As NT4 is not PnP OS, you don't need any chipset driver. for network card, there is limited choices that has NT4 driver.

I'm looking forward to your binaries

instead, I want new palemoon compiled for vanilla XP.

The program in C:\DOCUE~1\ALLUSE~1\APPLIC~1\FIREFL~1\STRONG~1\2031~1.6 is corrupted.

I wonder if newer Firefox (3.x - 12.0) will run with wrapper?

here it is: http://w2k.flxsrv.org/cgi-bin/wluc.cgi?OS=1&TYPE=-1&LANG=-1&DATE=2017&DATE2=/06

BWC's Kernel Ex v2.9/v2.9G is released, Japanese version only at the moment BTW.

the pushs should have "dword" keyword

Looks promising, great! Do codecs and DMO work? Did you try playing WMA/WMV?

Still accessible via http://update.microsoft.com/windowsupdate/v6/

For Qt5, instead of tracing, it is better to look at sources and build a debug build.

Thats me

Great, that will be fun BTW in NT4 MsgWaitForMultipleObjectsEx() API doesn't accept MWMO_INPUTAVAILABLE flag, which may cause problems with Qt4 programs. I patched Qt4 with some changes in order to made it work in NT4: diff -u5rwB --exclude=Makefile --exclude='Makefile.*' --exclude='*.prl' qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.5/src/corelib/kernel/qeventdispatcher_win.cpp QtWeb/src/qt/src/corelib/kernel/qeventdispatcher_win.cpp --- qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.5/src/corelib/kernel/qeventdispatcher_win.cpp 2013-06-07 08:16:52.000000000 +0800 +++ QtWeb/src/qt/src/corelib/kernel/qeventdispatcher_win.cpp 2013-06-26 20:58:22.064500000 +0800 @@ -810,11 +810,11 @@ if (!filterEvent(&msg)) { TranslateMessage(&msg); DispatchMessage(&msg); } - } else if (waitRet < WAIT_OBJECT_0 + nCount) { + } else if (waitRet >= WAIT_OBJECT_0 && waitRet < WAIT_OBJECT_0 + nCount) { d->activateEventNotifier(d->winEventNotifierList.at(waitRet - WAIT_OBJECT_0)); } else { // nothing todo so break break; } @@ -830,13 +830,13 @@ Q_ASSERT(nCount < MAXIMUM_WAIT_OBJECTS - 1); for (int i=0; i<(int)nCount; i++) pHandles[i] = d->winEventNotifierList.at(i)->handle(); emit aboutToBlock(); - waitRet = MsgWaitForMultipleObjectsEx(nCount, pHandles, INFINITE, QS_ALLINPUT, MWMO_ALERTABLE | MWMO_INPUTAVAILABLE); + waitRet = MsgWaitForMultipleObjectsEx(nCount, pHandles, INFINITE, QS_ALLINPUT, MWMO_ALERTABLE); emit awake(); - if (waitRet < WAIT_OBJECT_0 + nCount) { + if (waitRet >= WAIT_OBJECT_0 && waitRet < WAIT_OBJECT_0 + nCount) { d->activateEventNotifier(d->winEventNotifierList.at(waitRet - WAIT_OBJECT_0)); retVal = true; } } } while (canWait);

It is different approach here. For porting Qt4 back to NT4, I dug older version of Qt and find add back removed logic for older windows(NT4 and 95 here).

Yes, according to timeline, coding does not begin. https://developers.google.com/open-source/gsoc/timeline https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/organizations/5423529534160896/#5099385011568640

Seems font width measuring API returning 0 here. This happens when I port QtWeb to NT4. BTW will you do the same for but NT 3.51? It seems more interesting (and challenging, as missing Winsock2)

ReactOS is a clean room reversed engineering free reimplementation of Windows (now targeting 2003 SP1) and Google Summer of Code (GSoC) 2017 they started a branch implementing xHCI driver.

Maybe a working xHCI driver from ReactOS (GSoC 2017) will work on XP.

Thats nice, looks promising.

I dug in msfn and found this: and this may be why blackwingcat NOT to use 5.00.2195.7369. But what about Windows2000-KB2508429-v17(5.00.2195.7371)?

Wine has no NTFS related API but it still runs and encrypts files.

nope.

that may be hard as the change is quite large on some functions when I comparing 6860(pre MS17-010) and 7208(MS17-010 March for POSReady)

@Dibya I tried FontCreator 11 on vanilla XP SP3 and it doesn't show any window, can you test it in your ExtendedXP?

IMHO it's worth mentioning that XP with srv2k3's disk.sys doesn't make your XP accessing >2.2TB disk in full capability. and storport support is missing in XP so no workaround for accessing >2.2TB disk besides Paragon GPT loader w/ (S)ATA controller working in IDE mode.
