WinNTSetup 5.3.1 - updated wimlib to version 1.14.1 (faster wim capture) - fixed GUI capture may ignores WimScript.ini - fixed wimlib LZMS capture did not used solid compression - fixed auto format option should disable free space warning - fixed wincopy/wimcapture could not be canceled during VSS creation - fixed Win7-11-Select.xml required all fields to be set - added some support for MinWin with ARM64 sources - added commandline switch: -NoTweaks - much faster wincopy (wimlib mode) - changed wimboot/compact mode don't use exclusion for GPT formated disk

Of course you can - my update was smooth (64-bit).

ok im debating on upgrading my pc. its 10 years old in june. i play games, not alot casual(tried new far cry 6 and the last of us, but wont run) surf the web and watch tv shows on it. Or i dont get a new pc and hold out until my pc is 15 years old. my currrent pc right now is: AMD A8 6600k overclocked to 4.29GHZ(stock fan) 8GB DDR3 1600mhz ram(1 stick of ram) Gigabyte GTX 760 2GB overclocked- 60 core, 610 memory MSI A78-m motherboard 2TB 7200rpm hard drive 850 watt power supply dvd rom drive(dont know what speed) wireless usb mouse PS2 keyboard Dell 17" LCD monitor(got it free a few years old from a co-worker) i want to keep this new pc (hopefully) for another 10-15 years. i looked around for used and new systems. i narrowed it down to these. all prices are in CAD dollars. i would be playing at 1280x1024 not like very high quality. Used systems: first one: i7 4790 16gb ram 2x500gb hard drive onboard video card 150.00 bucks second one: i7 4790k 16gb ram 1tb and 2x500gb hard drive 1080ti video 250.00 third: amd ryzen 3100 16gb ddr4 3700mhz cl17 ram 300 bucks without GPU and 120gb ssd or 330 with 512gb ssd m.2 350 with the 580 but just the 120gb ssd, 8gb of ram. 400 with the rx Sapphire pulse 580, but only a 126gb ssd with it. <--The 580 is actually never been used. It's sat in the box. only tested if it works. 440 with Sapphire pulse 580 and the 500gb ssd fourth: Lenovo TC M720s model: 10ST002FUS 2.8 GHz intel Windows 10 operating system Monitor, keyboard and mouse included 400 fifth: i5 12 core, 12th gen 16gb Ram. 250gb SSD 500GB HDD. wifi, HDMI, 6x USB. gigbit nic. windows 11, Updted. dell optiplex 3000- 350.00 sixth: HP Pavillion Gaming Desktop TG-01-1209. NVIDIA GeForceGTX 1660 Super, Intel Core i7-10700F @2.90GHz 8 core(s), 16 GB DDR4 RAM, 256 GB PCIe NVMe SSD, 1TB HDD @ 7200 RPM, Windows 11. 1 DisplayPort, 1 HDMI, 1 VGA. 650.00 New Pc at walmart- MSI MPG Trident 3 12TC-025CA Desktop Computer, Intel Core i5-12400F, 16GB Memory, 512GB SSD, NVIDIA GeForce RTX3060, WiFi 6E, Windows 11 Home, VR Ready | Walmart Canada- 1599.99 but i have a 275.70 gift cards to use on it so it would be 1284.99 plus local taxes. edit i played cypherpunk 2077 v1.62 on my pc and it ran at 30 fps with all low settings!

ps - I can't guarantee that the overclocked AMD would pass the OptiPlex or the Pavilion, it *might* but wouldn't know without "bench testing".

The Dell OptiPlex i5-12500T wins in this ilst hands down. Followed by the HP Pavilion i7-10700F. Third "factory" is the AMD Ryzen 3 3100 - but if you are going to overclock, then this moves to the top of the list (I personally no longer overclock, "been there, done that").

Thanks mate. I edited the to show how to do that. Cheers.

Interesting how late Opera shows up in that animation. I knew of people using it in the 90s.

Yep, good , but you should also detail how you create the Z:\ volume in unused RAM (Imdisk, awealloc, Gavotte, whatever) for your report to be replicable/useful to other users. jaclaz

Ah, true! It depends on your preference, then: WRP will work on pretty much any browser you can run in Win3.x/NT 3.1/NT 3.5, but BrowService has issues with very ancient browsers so you’d need to go for a high end offering of the time. For parity’s sake I would recommend 16-bit IE5 as it’s the last version for 3.x & NT 3.1/3.5. It’s recent enough to have good compatibility with WRP and BrowService, has a simple and intuitive interface, and runs well on old PCs. As for my recommendation of the two proxies my choice is WRP because it works with more old browsers than BrowService, but I will say that BrowService may be a better option for the browsers that can handle it properly (you’re looking at IE4/IE5 era ones minimum).

