Release 9:
I can't run Opera 11.64 / 12.02 with comp. mode Win2000SP4 anymore.Kext doesn't matter. I testet with a modified, the original Kstub822.ini and without Kext. Then I checked on two other machines. Opera doesn't start. It runs with default options [KernelEX is enabled] only, but of course then the menus are unusable.
Opera starts if I replace Kexbasen 4.5.2015.9 by 4.5.2015.8.
Release 10: I still can't run Opera. Apparently my problem is caused by Kexbasen.dll.
Jumper, I don't know, if the KexApiLog might help:

I'm running 7Zip 9.38 beta with [Advapi32.dll] LsaAddAccountRights= and comp. mode Win2000SP4. Maybe someone can check this.
New release 7Zip 15.12: Right click Context menu doesn't appear and work (windows version check). Set KernelEx comp. modes of the executables and dll's in the 7Zip program files folder to Win2000SP4. 7-Zip.dll (Shell Extension) , 7zG.exe (GUI)...
Running 15.12:
- Kstub822:
[Advapi32.dll]
LsaAddAccountRights=r0xC0000002s4
- KernelEX compatibility mode: Win2000SP4

The automatic and manual vps update of Avast Home 5.1.889 failed on XP SP2 since 29th October, too. Same message: Not enough storage to process this command. I had tested successfully 4.8.1368 on XP SP2 after the 04 October. The update worked. But I suspect that it no longer works now.

Mixtures of different Player versions (plugin folder, Macromedia Flash folder and Registry) may cause the malfunction. A thorough uninstall is required.
Also wrong KernelEX comp. mode settings may cause the malfunction. Note the name of the Flash dll: If the name is (with version number) NPSWF32_19_0_0_245.dll, set the KernelEX comp. mode of the file to Win2000SP4 or (and) set Opera.exe to Win2000SP4.
My settings are: NPSWF32_19_0_0_245.dll > default [KernelEX is enabled] ; Opera.exe > Win2000SP4
Many other reasons are possible.

And I checked the system with Everest and it tells me that the SATA is running at UDMA5 ! Shouldn't it be at least UDMA6 ?
Is there anything else that I still need to change in BIOS and/or Win98SE to get better speed ?
Most probably it is a wrong speed information. Better check the HDD speed with HDTach 2.70 or CrystalDiskMark9x or other tools. The results of different tools will be slightly varying.

Sumatra PDF 3.1 portable requires to run: [Kernel32.dll] InitializeSListHead (supported by Kstub822)
- There is a problem with the installer. The window is empty without buttons and text.
I have some prereleases. The Installer of the prerelease 3.1 10314 (September) works.
- Can someone still print with ComDlgKs.dll or ComDlgEx.dll (topic - Printing with KernelEX)?

I don't recommend to install Win ME on a pentium 1 machine.
Minimum hardware requirements:
Pentium 150MHz, 32 MB Ram, 320 MB HDD
Recommended:
Pentium 2, 64 MB Ram, 2 GB HDD
I think you'll have no fun. Probably your machine will be unbearably slow! Not to mention you intend to install programs like OpenOffice 3.x, Opera 11.xx or Firefox 9 ...
Ten maybe fifteen years back I had a Pentium 1 (200MHz). Win 95 ran well on it, but not 98SE. It was much to slow. Leave your 98SE on your pentium 1, if it runs fine.

The automatic and manual vps update of Avast! 4 Home 4.8.1368 fail on ME since 4th October. Message: Not enough storage to process this command. It still works on XP. Avast had worked in the background without any problems on one machine here so far except that it delayed the startup. The VPS def file had enlarged up to 200MB in recent years.

