The windows itself is updated to 4.00.950B (USB support included).The Explorer.exe is also 4.00.950B as I remember,but I will take a look again for a case. Checked, it's 4.00.950 version

Hi everyove, does anybody remember for which offset to take a look for in Explorer.exe to patch it for 256 color tray icons? Dr. Hoiby did a lot of patches for most of the Windows versions, but I would like to patch it on my Win95OSR2 Czech version and for this one I can't find anything. Thanks for help Comos

Hi everyone, does anybody know please,how to get the CD-text working under Win95OSR2 when playin a CD in Winamp / stock CD player or during riping example in CDex.Under my Win98SE it is working from the basis. Where is the difference? In the OSR2 CD driver? Thanks for advice Cheers

With newer SHLWAPI.DLL I have succeed,but then there was problem of missing module in USER32.DLL

IMGBurn I use also,but mainly for burning or creating images.

Hi everyone, does anybody have experience with running the last verison of DeepBurner under Win95? During the installation,they claim,that it is designed for Win95, 98,but when I try to start it,then it prompts that there are missing some modules in SHLWAPI.DLL After when I used newer SHLWAPI from Win98SE it reports also that also in USER32.DLL some modules are missing...so bad luck :-/ Are there also other buring programs for Win9x that can handle newer DVD burners?

Patched Scandisk and Defrag is workin fine. NSW I don't have, sorry!

2) I do not use 500GB FAT32 partitions. dencorso suggests 250GB FAT32 as max. partition size, I am even more cautious and use only 192GB. More than 2 years I use USB Toshiba 320GB drive which was originally formatted to FAT32 from the factory,till now no problem at all and 3 years a WD250RE whole in FAT32 and also no problem :-) Both also workin on Win98SE ,seems there is no issue with partition size greater than 250GB ... :-)

Seems that I have found that problem.According to USBman's tips I have to disable the IRQ sharing for that PCI slot.So I will try that ...

It's surprising but there doesn't seem to be a copy at MDGx's site. You should try the author's e-mail address, given at (see 2010/12/07 blog entry) : http://ysai187.blogs.linkbucks.com/ Joe. Done...hope I will get the answer soon.Maybe it would be a good idea to save those files also here.

I can confirm,that the USB drive over 137GB works with my Win98SE ,I have only installed the >137GB patch and NUSB (in that time there were not the lates) and it works with my USB Toshiba 320GB drive.I had to use USB hub with PSU,the power from one port was not enough.I also tried my WD 1Tera and also workin fine through NTFS for Win98 from Paragon.

That combo card is like normal two cards installed in the system but only 2-1, nothing special.NUSB I have installed latest, maybe this problem is due to some mess in the USB drivers.

Hi Tomas, a year and a half ago I bought an eSATA-PATA-USB combo card VIA VT6421A, which came with drivers for Win98. I never got it to work with my Asus P5PE-VM motherboard under Win98. It's lying in a box somewhere now. How about getting just a USB 2.0 card, no combo card? My Asus P5PE-VM motherboard has just 3 PCI slots, that's why I tried a combo PCI card initially. Eventually I'll be getting a PCI adapter for laptop PCCards. There are good laptop PCCards for USB 2.0, eSATA etc. That combo card with VIA VT6421A I have also,when I wanted to add another disk,but later I bought a Promise UltraTX133 which is workin perfecty.I can get a standalone USB2.0 card ,what I have seen in the stores there are two types with the NEC and VIA chipset. I'll try that NEC one and see what will happen....That combo card was a solution for me with faster USB and to add another disks atleast in SATA. What were your symptoms,that was not able to get it to work?

HI everyone, does anybody have experience with running a USB2.0 (NEC chipset) on Win98SE? Currently I have a addon card from Vipower,where is USB2.0 and SATA controller. I installed it without problems,when the Win starts, tested,workin OKay,but suddenly after reboot the windows gets stuck during booting (not freezed,the CTRL+ALT+DEL still works). So under safe mode I removed the drivers for USB2.0 card and then the system boots up normaly.There were no conflicts ,nothing.I tried to use the stock drivers on Vipower CD and also the drivers from our unofficial service pack for Win98SE ,but the result was the same. Any ideas? Maybe to disable the onboard USB 1.0 in BIOS? Tomas

Does anyone have the SH95UPD files please? It is not possible to download it from the hosted site.....

KMPlayer I used on my laptop,but I dunno why but it was crashing on small videoclips.So I uninstall it and now I use SPlayer and all is okay.I'll try this version of KM,hope after installation will not consume plenty of space

Once again, not sure if it will help you or not, but take a look at this. I'm not familiar with this project, but I think it may be the closest thing to what you're looking for. Thanks for the link.This is what I was looking for a looong time ....hmm seems that the links for the files (@ Mediafire) are not working anymore or what. Can not download ..... :-/

Hardware decoding of MPEG2 by the DVD player itself, implies a video output directly from the DVD player. Do such (internal) players exist? If so, look for some sort of connector at the back of the player, find out its details, then check for a video card that has an input for whatever type of signal this may be (fibre optic???). Anyway, I've not heard of DVD players having such a capability. Joe. I don't meant a pure DVD Player but a software DVD Player.Some players like PowerDVD, WinDVD, MP classic, MPlayer support it.Most of them run through DXVA...then you can reduce some CPU load.In Mplayer,the Vidix option can be used directly for nVidia chips...but it's not workin on Win95OSR due to missing exports...**** ! Wish there will be KernellEx ported to Win95OSR Tomas

I'm not sure if it will help you or not, but according to this page PowerDVD XP (PowerDVD 4) will run on Windows 95. Power DVD 5 lists Windows 98 as a requirement, but I don't know if it really doesn't work or whether they just didn't want to support it. Okay,thanks.I will try the newer ones if I can get it to work

Hi Everyone, is there any DVD player,that still work on Win95OSR2 and uses hardware decoding for MPEG2? GFX card that I use is GF4 MX440,that according to the specs supports the hardware decoding,but how to utilize it under Win? I tried PowedDVD 3,that is working ,but when I turn on hardware acceleration,then it shows up an internal error.Maybe it's too old to handle GF4. When using software decoding, the AMD K6@400 handels it,but it's not smooth enough. Thanks for advice

It would be nice also to have a port of Kernel Ex on Win 95OSR2 ... I use both OS, but Win95OSR2 more

Hello, Im using Winamp v5.35 for a longer time without problems,but one day suddenly it started to do strange things.When I closed the program I was not able to run him again or the Win98SE will hang during shutdown.With my Northon crashguard installed,I have discovered,that when on program close a service DDE server stops responding.Normally, when Winamp is running this is not visible in Norton Crashguard, but only on program close.I must terminate this process to be able to run Winamp again or shutdown the PC.The same thing happends on applications with Nullsoft installer.I have reinstalled the Win98SE,but only by running the installer and copy all stuff (drivers..etc) again,but the problem still occurs.Reinstalling Winamp won't help,so it might be somethin in the registry,but what? Any idea?

When I tried the older ones (30.30 I think),then the card was working,but in the nVidia's control center,the card was not recognized correctly (only the videochips core codename was shown).But I haven't test those games and applications with these drivers.

Sorry, a misstype.The drivers are 41.09.They were the last,that I was able to install in Win95.In the newer ones,the installer kick me off.