As an update: given the extremely higher memory load being forced upon us by the malconceived practices on the internet by GG and GG wannabes, I revisited this thread. Since last month, I've managed to mount a swapfile on the "invisible" RAM of my day to day 8gb set up, with the following settings. It seems to me to make browsing life better (no BSOD, hardly any SP52 or 360chrome crash). The procedure is simple. 1) In system properties, advanced, performance, make sure there is no swapfile (virtual memory) in any of your hard drives. You can tell by the attached pic of the corresponding system properties tab, but double check looking for pagefile.sys in your hard drives (virtual or not), anyway. 2) Get swapadd.exe from the links provided by @jaclaz above, and run it from prompt to guarantee that. A simple plath to swapadd in the console would do, as per the pic of the command prompt. 3) Create a virtual temp folder using up all the invisible RAM. I did it with Vsuite RamDisk (Romex) 1.10, which has not failed me once since I use it (10 or more years?). See the vsuit ramdisk picture with the specs with which I created it. Through system path assignments using registry, app customizations and RapidEnvirnoment Editor 9.2 build 937, I put in there the temp folder(s), IE internet crap (which is created even though I don't use it and have crippled him badly, zoombie SOB) and all browsers' caches (BTW, SP52 doesn't seem to follow command anymore -i.e., user_pref("browser.cache.disk.parent_directory","Z:\Cache\Profile). See corresponding pic of z:\ drive contents with the standard set of system and apps created contents. 4 Create a bat with the following code path to\swapadd "z:\pagefile.sys" 1000M 3800M 5) Add your bat file, in 4, to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run Restar, and once back in, you won't find any pagefiles, but it is there in the "hidden" 4+ gb of RAM according to the specs (8gb of RAM in XP32) mentioned in this topic. Interestingly, since (perhaps) swapadd is already in use, when you try to use swapadd to look for it from the command prompt, you get "'swapadd' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file" anymore -which wasn't the case before 5 above-. You can however copy and run swapadd (in a command promt) from somewhere else, and it doesn't pick up there is a swapfile (as shown in the prompt white on black pic). Systemexplorer 7.1.0.5xxx or Memorybooster 1.x show you however it is there in (virtual) memory. See picture of systemexplorer reporting the resources used by mydegrag, including almost 1.5 gb of virtual memory -out there in an out of sight pagefile.sys that can't be found nowhere. Truly pirate spookng. I wonder, though, if this would hold through were I to fill the virtual temp folder in Z up to the brink... Short of dropping a large file there, I have run mydefrag for days on some old data hard drives, which consumes quite a bit of cpu resources, but also makes a hell of a lot of constant write operations to swap (see, again, edited pic of mydefrag use if virtuak memory in systemexplorer report). In the meanwhile, the ~4g virtual temp drive reports the low use that normal browser cache and temp operations (see the drive's properties pic). So I'm happy. On of these days, though, I will play with cooledit (which uses lots of temp forlder resources) and see what happens. Cheers.

you still need a web browser to use them(i.e. browsers' browser)

The question was about wrp and browservice.

I would suggest not "installing" but rather extract TWICE with 7-Zip. Extract the .exe to get to the .7z inside. Extract that .7z. Overwrite the "existing installation" with those files.

CLUE+TIP: I get the Root Certificates List from Microsoft Website (ca. all 3 Months) per CAB.File Download ... http://ctldl.windowsupdate.com/msdownload/update/v3/static/trustedr/en/authrootstl.cab Unpack authrootstl.cab, it contains one file authroot.stl. You can install this file in the system using the context menu of the STL file (Install CTL).

Well, good news... I received a Intel gen 9 motherboard yesterday (H310 chipset) it took me like a working day (5PM to 1AM) to make it happen... but now I have a stable Windows 98 running on real hardware on a Intel Gen 9 CPU, with video (PCI-E ATI X700) and sound Aureal AU8810 (via a PCI-E to PCI adapter). Too bad I ran out of PCI-E slots, because I have a PCI-E to USB card compatible with Win 9X. I don't recommend using R. Loew memory patch or himemx during the installation phase.

I have them. See below and bookmark this post, so that you can always see them when logged in. [Edit] The link to yt-dlp doesn't change any more. It is hosted on GitHub for quite some time now.
