    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

    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.

    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?

    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.

    For a while now, I've been seeing this wifi AP broadcasting in my neighborhood: Type CH Signal BSSID Security SSID AP BSS 6 28% 00:d0:2d:53:1e:fc OFF NewThermostat_531EFC

    What OS and drivers are currently on it? We need a hardware device list.

    I think SystemTray and Shell Scrap DataHandler can go. If you only want to run SuperPi, install it as the shell app instead of Explorer. Then you should be able to get rid of userinit and RpcSs as well as Explorer itself. If you really, really want SuperPi to fly, find a version with a built-in 32-bit DOS extender, boot from floppy, and skip NT4 altogether.

    Google and Wikipedia are completely separate issues. Unfortunately, I don't understand what either of those issues is, only that they are unrelated. On my Win98se machine, Google works in both IE5 and FF2. Wikipedia doesn't work in IE5 and just once per session in FF2.

    Not cheesy at all -- I've been using and advocating (what-wifi-cards-are-compatible-with-98se, best-pci-wireless-card-for-9x) a router in client (or repeater) mode as a wifi adapter for Win9x for years. I've used several desktop routers that need AC power. A travel router that gets its power via USB is perfect for mobile use. If the NIC is also USB, a two-port USB hub might be used to create a one-USB-port complete solution -- but that might be cheesy!

    SSE support would be the biggest reason to upgrade to a PIII. And if the 500MHz PIII runs at 333 (or 366) MHz, there will be plenty of headroom to try software overclocking.

    Don't know about NT4.
  14. jumper
    Is the Pentium II you are replacing an overclocked Klamath (2.8v) or a Deschutes (2.0v)? Either way, a Celeron at the same speed is probably a downgrade. You must be hoping to overclock it once you get it working....

    After uninstalling IE6, restore the registry you saved before installing IE6.

    For Psapi, yes because the ReactOS version isn't compatible. For Uxtheme, no because the ReactOS version is compatible.

    I believe so. One of the machines may need to act as a server (plugged into the WAN port), however. >the same hub, which is connected to a MOCA adapter If you mean the MoCA adapter is plugged into the hub, try unplugging the MoCA adapter from the hub. This might be enough to fix the performance of your existing configuration.

    > My personal PC and work laptop are connected to the same hub Wired or wireless? If wired, a cross-over cable directly between the two should be fastest. If wireless, disconnect the hub from the rest of the network (yes, a switch or router might be needed) and all other devices from the hub. In short, create the fastest local area network you can that just includes these two machines. MoCA is tuned for multimedia, so stay off that network when you're looking for performance from non-multimedia applications.

    Was all this on a Win7x64 machine, or did you plug them into an x32, Win10, Linux, or OSX machine?

    What about those of us without SSE at all?

    I use Autoruns v8.31 on Win98SE. MDGx recommends:

    >D00748-001-002.exe which is Widcomm 5.1.0.2800 Did you mean 5.0.1.2800? Try the Anycom drivers which are newer. Also, when installers don't work (for whatever reason), it is sometimes possible to extract and transplant individual files. You probably want to avoid Device Firmaware Upgrades (dfu files) from other manufacturers, however. Another great discussion to read: How to Install Widcomm Drivers

    30600 "C:\PROGRA~1\MESSEN~1" "PROGRA~1" works for "Program Files" because the folder already exists so do the same with "MESSEN~1" / "Messenger": 1) Rename the folder "Messenger" 2) Check its properties to confirm the DOS filename is "MESSEN~1" 3) Use 30600 Win98se is not WinME; sometimes it needs a little bit of manual help to work around DOS limitations like 8.3 filenames. p.s. filenames in Wininit.ini are known to get truncated to 8.3

    According to http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/f237/widcomm-bluetooth-software-5-1-0-2800-keygen-363992/ on Jan-08-2007, the last version for Win9x was 5.1.0.2700. Wayback has the .1700 and .2100 Anycom drivers. http://www.wireless-driver.com/dell-wireless-355-bluetooth-module-windows-driver-software/ claims to have:

    Going back to your original post: it sounds like you had a power surge that killed the machine (and maybe the monitors, too).
