Thanks. I don't know what you mean by "play sound from Windows volume control" but it doesn't seem like Tommy's loading a new clip in another app. He should try using WinAmp or Quicktime or ffplay or something other than WMP/front-end for it. I assume Tommy's doing this on Win98se. On Win98se the volume control is just a slider with a mute button--no way to play/pause audio output much less load another clip....

Youtube isn't an option for me at the moment. Can you describe what's in the video?

I've had this problem mainly with ACDSee v2.1 (c.a. 1997) for over a decade. A couple of weeks ago another small app briefly gave me a whole bunch of these "ghosts" but I don't remember the details. I'd like to test with your PrintScreen app. Is this Gadwin PrintScreen and if so, what version?

The food would have to be in packaging that included an rfid tag for what it is and a pressure sensor to weigh how much is left. And also an air-quality sensor to determine when to throw it out! Another option would be to use something like ground-penetrating sonar to look into the fridge and cupboards and "see" what was available.... -
Audio output is usually double or even triple buffered by the playback app. The buffers can be in software or on the hardware. If you're not switching apps when you switch files, it's probably the app's fault (reusing existing buffers without reinitializing them). Try switching apps as well (play file 1 in app A, then file 2 in app B). If the problem remains, it's the drivers fault. Either way, try using DirectSound instead of waveout (or vice-versa) and different bit depths and other driver options. Changing output settings between files should also force the buffers to be cleared. You can also test with DXDIAG.exe.

Rar archives may not always get compacted when individual files are deleted from within them. Same for 7z and other formats.

@echo. > H:\SSD.bak\MyDocs\~@echo Y | del H:\SSD.bak\MyDocs > nul@copy S:\MyDocs\*.* H:\SSD.bak\MyDocsFirst line is optional. It ensures the second line doesn't report an error if the folder is already empty.The second line quietly empties the destination folder. The third line copies the files.

Maybe a batch file like: SSD2HDD.bat ;S: = SSD, H: = HDDcopy /y S:\MyDocs\*.* H:\SSD.bak\MyDocscopy /y S:\Drivers\*.* H:\SSD.bak\Driverscopy /y S:\Windows\*.* H:\SSD.bak\WindowsUse Xcopy to copy subfolders.

Wireless N - cheesy workaround with USB-powered travel-router in Clien
jumper replied to ragnargd's topic in Windows 9x/ME
On October 6, I investigated farfigs11's link and came to the same conclusion that MrMateczko vocalized the next day. However, I also googled "rt28609x.sys" and found AWNE766_V1100.zip at download3k.com. It does indeed contain rt2860.inf and rt28609x.sys in the RT2860_Drivers\WIN9X\ subdirectory. Just now I googled "AWNE766 zip" and found what appear to be the following versions: * 1100 * 1150 * 1200 * 1400 * 1430 (XP) * 2040 * 2330 (Vista) * EeePC901, Eee PC 1000H and references to EeePC1004DN, 701, 900, and B202. AW = Asus AzureWave Azurewave AW-NE766 is also for the RT2700E and RT2790. This might be a direct link to the v1100 files, but the ftp server didn't respond for me. -
If "Print as Image" didn't work in previous versions, then there is no longer a way to print until we debug it.The 3.1 installer uses SSE multi-byte NOP's (without testing for it), so I can't do much there until I update fineSSE or (re)install 98se on a better box. 3.1 portable does an SSE "xorps %xmm0,%xmm0", so is also buggy and beyond my testing reach at the moment. ImportPatcher gives it a clean bill of health, however.

Should I upgrade to Windows ME from 98 SE on a pentium 1?
jumper replied to TechKitten 360+'s topic in Windows 9x/ME
Socket 5 or 7? Either way you should be able to do a cheap cpu upgrade. -
I just googled "epub sample file" and found a wealth of info that anyone researching this topic (or just following this thread) might be interest in.

It doesn't officially support Win10, but it definitely isn't obsolete. Win10 must surely have a compatibility mode for Win8 apps....

Best operating system choice for a 32mb laptop?
jumper replied to FantasyAcquiesce's topic in Windows 9x/ME
Win98 regains much speed if one disables Active Desktop and sets [386Enh] ConservativeSwapfileUsage=1 in System.ini. Also set accdate=c- in Config.sys for faster boot. IE5 can be (completely?) removed if you don't need it. Every version of Windows is larger and slower than the previous version. I recommend using the earliest that will run the applications you want to run. If you only plan to run DOS games/apps, only install DOS. If you also want Solitaire and Minesweeper, Win3.1 will boot the fastest and do the job. -
Last Versions of Software for Windows 98SE
jumper replied to galahs's topic in Pinned Topics regarding 9x/ME
Maybe as a safe host for scanning external or slaved drives? Also shared drives in a multi-boot system.... Good to know NAV 2002 is still working! -
I remember using IPX for easy networking via Direct Cable Connect and/or ethernet crossover cables in the golden days of yesteryear. Does Win7 not support IPX or have Network Neighborhood? If you have webmail access on both systems: 1) Zip the files you want to transfer and attach them to a draft email and save it (to the cloud) 2) Load the draft on the target system and save the attachment(s) 3) Delete the draft or keep it as backup

Windows NT 4.0: Can't access Google homepage under IE6!
jumper replied to ppgrainbow's topic in Windows 2000/2003/NT4
If we can identify which DLL is providing the SSL3 support, we might be able to downgrade it with the one from IE5.5. Even better might be to upgrade it with an IE7 or 8 file that supports TLS.- 13 replies

I was unable to identify your system from the info provided, but I also googled: Mazatrol matrix nexus "compact flash" The Matrix control is said to have "replaced the floppy-disk with the more reliable USB drive." Seven ways to transfer files are itemized. The main photo shows a SanDisk 4.0GB CompactFlash card. Those didn't exist in the Win95 era. The webpage is copyright 2009. Windows 95 and FAT32 may not mix. Try a sub-2GB CF card (or repartition the 4GB card down to 2GB) and partition as FAT16. Do you have serial and network ports? You could remove the HDD and put it into another system to clone or copy files from it. How big is the HDD and how many megabytes of files are we talking about copying?

Changed drive from NTFS to FAT32, DOS and win-98 doesn't boot
jumper replied to Nomen's topic in Windows 9x/ME
With the drive disconnected, get into Setup and make sure BIOS is not auto-detecting the ATA modes of each drive every boot. Set your other drive(s) to User/manual settings. Then reconnect the new drive and see if you can get back into setup. Try auto-detecting the drive. If it hangs, reboot and set the parameters manually. I don't think they have to be correct at this time, just valid, so pick small numbers. Hopefully upon reboot you will be able to get to a DOS prompt. Then you can use other tools such as MHDD to reset the drive. -

"A while" equals seven weeks. First saw it on August 17 and saved a snapshot instead of posting immediately. -
