  2. I think KB277222 is relevant to your question and, if so, the max size for the assembled registry structure in memory would be way less than implied in allen2's post, although it seems to me to be in line with the numbers in the KB article he gave a link to...
  3. double height taskbar too. Wow! Here, too!
  4. This is the wise thing to do. Make sure to backup all relevant data. Twice if possible. Only go ahead to any recovery/diagnosis procedure after everything is safely backed up.
  5. IIRR, the NT registry uses UNICODE encoding for strings, has more hidden fields... it it's a totaly different beast altogether than the 9x/ME ones, when looked at in binary.
  6. It might be the Power Supply... Do you have a spare one to test? If you replace it and all starts to behave normally, then problem solved. If not, then the power supply was OK after all, so there's no need to switch it back, just shelve it as the spare... and we move on to pursue other avenues of troubleshooting.
  7. The only tool that's able to deal with both types of registry is Regview, by the "General Paul Lee". Version 4.2 is quite stable, although not very intuitive to use: supposedly, if one starts it with no parameter, it would allow one to navigate to the file of interest, but I've never been able to get that part to work OK... when, however, it's run with the name of the target registry file one wants to edit as 1st and only command line parameter, it works like clockwork. However I've never used it to modify multi-string values in the XP registry, so I cannot guarantee it works as advised with thouse types, which are the main difference between the XP and 98SE registries. With the 98SE registry it just works.
  8. That one is a great song, no matter how controversial it may be!
  9. Your problem is the 160GB SATA 7200rpm drive. The best solution is RLoew's SATA patch. But you probably can run with the HDD in compatibility mode, too, although that may be just too slow. You probably don't even need the MaxPhysPage directive, because 98SE can work with 1 GiB OK, after adding MaxFileCache=393216. What options do you have, in the BIOS, regarding the SATA HDD?
  10. It should look like this: C:\explorer7\explorer.exe C:\explorer7\hu-HU\explorer.exe.mui C:\explorer7\patchex7.exe C:\explorer7\7.reg C:\explorer7\8.reg C:\explorer7\wrp32.dll C:\explorer7\wrp64.dll
  11. Please, let the matter rest.
  12. The BIOS IDE HDD Limitations. To follow some of the links therein, you may have to use the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine, due to sites having disappeared into the ether...
  13. Great! Thaks a lot, Tihiy!
  14. You want a safe, reliable, generic DDO, RLoew's is the best. It's not free, but it's worth the cost. All "partitioning schemes" used for HDDs beyond the BIOS detection are highly unsafe. These are my 2¢, of course.
  15. Agreed. Done!
  16. Did you run Scandisk, in DOS mode?
  17. If you have questions regarding the unattended installation of Windows XP, please post them in the Unattended Windows 2000/XP/2003 section.
  18. Post a *legible* picture of the blue screen complaining about vmm32.vxd. What exactly did you do? "Tampering with partition sizes" is way too vague.
  19. Try the link on KernelEx 1st post...
  20. Here is it: link... now, you did not look at this thread's very first post, did you?
  21. This resource, albeit somewhat old already, may be useful, so I give it's link here, to keep similar things as together as possible. List of the latest USB hotfixes for each Windows version (as of Nov 13, 2009).
  22. Did you visit Jan Steunebrink's Getting the AMD K6-2+ / K6-III+ to work on your Super Socket 7 board page?
  23. Wayback Machine to save the day again! Go for it, we fully well know it won't last! TweakUI 2.10, for XP SP1-SP3 and 2k3 TweakUI 2.00, for XP without any SP (this one is still hosted at MS).
  24. With all due respect, don't hold your breath. While Tihiy does always create free software, he rarely releases source code, and I, for one, think he's right in not releasing it. It truly is the only thing that allows an author to establish his authorship beyond reasonable doubt. I don't want this to become a hijack discussing the merits and shortcomings of open source, so, please, *do not* reply to this post, and let's keep ontopic. This is just for your information.
