Ivy Bridge and Valleyview are different graphics circuits. The J1900 processor has a Valleyview graphics circuit, no Ivy Bridge graphics circuit. The Valleyview graphics circuit has partial support for VGA and full support for Gen7LC. It has a unique clock generator. A driver for Ivy Bridge cannot configure this sub circuit so you can't simply modify the inf file of a Ivy Bridge driver to force the driver using a Vallyview graphics circuit anyway. The Ivy Bridge graphics circuit does not support Gen7LC, so it needs a different driver which supports a different graphics standard. Some rare graphics drivers, like the universal graphics driver for Windows 2000 support multiple graphics standards. Most support only 1 standard. Some graphics circuits support a somewhat similar graphics standard than another graphics circuit uses. For example there are similarities between Gen7LC and Gen7 but they are not fully compatible. However, the Atom E3815 and the Celeron J1900 use the same graphics circuit so they can use the same graphics driver.

My electricity was off for about 18 hours due to high winds. However, I just got my VOIP phone & fiber optic back after 6 days. Because I do not use online accounts, I was still able to get my Church Council & Finance Secretary duties done. I stopped at the Church, got the written documents I needed, and scanned them into my computer. The Church internet was also down that morning, but that's OK, as I do not logon to their system when I use my laptop to take notes. For everyone who thinks that online accounts are the next leap forward, has it occurred to any of them that internet access is not a given, and that there is still work that has to be done?

Hello Windows 2000 fans, when using vanilla Windows 2000 with a rather new version of win32k.sys, there is a bug in the function "fsg_RunPreProgram" which reduces that drawing quality of some fonts. This bug was fixed with the version 5.00.2195.7610 by Microsoft. However, it was reintroduced into the operating system shortly afterwards, so it still exists in the newest version of win32k.sys (5.00.2195.7640). To fix this bug there are 2 ways: Use Extended Kernel 3.1H or newer. Blackwingcat fixed this bug. If you don't like or can't install Extended Kernel, there is now a second option available: WINDOWS2000-OTSKB3037639-V1-X86-INTL.exe There is an article in the knowledge database available with more information on the nature of this bug. There is some more auxilliary information available, which I do not plan to distribute among end users: code.htm The patch updates the file "win32k.sys" from the version "5.00.2196.0001" to the version "5.00.2196.0002". --- If someone likes to help with an upcoming Windows 2000 update: I am looking for Windows XP updates which contain a version of win32k.sys. My list of known updates is currently pretty short: KB3013455 contains version 5.1.2600.6712 KB3034344 contains version 5.1.2600.6755 KB4039384 contains version 5.1.2600.7334 Thank you.

I didn't perform a deeper check. It seemed to render properly at the first look. Sometimes, a different browser engine helps.

Hi @Dave-H, on Windows XP you can open the site https://www.lner.co.uk/ in Otter Browser. As far as I can see, it seems to work in this QT-based browser. Tested version: Otter Browser weekly420. Link: https://sourceforge.net/projects/otter-browser/files/otter-browser-weekly420/otter-browser-win32-weekly420-xp.zip/download Latest version compatible with Windows XP: 1.0.0.3 Link: https://sourceforge.net/projects/otter-browser/files/otter-browser-1.0.03/otter-browser-win32-1.0.03-xp.zip/download Cheers, AstroSkipper

I assume you can't access your Windows XP installation in normal mode anymore. My tips: 1. Boot into safe mode. Undo all recent changes. Clear all temporary files. Reboot into normal mode. If that doesn't fix your problem, try to set back your system to "Last Known Good Configuration". 2. To load the last known good configuration in Windows XP, reboot the computer and upon startup, repeatedly press the F8 key. This action should bring up the "Windows Advanced Options Menu". Use your arrow keys to move to "Last Known Good Configuration" and press the Enter key. If that doesn't help either, try a repair of your Windows XP installation. 3. Boot your Windows XP computer with your associated boot CD and perform a repair install (option R) using the Recovery Console. Cheers, AstroSkipper PS: And, what would I do if I had such a problem? I'd restore the most recent image of my system partition. Only minutes later, no problems anymore!

@jaderunner, AFAIK, a MyPal version 18.9.3 never existed. Maybe, you meant Mypal 28.9.3.

Mypal 68 has its own TLS (1.2 and 1.3) protocol and the associated ciphers. A TLS 1.2 proxy isn't needed for Mypal 68. Please, provide information about your hardware! Furthermore, open the setting page of Mypal 68, disable hardware acceleration, clear cache, delete all cookies, and restart the browser. Do you use Mypal 68 in single-process or multiprocess mode?

Please, provide information about your hardware and the update state of your Windows XP! Have all POSReady updates until 2019 already been installed?

Try to disable ZA temporarily (completely!) and check Windows XP built-in firewall if it is active and interfering. Sometimes, it helps to set an exclusion in Windows XP built-in firewall either.

No, unless you have some applications which need the Java Runtime Environment (JRE). JavaScript and Java Runtime Environment are two totally different things. In a browser, you need a lot of scripts written in the language JavaScript. Almost all websites provide functionality via Javascript. Java Runtime Environment, for running Java executables, is needed very rarely in a browser. Therefore, JRE can't fix your problem.

And one thing is totally clear. Without the efforts and support of @roytam1, @feodor2, @NotHereToPlayGames, @Humming Owl and so on, Windows XP would have been died years ago. Therefore, thanks to you all for your great work , and keep Windows XP alive as long as possible! Kind regards, AstroSkipper +

Hope dies last! On my old Windows XP computer, I try to avoid crappy, cumbersome, Googlized websites generally as a form of protest, and due to my low hardware resources. If I have to access such sites, I usually open them in a browser on my Android tablet. The advantage is that mobile website versions are much more tolerable and easier to surf than desktop versions. I think your described trend will accelerate more and more, looking back the last years. Unfortunately, the users loving their Windows XP will have to accept that those websites can only be accessed by using alternatives. My personal rule: all Googlized crap should be processed by Google's OS Android and its browsers. Cheers, AstroSkipper
