z

@Jody Thornton : No worries, we're good ... You're right, nobody "twists my arm" to make long-winded posts here, but in your case I did provide replies to your queries because I thought you deserved the replies - also, this is material that, no doubt, will be of interest to other members here (and see, roytam1 pinned it to the start of this thread) ... A correction on a technicality there: "official" Pale Moon 27 had native support for Vista (the 64-bit variant had some glitches with media playback - only recalling from memory, because my Vista OS is 32-bit), so NM27 by roytam1 only had to re-instate WinXP support ... ... Tell me about it ... Old(er) age is a b*tch ... ... Neither do I, but I'm the type of person that first reads the toaster's manual (if it comes with one ), and only then do I plug it to the mains; do you get my drift? ... well, sorry to say it, but you didn't look well : Linked Answer: https://msfn.org/board/topic/182647-my-browser-builds-part-3/?do=findComment&comment=1199724 If I'm being asked (once) again , the decision back then was made based on uncertainty on how several, then popular, Firefox extensions would behave under an application with version 29.0+; it was a time when "upstream" (spearheaded by M.A.T.) wanted to completely remove ALL support for Firefox-specific extensions and move solely to PM targeting ones (in fact, they did do that for a while, didn't they?) ... The transition from v28.x to v29.x was crucial for Mozilla Firefox, because Fx-29.0 came with radical internal and external changes, collectively known as Australis (which, contrary to public belief, wasn't just a change in GUI); many Firefox extensions of that era, to keep backwards compatibility, had different sets of internal code to cater to Fx <=28 and Fx >=29 at the same time, so using such an extension on NM29 (with a Fx-28 type of GUI/engine) was just asking for trouble...

Yes, thats wonderfull, was wondering whats the difference between your kernel and this one: https://github.com/vxiiduu/VxKex it seams this one does not require any core system files to be patched but is not developed anymore... I also found this: https://github.com/Blaukovitch/API-MS-WIN_XP which is a ported windows 11 apis back to windows 7 and XP which might be usefull to make programs that for some strange reason require (the strangest is when an updated does that) newer apis that windows 7 lacks

Japanese version would be the only straightforward way. I'm not sure if there's any way to get US Win95 to display foreign characters. I didn't figure a way to teach it to display our čšž in programs. It doesn't do Unicode, straight Win9x programs use ANSI versions of API functions that take string parameters, the code page in the background ensures string is handled properly. These old Windows versions don't have translations in separate resource files, strings are in executable binaries, you even need updates that match the language if you want to update the OS properly without turning parts of it into other language. This article also suggests the only way to run Japanese programs is to have a separate Japanese installation one way or another. There's some limited official support for USB in a form of a supplement package for newer OSR versions and an unofficial compilation of related updates here. How will it play with Japanese version, though...

Update, if you've read this far along. shelby is now able to connect. The issue was the unusual comment character used in "WATTCP.CFG". In Windows' INI files ";" is used as a comment/ignore character. Wattcp uses the Unix comment character "#". A comment character was blocking a configuration option from being read. But, the guidance about firewalls, involving VirtualBox generated I.P.s, is probably incorrect information. I have not used VirtualBox for much networking, and didn't understand its networking design. In the NAT configuration, all assigned I.P.s are handled internally. Outside of VirtualBox, any firewall just needs to allow VirtualBox network/internet access. I probably should have assumed this is how VirtualBox worked, as the setting is called NAT. I was distracted, by my comparative testing using a real machine. !No excuse! :)
