  1. Hello WaltMG, If I understand correct, your Win 2000 SP4 mode isn't accepted. That means you can't set Win 2000 mode. First verify the installation (Startmenu). Did you try to reinstall KernelEX? Do you really have unicows.dll version 1.1.3790.0? Did you install windows installer 2.0 for win 98?
  2. Hello Valvados, I don't know, if there is a Win98 driver for atheros AR9271, ralink 3070 or 2070. You have to search in the web. I don't think that these devices are already discussed here. Sometimes there exist older driver versions for Win98. Ralink driver version 5.0.7.0 have a 2k XP inf (rt2870.inf) 675 KB big. The signature "$Chicago$" is OK, but it must be smaller than 64 KB! Even reducing it to 60 KB by deleting not necessary entries for your device brings only a small chance that it works. The Compaq Presario 1200 is old and 312MB for XP SP3 is much too little. Probably XP SP1 will work well. Of course the full HDD makes it sluggish, too.
  3. The Foxit reader versions 5 and 6 need the GdiPlus.dll, too.
  4. The GDIPLUS.DLL is required for version 1.2 and higher. Yes copying XP's dbghelp.dll to its folder works for 98SE and ME. Also copying the dbghelp.dll of XP into the system folder works.
  5. My system is 98SE with Revolution Pack. It does not have dbghelp.dll OK: 98SE doesn't have the DBGHELP.dll. The ME version works for SumatraPDF 2.3.x! The file must be added to the systemfolder and it must be added in the registry HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\SessionManager\KnownDLLs. Also there is a problem with versions 2.0 and 2.1. on 98SE plain vanilla. The msvcrt.dll has to be replaced by the ME version. Or we find good stubs for [MSVCRT.DLL] _time64= _wstat64= to run these versions. After adding them to the Kstub.ini Sumatra starts, but crash in order to open a pdf file.
  6. It does not work for me. Is it necessary to copy dbghelp.dll from XP? Hallo slhk, No, a dbghelp.dll from XP isn't required. I just checked it on a ME installation without updates (plain vanilla, KernelEX 4.5.2, Kstub 822). But necessary is a the GDIPLUS.DLL. It is required for the Revolutions Pack, too. z4 may be omitted. Also I'll examine it on 98SE.
  7. I always set the ATA controller in the BIOS to Compatible. Usually I only use two devices and not more (HDD and CD/DVD Drive). I never had the need for 5 or more devices. Fujitsu Siemens D2156 A1: Phoenix BIOS - ATA Controller Config > SATA Mode > Compatible Asus P5 KPL EPU: AMI BIOS - Storage Configuration > ATA/IDE Configuration > Compatible
  8. I moved the Hard Disk with Win ME installed back into the i945G machine. All drivers (windows\inf\machine.inf, machine2.inf and MSHDC.inf) installed properly without problems. The look into the Windows System Information confirmed that. "DMA / I/O / IRQ / Memory" status is OK. "Problem Devices" aren't recognised.
  9. Sorry I'm not sure what you mean by "comp. mode". If you mean the download completion message that pops up bottom right, as I said it doesn't work at all for me in the "Windows 98SE SP" KernelEx mode. Also a lot of menu entries are missing for me. Some of them are just missing their text, but in some places the menu structure seems to be corrupted too. All this comes good if I revert to Windows 2000 KernelEx mode. I'm sorry but I really don't think Opera is usable like that, especially if you're a power user as I am. I mean my compatibility mode number 11. I believe this mode isn't accepted on your system (doesn't stick) and thus Opera runs with KernelEX default mode.
  10. Thanks for the report! I will make a cleaner edit of the MACHINE2.INF file (and may try to figure out what the exact size limit is in bytes) soon; and I hope to find the time to make Windows ME specific INFs and add to the project at some point. Probably there is very little difference from the 98SE versions though. What is the manufacturer and model of the motherboards you used? Did you experience any problems with ACPI? Your inf files already work on Win ME as good as on Win98SE! I tested with the G31. Used Motherboards: G31 > Asus P5 KPL EPU See topic "Modern motherboards which are working with Windows 98" There are no drivers for onboard sound and the Asus ATK 0110 virtual device (not required). I use PCI SB 128 (Ensoniq 1373). ACPI 2.0 must be disabled in BIOS. i945G > Fujitsu Siemens D2156 A1 There's no driver for onboard sound. I use instead PCI SB 128. HT must be disabled in BIOS. Usually I set power options Monitor / Hard Disk / Standby to never and Hibernate to disabled, because normally the system doesn't reawakened. That has probably more to do with the graphics driver of the card.