For information or for those who write their own Kstub.ini: Now the Flash Player requires [NTDLL] RtlInitUnicodeString. It is already supported by Kstub822. The browser crashes without this entry.
Needed in the ini file to run the Flash Player:
[ADVAPI32.DLL] ChangeServiceConfig2W
[Gdi32.dll] GdiAlphaBlend
[iPHLPAPI.DLL] GetAdaptersAddresses
[Kernel32.dll] GetSystemWow64DirectoryW
[NTDLL] RtlInitUnicodeString
KernelEX 4.5.2 (November 2011) Flash Player 19.0.0.185

The option button becomes grayed out and unusable if I want to save as another format on Win Me with KernelEx enabled. Not that I care too much about FSViewer however as I am an XnView user and fanboy.
XnView also requires Kernelex since a little while but no features are broken apparently.
Can you change the language of XnView? (Tools>Options>Interface or xnview.ini [start] Language= ) It sticks to English.
Possible is to copy the xnview.ini of "Application Data XnView" to the program folder in the case that the file doesn't exist in the program folder of XnView. Then set the desired language in the ini file. This file can disappear and XnView sticks to English again.I can set Tools>Options>System integration>Save options>as ini file in folder to "XnView". Then I must set the desired language in the ini file. Afterwards the language selection works.
The other "Save options" for the ini allow no selection.
XnView Version 2.34. This behavior occurs with three machines here. OS WinME

I haven't had much luck with KernelEx
I've had many installer failures with KernelEx...
This is certainly no bug of KernelEX. Probably something is missing. What error message you have?
Did you install the WindowsInstaller 2.0 ? The msiexec.exe should be in your systemfolder.

My problems with KernelEx are probably related to how my copy of 98SE is setup.
What exactly do you mean? What's different with your setup?
Usually KernelEX 4.5.2 (14 November 2011) without Kext is easy to install and use. The only requirement is Microsoft Layer for Unicode MSLU (unicows.dll version 1.1.3790.0 (07 December 2004)). Don't copy an older version of unicows.dll in your system folder.

The button works if I write the planned file type (with name) into the "Object name" box. The type must be the same in the "save as Type" box.
On XP it works better.

FS Image Viewer 5.4 (OS WinME KernelEX 4.5.2015.8):
The "Save as" function (post 399) and the Options button (post 402) work here, if KernelEX is enabled. They fail, if I disable KernelEX. Kext (kstub822) doesn't matter. So far I testet on one machine and KernelEX 4.5.2015.8 only.

v1.4.6.0
- Fixed random empty code type selection under Windows ME- GUI improvements to eliminate confusion about utility of 'code type' selector
"Random empty code type selection under Windows ME" =>It hasn't occured anymore (tested with 82.16 and 82.69). Where exactly was the problem?:
Maybe your system is too fast (or too slow?)
"GUI improvements ..." => much better
v1.5.1.0:
Fixed wrong code sequences in the ini file for WinME (bug carried on since v1.4.4.0)... => Now Win ME shuts down with safe (a) code, too (tested with 82.16 and 82.69) .

Before running the CodeType entry is 1.
I repeated the first start without patching several times. Sometimes the box was empty (the scroll down menu shows all modes), but sometimes there was "safe" inside. Odd
0 -
But I can select all modes.
0 -
The code type box is empty with the first run only.
0 -
OK, "wide" and "full" works. ME users should see, that they must select these options. Obviously the "safe mode" is the default one, if you don't select "code type" (empty box).
And another thing, I see two differences between code of rloew in the first post and your ShutdownPatcher:

I checked the first option "Patch installed driver in place". Applies "code type" option under the second option to the first, too?

I have found a second System Message that needs to be bypassed in order to shutdown Windows ME.
I have updated Post #1 to include both System Messages and the alternate Message found by Miki.
Yes the power supply shuts down on both machines, 7800GT with driver 82.16 and 7900GS with driver 82.69.
Apparently it works as desired.

Try this Patch for 82.69:
144: C8 -> DB (changed)
329802: DA A7 E4 FF -> C2 05 00 00 (same)
329DC8: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 -> 3C 25 74 04 3C 32 75 02 B0 52 89 44 24 04 E9 05 A2 E4 FF
Is this code to test for 98SE only or also for ME?
I just tried "25 75" with a 7200 GS and 81.98 Driver ...
It has a G72. Some years ago I tried to install the driver 81.98 for G70 and G73 without success. So I thought that 81.98 doesn't work with NV 7xxx cards.
