Archived localization begins with: ftp://ftp.rarlab.com/rar/wrar393nl.exe Non localized version 3.93: ftp://ftp.rarlab.com/rar/wrar393.exe Non localized version 3.8: ftp://ftp.rarlab.com/rar/wrar380.exe Perhaps someone can compare the language resources of the first two and apply the differences to the third to create an unofficial wrar380nl.exe. V 3.80 is also the last for Win98, but WinME might run up through 4.01. Perhaps v3.93 or later can be hexed to run on Win9x. Edit: v3.93 seems to be working well in Win98se without any help from KernelEx. DW had no complaints, not even a warning. It still needs to be tested in Win95.

Try hexing GetDateFormatEx to GetDateFormatW. If it isn't called in a loop and the first parameter is a predefined one, this substitution might work just as intended. (Four bytes of stack will be leaked on each call, but should be recovered when the calling function exits.)

External Wifi 6 modems (except USB) need no drivers, internal adapters do. What interface are you looking for?

I have three Compaqs that are currently awaiting upgrading to Windows 98se: HP Compaq dc5750 Compaq Presario SR1510NX Compaq Presario SR1000V

Open Shell32.dll in an Exports viewer such as Dependency Walker that shows API addresses. Sort by address and locate SHCreateItemFromParsingName. If it shares an address or is followed by another API within a few bytes, it is a stub (not fully implemented).

Add a valid forwarding definition to each line. Don't use XP extenders (KernelXP.dll, ntext.dl) in 9x; use KernelEx instead if ImportPatcher isn't sufficient.

Yes, it is possible for some apps. Please be more specific.

The memory model for the 16-bit app is either: Small: 64KB for all code and data in one segment, Medium: 64KB for code + 64KB for all data (two segments), Large: 64KB for code + multiple 64KB data segments. If it used the Large model, each file could be loaded into its own 64KB segment and that would also be the file size limit. I suspect it is using one of the other models with ~14KB of common data or data + code, thus limiting each database to ~50KB. If you write a tool to modify the files, the limit will still be the same.

Another thought: if the HDD (or a partition on it) is "removable" perhaps it is being "mounted" and WMP or Explorer is doing a media scan/search via the sound service.

+1 to each of your last posts for continuing this interesting analysis. Thanks!

@Goodmaneuver: Disable KernelEx extensions on DDHELP.EXE (v.4.09.00.0900) for all 4.5.x versions.

After reviewing both threads, it appears the high scores (or similar) database for your DOS game has filled up. Data entries are added by appending them to the end of file #2. Entries in file #2 are "deleted" by simply not referencing them from the index file #1. File #2 was never expected to grow through decades of use to anywhere near 50KB. A design flaw has limited that growth to 50991 bytes preventing any more additions or deletions. My only question is the name of the DOS game. Please attach a directory listing along with full copies of the two database files so jaclaz, others, and/or I can verify your analysis.

"return "DIRECT";" is intriguing. Use of function FindProxyForURL might be enough to bypass the HOSTS file. Try return "DIRECT"; //"PROXY 51.38.71.101:8080"; If that works, then bypass HOSTS but use no proxies for best performance: function FindProxyForURL(url, host) { return "DIRECT"; }

You download Intel's Windows 7 drivers and: a) start modding, or b) install them on Windows 7 and apply WinClient5270's Make Windows 7 look like Vista transformation pack.

Auto-defrag?

Perhaps WPA2 Enterprise itself disallows repeaters as a means of greater security. Instead of a repeater, try cabling two routers together. Configure one as a client and one as an AP. You might need a switch or cross-over cable between them. Hopefully someone with more LAN experience than me can add some additional details.

So no quick hints. Did you find a solution? You may need to use an older browser that supports DTA when original timestamps are needed. RetroZilla maybe?

DbgPrint messages are not errors. They are debugging messages. If you want to hide them, don't use Kexbases.22 (or modify Core.ini).

Apps that can easily be recompiled should already work. I believe blackwingcat has already added support for all the differences made by newer versions of Visual Studio. This means the app itself makes calls that need to be back-ported -- sometimes simple, usually not.

That is the original version of PrintDlgW from KernelEx 4.5.2 that forwards to Unicows.dll and that didn't work years ago, sparking much discussion and a search for a working solution! What mode do you have Unicows.dll set to and what versions of kex files and extras are you using?

The switch under the keycap might have been damaged when the keycap got knocked off. Do you have a spare keyboard to try?

DX11? Please post the contents of the Kexstubs.ini file you are using.

DbgPrint is just the messenger--it displays a simple MessageBox that has nothing to do with files or the registry. The error occurs whether or not DbgPrint displays it. // // MessageId: E_FAIL // // MessageText: // // Unspecified error // #define E_FAIL _HRESULT_TYPEDEF_(0x80004005L) Enable logging on Wiashext.dll and report the last lines from the log at the time the error box is displayed. Same with RegSvr32.exe. You can also try disabling KernelEx on these two files.
