Hi, I can't get these 4 devices working on windows 8.1 and as a consequence the Intel graphics display adapter is not present on device manager and the same for the Touchpad: ACPI\VEN_INT&DEV_3453 Intel(R) Serial IO GPIO Host Controller - INT3453 ACPI\INT3453\1 ACPI\INT3453\2 ACPI\INT3453\3 ACPI\INT3453\4 This is a new laptop model Lenovo 330-15IGM with default BIOS, you can see BIOS update available on Lenovo's site but I don't want to install it right now because they don't give the option to come back to the previous BIOS version after the installation as I read. All drivers and Bios updates are here: https://pcsupport.lenovo.com/es/en/products/laptops-and-netbooks/300-series/330-15igm/downloads Direct link to the driver: https://pcsupport.lenovo.com/es/en/products/LAPTOPS-AND-NETBOOKS/300-SERIES/330-15IGM/downloads/DS503390 https://download.lenovo.com/consumer/mobiles/a8l105af.exe I tried modifying the w10 inf file to install it on windows 8.1 but I get a yellow mark and this message in the device > properties: Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39) {Unable to Load Device Driver} %hs device driver could not be loaded. Error Status was 0x%x I'm currently comparing my INF with two more inf files which are for these hardware ids: %iaLPSS2_GPIO2.DeviceDesc_0%=iaLPSS2_GPIO2_Device, ACPI\INT344B %iaLPSS2_GPIO2.DeviceDesc_1%=iaLPSS2_GPIO2_Device, ACPI\INT345D %iaLPSS2_GPIO2.DeviceDesc_2%=iaLPSS2_GPIO2_Device, ACPI\INT3451 and %iaLPSS2_GPIO2.DeviceDesc_0%=iaLPSS2_GPIO2_Device, ACPI\INT344B %iaLPSS2_GPIO2.DeviceDesc_1%=iaLPSS2_GPIO2_Device, ACPI\INT345D DriverVer=05/04/2015,30.61.1519.07 CatalogFile=iaLPSS2_GPIO2_SKL.cat This one is compatible with w8+, all the INF is the same as the one I have installed & worked in w10 except for the hardware device ids DriverVer=06/23/2017,30.100.1725.1 CatalogFile=iaLPSS2_GPIO2_SKL.cat This other one is only compatible with w10 I'm gonna try with the FeatureScore you posted (after reading about it in the documentation of MS site) looking at this example (https://github.com/bq/web2board/blob/master/pkg/win32/drivers/slabvcp.inf) different driver but an example of how to use the directive in a INF file. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/install/inf-featurescore-directive It's very important for me to use W8.1 (it's not the perfection of it's brother w8.0 which, as experimented users know it's the best MS OS because it has WDDM 1.2 ) -Consider: different inf filename but the content is almost the same!- Content of the w7+ INF file: iaLPSS2_GPIO2_SKL 05/04/2015,30.61.1519.07 ;/*++ ;

Hi, I have a baytrail T tablet with Z3735D cpu and I can t get these three drivers working under windows 8.0: 2 devices are: UART Controller ACPI\80860F0A ACPI\VEN_8086&DEV_0F0A&REV_0006 ACPI\80860F0A another device: BMA2x2 (BMA250E BMA255 BMA222E BMA280) Accelerometer ACPI\VEN_BMA&DEV_250E ACPI\BMA250E Most drivers I installed are from previous w8.1 installation and are working correctly but I can't get these working. for the UART I get This device cannot start. (Code 10) and The driver for this device might be corrupted, or your system may be running low on memory or other resources. (Code 3) and for the Bma2x2 I get This device cannot start. (Code 10) as a consequence windows 8.0 doesnt shutdown correctly.. I think..

Is it possible to inject or use the windows 8.1 Kernel Mode driver framework ( Wdf01000.sys and Wdfres.dll ) on Windows 8.0 ? http://www.advanceditsolutions.net/the-driver-for-this-device-might-be-corrupted-or-your-system-may-be-running-low-on-memory-or-other-resources-code-3/ info only: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2685811 version history: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/ff544309(v=vs.85).aspx or this comment can be a fix ? http://www.cypress.com/comment/269091#comment-269091 SPB Framework Extension: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/hh706278(v=vs.85).aspx About KMDF files: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/hh706278(v=vs.85).aspx(SpbCx.sys and MyI2CBusDriver.sys) How can I replace a system file without getting a BSOD, It's the Windows File Protection involved ? Finally, what I need is the missing Version 2 of the Serial Framework Extension (SerCx2.sys) in W8.0 https://msdn.microsoft.com/es-es/library/hh439599(v=vs.85).aspx https://msdn.microsoft.com/es-es/library/jj241971(v=vs.85).aspx https://msdn.microsoft.com/es-es/library/dn265309(v=vs.85).aspx Maybe creating a kernel driver service with different name ( Windows Service Manager (SrvMan) ) using w8.1 SerCx and modifying the dependencies .INF file will do the trick ?

