    Then I installed the Unofficial Windows 98 Second Edition Service Pack from there:

    I chose to install the option to update Outlook Express as I wanted to upgrade it to OE6 trying to help fix my connection problems but after booting Outlook Express didn't start anymore because MSOE.DLL could not be loaded.

    There could be a bug in that SP or something went wrong. You could reinstall IE(OE)5.5 or 6.0 from another source. I'm not very familiar with Win98 service packs, because I'm running WinME, but the following links should lead to all the information you need.

  2. I'm not sure about GMail and IMAP. I have a working connection with a POP3 freenet account. However, I haven't checked SSL for listening, so also not in OE account/Properties/Advanced. Checked is SSL for remote here in WinSSLWrap. Further I didn't change the service names (still POP3 {SSL} Protocol/SMTP {SSL} Protocol).

  3. Tested and confirmed FAT32 detection by default - without registry entry!

    Most likely, some volume is reserved by the built-in graphics. This value can usually be changed in the BIOS. I also have 8GB, but the ramdisk size is different:

    P965 hasn't built-in graphics, but yes the reserved size is different for each board. POST gives 7104MB here, what is quite little.RDProp.png.d69be4aae1bea186601138a57402a572.png

  4. I found my mistake. Setting the command path beforehand on system seems crucial.

    - the command path (either in pure DOS mode or Safe mode DOS window) is set to [C:\]WINDOWS\SYSTEM;

    Until now I thought it doesn't matter and I could enter the entire path starting from the command path C:\, which apparently doesn't work in this case. In any case, the new file was created without comment and confirmation. Thanks to you all again.

    Under Windows ME on RAM drive you should get FAT32 volume (not FAT16) by default with size ~4.5 GiB on 8 GiB RAM.

    Sorry, of course I mean RAMDrive and not swap file.

    It is to be assumed that the drive should grow accordingly with size of RAM and switch to FAT32 by default. The question is why this didn't happen here.

    is there any patch for add 'send to...' on context menu?(inlued the removal drives)

    Do you mean, that you don't have "Send To" in your context menu or do you only need "Unplug or Eject Hardware" inside SendTo?

    The start order of "Unplug or Eject Hardware" is "RunDll32.exe shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL hotplug.dll".

    Maybe somebody here can write you a simple bat/cmd file.

     

  7. My condolences. I wish you the necessary strength. My Mother still lives and is 91 years old. First I only compared MD5 of PTCHNVSZ.zip and PATCHNVC.EXE. These are the same. NVCheck and NVSize work. Thanks for sharing.

  8. I tried to install R.Loews "NVIDIA GRAPHICS CARD SIZE PATCH" (PTCHNVSZ.zip) for a GF7950GT 512MB. I got "cannot open source file" on prompt "PATCHNVC NVCORE.BAK NVCORE.VXD". What am I doing wrong or does anyone have an idea?
