I got outlook 2002 but config should look like that. Replace mattimeikalainen (fake email I use on examples) with yours, then for advanced settings set incoming port to 993 and check force tls/ssl and incoming port to 465 (if ssl) and you should be able connect

You need enable login to insecure applications or create app password like showed here . I recommend try first mentioned before seperate password since that may not work. Then during outlook setup select IMAP and do steps here to configure traffic. Those step should work. Try tls first if not try ssl

Yes it is v1.3. As far as Kongregate goes for me currently, in Chrome, Flash doesn't load, it just shows the Supernova thing. I haven't checked it since a few days ago so maybe it changed. When I tried to go to the game page in Pale Moon, the site doesn't load properly, even if I temp allow all scripts. Unfortunately, I am not going to be changing my security setup in order to play a game. I've had to make the decision to just not visit sites or play games that do not work with my security settings, so it is no big deal on that end. Times change and life goes on. And yes, the high scores table on the game page. Really it is the only reason to bother playing it. I am fully aware of Projector, I've made apps using it in the past, including an actual software installer for a commercial product.

Finally, now I have a computer that supports Vista. I have to give special thanks to @Win10-Hater for selling his Pentium D desktop (he plans to replace it soon with his own custom desktop that he will build within the next 2 months, according to what he said). He upgraded the HDD on it to an SSD (1TB Samsung 850 EVO) and I upgraded the Pentium D 915 to a 945, and I will use this computer for Vista and retro stuff. I have a dualboot of Windows 2000 Pro and Vista Ultimate x86 on it.

There is an increasing problem with the compatibility of older e-mail clients with modern systems due to increased security restrictions. As a diehard Eudora user, I know that all too well! The most obvious one is that many e-mail providers now mandate at least TLS v1.2 support to interact with their servers. If Outlook 2003 doesn't support TLS v1.2 that will be an immediate show-stopper with many providers. The other issue is that providers will only support older clients if an "app specific password" is used, which has to be specially generated for the program. This is used on the client login instead of the normal password that you would use to login to webmail. As an example, the option for Yahoo Mail is on the account security setting page. I know Gmail has a similar option, but I have no experience with Gmail I'm afraid. I think on Gmail you have to do something to enable the use of legacy clients too.

sigh.. I made a grumpy post indicating you should read any of the other posts on the first page of this forum. The answer isn't hiding. short version: It feels like it's no longer being supported. It hasn't been updated for the last two major windows updates. It no longer works unless you running a year old (or more) version of win 10.

Could I Have My Name Changed To VistaFan Please

The WidevineCDM (v1.4.9.1088) inside official Basilisk as well as in Serpent 52.9.0 has been broken since August 14th 2019 (!), because evil Google , the current owners, have de-authorised that deprecated version from receiving decryption licenses (i.e. keys) from sanctioned WV lic-servers... WidevineCDM has always depended (in Firefox-type browsers) on system provided patented decoders (IOW, WMF), thus it used to require at least Vista SP2 with Platform Update Supplement (PUS); when one visits a WV test page with latest Serpent 52 in Vista+, e.g. https://bitmovin.com/demos/drm , you sadly get: And the above is the good scenario ; some heavily DRM'd sites like the Spotify Web Player (https://open.spotify.com/browse) won't load at all once they discover you have a broken WV browser implementation... After the demise of v1.4.9.1088, Google have moved on to releasing WV series 4.10 (dropping the initial 1 in version numbering); Moonchild Productions were tracking WV v4.10 implementation in (practically only) Basilisk in UXP issue #962: https://repo.palemoon.org/MoonchildProductions/UXP/issues/962 But time went on... and on... and on... without a solution in sight... To add insult to injury, Google had retained Vista SP2 support in WidevineCDM up to (and including) v4.10.1196.0 (SHA-2 file sig of Oct 9th 2018), which was also revoked on 2019-08-14... Later 4.10 WV versions ALL call the KERNEL32 function TryAcquireSRWLockExclusive which doesn't exist under Vista SP2... So, all hope is currently lost for Vista SP2 users to have a future working WV implementation inside St52 (32-bit) - I'm leaving any Vista ExtKernel references out of the picture here, as we're nowhere even close to a fully functional x86 edition yet; but I feel the ExtKernel is OT for this discussion... If, and that is a very big IF, MCP somehow manage to port a working WV 4.10 implementation in Basilisk, then that would mean that Serpent 52 users on Win7+ could also profit... But, most sadly (but not unexpectedly, if you ask me), the above scenario won't ever happen: Dropping in-browser DRM from the platform @roytam1 : By the look of things, they'll be removing all EME supporting code from their tree (having removed a long time ago support for the deprecated Adobe Primetime CDM ); "we", OTOH, have kept support for Adobe Primetime inside Serpent 52 for the sake of very few users on Windows XP who prefer to use that CDM as a h264+aac decoder instead of the ffvpx patched library; @dencorso , do you still fall within that category? 1. What is the opinion of Serpent 52 users here? Is AP CDM still needed in 2021? 2. If the majority deems yes, will it be easy enough for you Roy to selectively remove ONLY Widevine supporting code (which should be purged one way or another, if it has no applicable uses anymore...) ?

