Damnation

@UsefulAGKHelper Setup an XP VM and run it from in there, that's how I do it.

Is this the same issue that the XP HAL timer patch addresses?

@CommanderKeen Try XP Integral Edition. That should work.

It's odd that USB 3.0 isn't working, it should. Graphics wise you'll be limited to 2D with the generic VBEMP driver, unless you've got a PCI-E slot.

@Dietmar There is one under releases - https://github.com/FlyGoat/csmwrap/releases/tag/1.0.0

@Dietmar @reboot12 @Mov AX, 0xDEAD I discovered this today. https://github.com/FlyGoat/csmwrap Hopefully this means we can boot XP x86 on UEFI class 3 systems now.

@Dietmar Can you check if HWINFO32 spits out garbage BIOS data with the latest acpi.sys 7777? It might be just a windows 2000 specific issue, but would like to verify.

@Dibya This is the latest one I have, might be out of date though. https://easyupload.io/tlms4s

@Comos That registry fix applies to XP too.

@Tecchie Make sure to use the x64 acpi.sys, the x86 acpi.sys won't work on XP x64.

@Dietmar From what I've found on Gigabytes website. https://www.gigabyte.com/WebPage/917/amd600-bios.html On the Favorites (F11) page. AMD at least still has CSM. (It might only apply to 600 series and not 800 series chipsets though) edit: https://www.gigabyte.com/WebPage/1081/amd800-bios.html All good, CSM support still there on the Main Menu page.

@Dietmar Have you tried running XP on Arrow Lake?

Unless someone makes a kernelex for XP, it won't work.

@Dietmar @reboot12 Have either of you given quibble a go to see if it can boot XP32 in UEFI64? https://github.com/maharmstone/quibble