So the computer never shutdown and USB devices remain on. I tried replacing some files from w8.1 system32 and I get a Bsod 0x0000098 because of the Windows File Protection during boot (or kernel-level protection) which check system files integrity and version. Also tried adding new windows Services with different name and editing .inf file to link to the new service but nothing happens.. How can I get these devices recognized and working or, at least, shutdown the tablet ? maybe blackwingcat has the answer ?

Hello, I installed Windows 2000 SP4 + Update Rollup 1 + Update Rollup 2 + Windows2000-UURollup-v10d-x86-ENU.exe (English) and when I tried to run Iron Browser with Application Compatibility Launcher I get this error: The procedure entry point IsProcessInJob could not be located in the dynamic link library KERNEL32.dll However I installed everything I needed to run it as you can see here in your web: http://www.windows2000.tk/programs/index.html hehe Name / Version - Requirements SRWare Iron - Unofficial Updates Rollup what can I do to get it working? thanks

I've been testing with Windows themes and when I applied High Contrast theme, then I couldn't refresh the customization window any more and I couldn't load more themes. Finally I've solved changing to the explorer of windows 8. Can you fix it in next version? thanks! this application is really great

sorry i think I was confused when read this..

Hi Tihiy, Can you try the explorer.exe from windows pe 4.0 (based on W8) in W8 RTM? It don't contains metro ui..

as I said, I had the GRUB of debian installed, and thinking about the "Fast Startup" Windows 8/S2012 .. I tried to reinstall the boot manager of Windows 8/S2012. and now my pc shutdown correctly .. I don't understand why

I think I can't shutdown Windows Server 2012 workstation after I applied this update: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/b8/archive/2012/10/09/updating-windows-8-for-general-availability.aspx http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2756872 I'have Windows 7 explorer for Windows 8 installed before install this updated is a problem with your program? Edit: I re enable the original explorer.exe and I can't shutdown the computer, when I tried it windows only close the current user session the only I did today is install debian in a partition and install this update in windows. what could be? I can only shutdown the computer running this: "shutdown -s -t 01"

Yes, I think I solved disabling Windows defender. thanks man

Hi Blackwingcat, can your wrapper be used with windowsxp SP0?

SOLVED!!!! the problem was that I disabled the service "TCP / IP NetBIOS Helper Service" when I installed Microsoft Server Converter in Windows 2012:

I'm using w2012 converted to a workstation with this tool: http://www.win2008workstation.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=54&t=2108 and when I try to acces to a shared folder in a windows 2003 machine, I can't and however with w8 I can I don't disable any service in the Windows 2012 server... and I have all activated in Advanced Sharing settings.. I don't know what else can be ?

Hi Tihiy, Since I installed "Windows 7 explorer for Windows 8", the "Screen Sharing" function of Skype conversation does not work. Someone else has the same problem? Edit: and when I hung up the call, the conversation window with that person gone mad

Can I remove the 1 Gb of RAM requirement from Windows 8 installation using Windows ToolKit?

Yes, I have the same problem as the one mentioned in the link, but can not find solution or forums with people the same thing happen to him. Have you heard of this on any other link?

first of all, thank blackwingcat, I've been reading a lot about all of your work, in your blog, etc. and everything about W2K and I think I must congratulate you for the moment I have not tried your kernel extension, but I'll try, but exists a lot of information about XP api ported to 2k and I haven't found a good guide explaining what updates I can install and what not and an order to install. Another thing confused is about another API for Windows 2000 XP made ​​by .. OldBoy2k?? in oldcigaret.. which is better? and exists other here: http://www7.atwiki.jp/win2000/pages/17.html ? am I right? on the other hand: I would like to know why you prefer to use your Windows 2000 machines instead of Windows XP? I guess the answer to my question related anger performance windows, so I want to ask if you have used MicroXP? And finally I would like to know if with Windows2000 I can get more FPS in games than in XP? What advantage is there in using windows 2000? I am a computer addict user since Windows 3.1, I understand that since Windows 2000 (or maybe 9x) the computer's response time has probably changed by the large amount of wasted resources or lack of optimization lot of thanks!

The file explorer windows 8 rtm slows / crashes / freezes when I go into folders (eg Downloads) in which there are many files with different extensions. It may be the subject of desktop 2d acceleration? because Microsoft said that Windows 8 hardware accelerated wanted everything. I tried the Windows 7 explorer (by Tihiy) but have not seen improvements in this regard .. someone else happens? I also want to say that I have ATI Mobility HD 3430 and still no official drivers for AMD Mobility HD series 2x 3x windows 8 rtm Any solution? thanks!!