The positive infinity, according to IEEE_754-1985 would be 00|00|00|00|00|00|F0|7F

It is. You can download the latest driver from Nvidia official website, then add DEV_ID to installation files. Please use driver for Windows 7 - it will show the best performance of all, but it will be still limited. If you are interested in a GPU for Windows Vista, consider buying a used card from GeForce GTX 600/700/900 Series. If you are an AMD Fanboy, it is a good idea to buy HD 6000 or HD 7000 GPU. Upd.: Windows 7's 372.70 driver works okay with me.

I'm gonna leave this guide for defusing the timebomb here. http://cache.tehsausage.com/flash/defuse.txt Instead of changing the year to 2040, it replaces the value with a NaN - "not a number". Adobe's code will check if the current time in milliseconds is above NaN, which always returns false, so it basically means infinity. I did it before january 13th, everything Flash-related works fine. Now I wonder if it's possible to set the system date to before January 13th, install the latest flash, then follow the guide and return the system date to how it was. Also apparently the same exact hack works for Linux version as well. defuse.txt

I dislike the new position, so I've set uBlock Origin to block the flags entirely

https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=16GB+DDR3+sodimm

The 8770W unofficially supports 32GB 1866MHz, it detects what the RAM is rated for, so you can overclock it by flashing a higher rating to it. 2133MHz is when it gets unstable. I'd like to know if it can work with 64GB of DDR3 with 4x16GB DIMMs

Burd has a mobile 1060, which is able to work (somewhat) on Vista I've even gotten 970M drivers to install on XP, but I was unable to test, because Optimus. Also, I've discovered the M5000M seller never took the money, never shipped the item, and never said anything about it.

Windows embedded industry pro 8.1 will give us 5 months.

Yeah, because I remember setting up a 8.1 PC for a family member with a Phenom II X4 955, and it worked great. That PC runs 10 now, and works fine, albeit slower because of 10.

Yes , you're right . I just thought it was necesary to tag a supervisor so he could intervene and keep this topic clean , also add a function where one could be able to block members . Besides , I've already asked a user (not pointing fingers at anyone) to stop disturbing win32 and me with longish texts containing the same questions over again . Please tell , is there a "block user" function over here ? I can see only "ignore" , but that isn't helping.

I wanna back with @dencorso . I can go a long way describing the ugliest things that 21st century has brought. But I guess that makes no sense, since you most likely don't remember the 20th. I totally agree with him about "oversensitive generation" , I have a girlfriend , almost 20 years yonger than me , and she is so oversensitive , oh boy . Literally about everything that previous generations wouldn't even notice . But you're right , we should keep this topic clean , so I'll refrain from it . I'm just saying that your "solution" is not working in my case (but @dencorso is right again , you shouldn't delete , it could be somewhat useful to others), and the instructions that were given by our guru @win32 (local , no updates after April 2017 , etc ) are 100% bullet proof. By the way , how things are going under this "virus" "lockdown" in your favourite 21st century ? (rhetorical question) "lockdown" is a prison term , but that seems to be ok with most of young people/millenials ?! (rhetorical too) Rhetorical means you don't have to write an answer , so I'm not waiting for one . I really hope you'll keep in balance after reading this, please don't get nervous.