  11. I've done some more tests, and I'm afraid the notification at the bottom right of frame for when downloads end is definitely not working for me with that configuration. I assume this applies to all these notifications, e.g. for blocked pop-ups. If I set the KernelEx mode back to Windows 2000 it starts working again. I certainly can't use Opera without access to the settings menus! I tried the comp. mode on five machines and on one the mode doesn't stick. But I haven't found the reason yet. Does it sticks for you?
  12. Your new version works for ICH7. I tested it on two machines i945G and G31. OS Win98SE One Standard Graphics Adapter is too much. This must be deleted. After restart the yellow exclamation mark of the other Standard PCI Graphics Adapter is gone. After installation and the necessary reboots, DMA for the HDD and the CD drive must be enabled in the device manager. The long manual intel chipset driver installation is no longer required. It is a considerable simplification. Works on ME, too. I placed the files in the win9x ( cab files) folder of ME.
  13. After my first attempts I had made a sucessful third attempt for ICH7. I didn't report. I renamed xrayer's ICH7core.inf to machine.inf and used this file instead of yours. Works for ICH7: ICH7.zip
  14. Hallo frogman, to run the Flash Player 11.8 you must paste (alphabetically) [Gdi32.dll] GdiAlphaBlend= into your Kstub.ini. "nppdf32.dll" is the Adobe PDF plugin and has nothing to do with the Flash plugin.
  15. Hallo Dave-H, you are right, not everything works. There still lacks some menu items for me, eg.: View > Full Screen or File > Print Preview, but otherwise it looks pretty good. There remain only a few menu errors. The pop-up at the bottom right of frame when downloads completed appears here on 98SE and ME.
  16. Playing around with the core.ini: For proud ME and 98 enthusiasts / users. The following comp. mode changes the Opera browser header from Win2000 to your operation system. Your browser sends your operation system and not Win2000. A website recognizes your real OS. You run Opera 11 and 12 mostly without the issues you have with mode "Use default compatibility options (KernelEx is enabled)". usage: 1. Open the core.ini in the kernelEX folder 2. Add the item 11 to [ApiConfigurations] 3. Insert the remaining text below [WINMESP]... or [WIN98SESP]... 4. Save 5. Restart 6. Choose new comp. mode for Opera 11. ME user: 98 user:

  18. It doesn't work, if the name of the flash dll is NPSWF32.dll. The number in the name must match the version number - e.g.: NPSWF32_11_6_602_180.dll. Otherwise try this: Delete registry keys "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Macromedia\FlashPlayerPlugin" and "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Macromedia\FlashPlayerUpdate". And reinstall version 11.6. Versions 11.7/8 require the additional Kstub entry "[Gdi32.dll] GdiAlphaBlend".
  19. posts 1487/1488 Yes, tested with XP SP2 and Flash 11.1.
  20. Hallo TmEE, what browser you use and with which compatibility mode? If your browser runs with comp. mode 2K or XP the Flash dll name is NPSWF32_11_x_xxx_xxx.dll. If the browser runs with comp. mode default (KernelEX is enabled) the Flash dll name must be NPSWF32.dll. You also can paste the Flash dll in the plugin folder of your browser. First the browser looks into this folder. Did you add the winhttp.dll in your system folder? See Wiki. Kext is required to install Flash 11.3 - 11.8 (only msi). Versions 11.7 and 11.8 require the additional Kstub entry "[Gdi32.dll] GdiAlphaBlend".
  21. I got same JavaScript error with 3.7.x. QtWeb can't display Korean, Japanese or Chinese, and it shuts down when I try printing. I can see that the Pluinchecker and the JavaScript Tester confirm that Java Script works with 3.7. Maybe it works somehow delayed. Anyway it is an annoying message. I added QT Web to the Wiki. I will upload the screenshot and icon after maintenance.
  22. I removed the unknown device (PCI BUS) in the device manager and then I was able to install it with xrayer's driver. Afterwards all missing devices install fine using inf files machine2 and MDHDC.
  23. Hello LoneCrusader, the first attempt failed . "The file C:\WININSTO.400\machine2.inf couldn't be opened. The file is missing or corrupted....SU0410". Generally inf files with more than 53 KB don't work on Win ME. But I'm not so familar with Win98SE. My test system: Win98SE, chipset i945 / ICH7. For the second attempt I reduced machine.inf and machine2.inf to 48 KB and 51 KB (removed not necessary entries). Now the setup runs without an error. But the look into the Device Manager reveals that something went wrong. The devices of your machine.inf exist except the PCI BUS (unknown device). Also the manual install fails (errorcode 192). The devices of machine2.inf and MSHDC.inf are missing or aren't installed. Note: 98SE runs on the system, if I proceed conventionally and I manually install xrayer's driver.
  24. I will test it on ICH7, but probably not the next days.
