The same applies to roytam's KM74. Youtube doesn't work. The booklet workaround is Ok, but it takes to much time. For some reason I can't install HyperBK (0.5.3 - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/hyperbk/) on FF9.0.1. Maybe I have a wrong setting or I've forgotten a trick. Firefox reports it isn't compatible.

@diamant: I already testet it in June (see my post of 12 June). Downgrade the Kexbases.dll to version 16. We'll see, if you get the same result.

Yes, now youtube works in KM74 (Win ME). There isn't the right-click menu of the player with the possibility to save like in FF9.0.1.

Yes, I also can run KM 74G usable on two computers. On my other two KM is slow, freezes after a short time or on some pages like this board. I don't know the reason yet. The profile files are created since KernelEX Kexbases.dll update 16, also Key3.db, here. The creation of Key3.db fails after update to Kexbases 17. I hope jumper find the culprit and solve the problem. KM worked with the db files of FF 9.0.1, 10.0.12 and 17.ESR, too. The Auxiliary DLL Updates, psapi and uxtheme seem to have no effect in this case. One more problem is that KM crashes when bookmarking: Runtime error - KM caused an error in MSVCR80... after browser restart the bookmark works. Also (some) KM settings on lower button of duckduckgo startpage don't work or stick.

Ironman69 runs the HTML5 Player inside Opera. The HTML5 Player must run, without registry keys or tweaks! Maybe he simply set the KernelEX mode to 98SE.

Yes, I selected different countries and all. The new list will not load, too. It doesn't matter, if KernelEx is enabled or disabled. I selected Spain and Italy, because there are only these countries in this list.

Yes, I ran WebTV Stream on Friday. It started, but the playlist didn't load. Message: Empty playlist. I tried it with VLC 0.8.6a and 0.8.6i. And it didn't start with vlc version 1.0.3 or 2.2.6 installed.

Kstub823: Is there something special to pay attention? I already replaced 822 on three machines. Upload problem: Today I had successfully uploaded a test file with Opera 12.02 - theme IPS default and FF 9.01.

After change of KernelEx 4.5.2 to 4.5.2016.17 on my "test system" Ren'py still runs. So probably it isn't a problem of KernelEX. r3muxd, you should start a new topic here in the Windows 9x/ME forum. Or maybe you had expected other tests?

Java installer errors occur very often. Usually they have nothing to do with 98/ME or KernelEx! A search for error 1330 in the web could help. There are some answers. I'm not sure anymore, if in this case an older Version of the Windows Installer causes errors. Latest version for 98/ME is 2.0.2600.2. I found Javafixer.org in the WayBackMachine: Java Fixer

I doesn't know anything about Ren'Py. But I tried to run your Tutorial.exe and the ren'py.exe of version 6.14.1 on two machines and both start and run on my ME/KernelEX 4.5.2 test system. They fail to run on my main computer ME/KernelEX 4.5.2016.17. It requires more tests to clarify, if it has to do with KernelEx 4.5.2016.17.

The user who added Ren'Py did this in August 2012! So he tested older versions up to 2012. There is no newer editing of the text. https://www.renpy.org/release_list.html

There are at least two reasons why you can't install the driver. First reason is the inf file is too big. It's about 150 KB. It must be shortened to less than 64 KB! On my systems the files should not bigger than 53 KB. Not needed sections can be deleted. The second is inside the inf there is a reference to a "athwx.sys" file (Installs athwx.sys (NDIS 5 driver) on 9x platforms). This file has apparently been removed. There is only the athw.sys file for NT systems. The most suitable inf file entry is: ATHER.DeviceDesc.3091 = "Atheros AR928x Wireless Network Adapter"

It would be great, if someone solves the problem to run 12.1x. I have invested a lot of time without success. We were able to run 12.10 and 12.12 in the background, this means it didn't initialize the GUI. See Kext topic page 13. The Setup of Qt Web Browser 3.5 and higher requires comp. mode Win2000SP4 and KernelEx must be enabled to run it. Latest Version 3.8.5 based on older Qt framework 4.8.5. Before you allow internet access you must disable Java Script, otherwise QT Web will crash.

http://www.msfn.org/board/uploads/css_built_*_custom.css.* Yes, it works for Opera Presto. I tested 12.02, 11.64, 10.01, 10.1, 10.63 and 12.18 on XP. The Sign in isn't possible directly especially with 11.64. Possible for example: 1. Zoom to max + Fit to Width, 2. Uncheck Page Style sheet, 3. try it via "IPS Default", if necessary uncheck JavaScript for it.

Thanks for the condolence. small movie

Is there hope to use the Presto engine of Opera again to visit that board? Since one week, I get only a blue screen with a short text "ipsfocus42-november1". It would be a great pity, because my favorite OS is ME. Latest version 12.18 on XP is also affected.

For three or four days, I get only a blue background here on this board and a short text "ipsfocus42-november1". All Opera versions (10.1 up to 12.5) are affected. Do you have the same problem and did you find a setting or workaround?

The files or fragments that scandisk found are often not recoverable. But you can check "Convert to file". Then Scandisk saves the fragments in C. The Filename Extension is CHK. Afterwards you can try open the CHK file(s) with notepad. Perhaps something is readable. Also there are tools like deCHK. DeCHK recognises about 50 file extensions. There are many free clone tools like HDClone or CloneZilla. I recommend the self-booting version or ISO file, which you burn on CD.

There is no version Opera 12.50. It is 12.5 (Snapshot build 1513) and is older than 12.15. The introduced plugin wrapper doesn't run on 98/ME. So the FlashPlayerPlugin doesn't work in Opera 12.5 and higher. The HTML5 player runs inside 12.5 with only 360p and a saving possibility (right click menu) of 480p.

Probably a typo: It isn't 11.63, but 10.63. FF9.01 runs stable without bookmark function on 98/ME and KernelEX. It was reported that FF10 runs on some systems, too. But mostly not.

Opera 12.15 or FF 43 don't work on 98/ME, neither with KernelEX. @Nomen: Yes, the 98/ME community isn't important in the wider internet, but I think it should be on this MSFN board site.

This report should be into the topic "Forum upgrade to v4.2!". But yes these buttons (Home-Microsoft Software Products-Windows 9x/ME...) don't work. You can create bookmarks or zoom the page to +. Then the look changes and you see only one working button. I don't think it has become much worse than before. Of course, these are annoying glitches.