If you like efficiency, NT 6.2 is actually the best of modern Windows

Hi , I'd like to add . All versions starting from Opera 69 do NOT remember extensions' settings . They revert all settings to default if the browser is re-launched. Chromium is even worse . It simply turns them off (tested on chrome 86). I mean the extensions without locale settings , which I managed to install.

My 8770w runs pretty cool, was testing it out with some BF4 yesterday, and temps were in the 60-70 range, compared to my MSI laptop which had temps in the 80-95 range in BF4. And that's without repasting my 8770w and doing proper dust removal (Got me some NT-H2) Once I upgrade the GPU, temps will be higher, but from what I've heard, they should be in the low-mid 80s at most.

I've used 7+ for like 9-10 years, so I'm kinda used to these features, except the abomination known as Aero shake. I also like shadows under icons, as it helps with reading icon text on a lighter background

I think Vista could benefit from some improvements in the 7 explorer, like taskbar pinning and the file menu or navigation menu, or whatever it is on the left of the file explorer on 7+

I have gotten the Vista audio driver working on 7+, but it requires driver signature enforcement to be disabled, so I haven't been using it, even though it sounds so much better, even on an ALC1220 Also, the taskbar issues can be easily fixed

Might be possible to get it working by changing your useragent

It's actually newer, but I replaced it for various reasons My old laptop (MSI GS60 2QE) before I took some parts for the "new" one: Core i7 4720HQ 16GB RAM (2x8GB only two slots) GTX 970M 240GB SATA M.2 SSD that I can't remember the brand of 500GB Samsung 850 Evo SATA M.2 1TB WD laptop HDD My "new" main laptop (HP 8770W): Core i7 3630QM (Can upgrade this all the way to a 3940XM, and get better performance than the 4720HQ) 24GB RAM (2x8GB and 2x4GB) Firepro M4000 (MXM, so I can upgrade this. Have a Quadro M5000M coming in the mail for the laptop) 500GB Samsung 860 Evo 2TB WD Blue SSD coming in the mail I got the 8770W, because my GS60 2QE ran hot and loud, even at idle, the CPU was in the 60s. I also wanted more than 16GB of RAM, a faster GPU, a non-Optimus laptop for use with XP and Vista, etc,

You're pretty old school. My main PC has 2.5TB of SSD storage, my laptop will have 2.5TB of SSD storage, my previous laptop has 0.75TB of SSD storage (Can't use M.2 SATA in "new" laptop)

That's what I do. I only use Driver Booster if I cannot find any drivers for the OS and the hardware

Going to see if I can disassemble the previous patch, and figure out what all was changed, then apply it to 16.1.0 Edit: NVM, the url already has patches for 16.1.0

So you can't even mention you're using a custom OS? Looks like I'm going to be banned for using my own custom copies of Windows then

Your best option would probably be to install Vista (with extended kernel), 7, or 8.0 and use it If you like fast and efficient, you'd probably like Windows Server 2012 R1. It's not at XP levels, but it works with almost everything that 7 does, and is very stable

Board's AGESA version is too new, causes Vista to break. Also, the GPU is from 2019, so no GPU drivers

It was my main system, until it got replaced. Then I got too lazy to use it anymore

Vista is pretty good for me, but I don't think I'll do more experimenting with it until I get a "new" laptop. I've seen fragmented bootup time though. On some installs it's as fast or faster than 7, and on other installs it takes 30+ seconds.

Thanks, but of the six possible download sites listed there, only SolidFiles and DataFileHost actually work for me. The rest are either blocked for security reasons, or don't actually work! EDIT: The SolidFiles and DataFileHost links actually download version 9.10.2015, which is not the latest XP compatible version, which is 20.12.2016.

Is that the System Update Readiness Tool? I think you only need that if you have trouble installing updates. If your system was freshly installed, there's no need. I usually go: Platform Update + Suplement > Internet Explorer 9 > Net Framework 3.5, 4.6 and updates > Powershell 2.0 + BITS 4.0 > Media Player 11 > General > Security > Hotfixes The idea is to install as many updated components as possible before moving on to the General, Security, etc updates. That way, the updates will cover a wider range of software. I'd say so, yeah. The main one would be the TLS 1.1 and 1.2 updates, but you can also add the SHA2 updates (they do make Windows Update non functional, but @abbodi1406 managed to make it work regardless. go to MDL and you'll find it) In here you won't find any. It's usually best if you create your own.

Man, I thought this was day was long in the future... sad to see it coming up so soon... On an unrelated note, glad to see there are other fellow W7+ users also part of the "Never Combine/Use small icons" club... welcome!

Country flags issue fixed.

Looking into it. Be patient.

FAQ: Q: Having audio distorted when watching Twitter/etc.? A: Please try turning on "Firefox compatibility" in options dialog or either "general.useragent.compatMode = 2" or "general.useragent.compatMode.firefox = true" in about:config and reload the page. Q: Can't play H264 clips? (for PM27/KM76/FF45) A: Download following packages for your browser edition(32bit/64bit) and extract DLLs to same place as palemoon.exe lives. 32bit LAV dlls are in separated package (extracted from K-Lite codec pack 13.5.5) https://o.rthost.win/palemoon/lav.7z Just in case if you have an older processor which has no SSE instruction set support: 32bit NoSSE (ffmpeg 3.1.1 lite build) https://o.rthost.win/palemoon/lav-dll-lite-mmx.7z 32bit No ASM (ffmpeg 3.1.1 lite build, if build above doesn't work on your processor) https://o.rthost.win/palemoon/lav-dll-lite-noasm.7z 64bit LAV dlls are in separated package (LAV Filters 64bit 0.70.2) https://o.rthost.win/palemoon/lav64.7z Q: AV1 Support? (for UXP-based applications except mailnews) A: You need to enable "media.av1.enabled" in about:config Q: VP9 Support? (for PM27) A: VP9 works if async MSE option is unchecked and "Enable MSE for WebM Video" checked in options. Q: Extensions/Themes not working after updating binaries. A: If you encounter extensions not show icon, clicking options button of extension causing browser unresponsive, etc. please try following actions: 1.a Killing palemoon.exe process 1.b Copy whole extensions folder out of profile folder (to somewhere else for example, desktop) 1.c Restart browser without restoring previous sessions 1.d Goto about:addons page 1.e Drop XPI files from the copied-out extensions folder to about:addonss page One-by-One. 1.f After all XPI files are dropped and installed/updated, restart browser Q: Virus detected? A: Tell your anti-virus program to exclude palemoon.exe and/or plugin-container.exe. Some anti-virus heuristic engines (for example symantec's sonar engine) is too sensitive to palemoon.exe/plugin-container.exe network activities. Q: Where's your patches for compiling my own? A: Please visit the link above "FAQ:". Latest source patch files are named "sources_patches_YYYYMMDD.7z" in that page. Q: basilisk browser showing basic pages in GMail? A: set these to "ture" in about:config general.useragent.compatMode.firefox general.useragent.compatMode.gecko Q: Should I let official Pale Moon and "New Moon" both using same profile (at the same time / alternatively)? A: it is not recommend to do that, as they have different NSS security library, which has different encryption procedure to the saved password database. Same profile being "touched" by different gecko/goanna applications may cause unexpected behaviors. If you want to launch both Pale Moon and "New Moon" / Basilisk and "Serpent" / etc. at the same time, one of them should be in "--no-remote" portable mode. Q: How to change User Interface language? A: Please see this post: Q: Portable Loader? A: You can always use official portable launcher with my binaries, or you can use my simple portable loader written in NSIS: Q: How to install extensions/themes in BNavigator browser? A: Please check this post out: (EDIT: you may need to change minVersion to 0.9.0a1 as upstream changed version to a lower value after this guide existed) Q: I want to verify if archive is not changed by others! A: from 30 October 2019, new archives will have ".asc" GPG detached signature. You can download signature separately by appending ".asc" (without quotation marks) after the archive URL. You can get my public key by following instructions in this post: Q: I'm getting 0xC000001D error when starting Serpent/UXP-ia32 browser! A: your processor does not support CMOV instruction. VC2015 IA32 build requires CMOV instruction support. here is a list of processors with CMOV instruction support: - Intel: Pentium Pro or later - AMD: K7 (original Athlon/Duron) or later - VIA: C7 or later - Transmeta: all CPUs are capable to run sp52-ia32. - Cyrix/IBM: 6x86MX or later, MediaGXm(MediaGX-S) or later - National Semiconductor/AMD: Geode GX or later - DM&P/Vortex86: Vortex86DX3 or later Q: I need WebAssembly support!
