No, you probably won't make it. It is too hard and not documented at all. I'm working on logon, yes. However, it is locked for my Windows 98 Revolutions project, and won't be available separately.

Oh. This should be what RPLite memorized. Delete [HKLM\HARDWARE\DESCRIPTION\System\CentralProcessor] before packaging Windows JH.

Yeah, what's the point - if it doesn't work for anyone...

DirectX 4 does not exists. Version 4.09.00.0904 is DirectX 9c. google DirectX Happy Uninstall

Well, i have a computer at work which shows chkdsk _everytime_. Everytime it finds enormous amount of errors and fixes them - but finds a lot more next time. And with FAT32, all was ok... Well, virus can add itself into alternate file stream for notepad.exe, for example. It won't be visible in standard Windows Explorer, so it is almost no chance to remove it without using additional programs. Guess what? It eats all memory (edit: &CPU), perfoms disgusting sounds and didn't helped me even once at work, while freeware tools could. You sure have good imagination However, that wasn't once, was randomly and was terrible. Fixed somewhere in SP1... >> It is more than paranoid, it's pure FUD Time will tell. >>A week after ATI released newer drivers that are a lot faster and solved all of the problems. Well, can't speak for newer ATI drivers. I've tried newer NVIDIA drivers that were released today and perfomance still suck: GDI/overall responsibility is still 3-10 times slower. I guess all-new driver architecture is rotten, however, time will tell. >>Yeah but it still has plenty of problems that alternative browsers like Avant don't have because Firefox setup doesn't install the associations correctly. Well, does Avant makes it correctly? New 'you silly negro, select program for your internets' API is not used in current programs. Maybe only via XP compatibility mode... >>The new audio stack has its advantages, for example now it natively supports 5.1/7.1 The only things i've seen in forums about new audio stack is: jerky sound and completely unability to support more than 2.0 sound. >>That same thing could have happened on 9x so I don't understand what would the sense of that story be. Well, 98 is dead, and XP is in mainstream and still have critical bugs. They haven't offered a hotfix for my russian XP, and english can't be installed (even though it doesn't contain any localizable resources). And remember, all 'shutdown correctly' patches for 98 were released publicly. >>BTW as long as I remember that vulnerability is just a double free() so as long as I know it could just hang the system. No, it was a strcpy( asLocal.Buffer, asLocal.Buffer+4 ); and is exploitable. >>Even AmigaOS didn't have a decent memory protection so what? Well, your point was about 1992 OS/2. I'm speaking about 1999 Mac OS. So, 9x wasn't the last.

>>1) ntfs has more security checks Slowing access to files. And easy enough to bypass. >>has additional streams that can be used for example, like kaspersky does, to extremely speed up antivirus scanning More often used by viruses. Oh and have i said that kaspersky is crap? >>windows uses less ram to read ntfs drives Oh? NTFS wasn't included in 9x, because it eated too much RAM. FAT32 structures are never loaded into memory completely while MFT do. >>4) ntfs supports compression and encryption without needing extra software Which noone in right mind uses. >>5) ntfs has a rollback system that automatically undoes interrupted operations if for example your pc powers off while the ntfs is being written Oh, i remember XP SP0 rolled back my entire work day. Better read: http://www.cs.auckland.ac.nz/~pgut001/pubs/vista_cost.txt However, it is paranoid enough. There is no crashes in current Firefox versions which are solved by upgrading. Oh noes, i recalled: Mozilla had to release a Firefox 2.0.0.1 just to make it work with Vista... O RLY? Again, there were no Catalyst updates. And that means they've included buggy driver into RTM. I won't tell how ugly Vista is and how pathetic it comes perfomance-wise. I'll tell you funny story:Recently, i had to install XP on a modern Sony Vaio. After installing it and fully updating, it kept hanging on shutdown or standby. After several support calls and mass hysteria i've found a fix that must solve this problem. And guess what? It does not exist for Russian XP version (however, it was found 2 years ago), nor it was available for public. I had to hack file in Safe Mode just to install 'hotfix' for an 5-year-mature OS which hanged on shutdown. Oh, and didn't you heard a recent story where one simple MessageBox caused memory corruption, privilege elevation and BSOD on 2000-XP-Vista?(It is still not fixed) Mac OS < X didn't have a decent memory protection too.

Well, according to this: %USB\VID_03EE&PID_6901.DeviceDesc%=USBSTOR_CBI,USB\VID_03EE&PID_6901 USB\VID_03EE&PID_6901.DeviceDesc = "Mitsumi USB Floppy" seems no. Are you stating that all USB FDDs will fail?

This DLL is language neutral.

Here is D3DX9_32.DLL with patched header to run under 9x: http://rapidshare.com/files/8639801/d3dx9_32.zip.html besides header, it seems it does not contains evil checks aganist 9x. However, i can't check if it is really working, because there is no app which uses it now.

OMG! You've done it while i hasn't! Congratulations! However: 1) MOAR screenshots please. And i mean a lot MOAR. 2) I don't believe that Sourceforge hosts this! Dunno what MSFN'll say. 3) 2 CD - sure a lot. Can you please write a short list: what's included, what's removed, what's extremely different?

Sorry for crossposting. I've released new patch for IE6 which must fix "gray background in 32-bit png" issue for any pngfilt.dll version: http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?s=&amp...st&p=600188

I think NotepadEx is the best 'strict classic' Notepad replacement. If does include everything what you want, no toolbars, highlighting, text formatting and other weird things Notepad should never have. Plus it is fast and does not suffer from Richtext features [it IS based on Richedit, however, you should not notice it]. I can upload version with ~exact XP look [Lucida Console].

NO, it won't work. You can make it run on 9x, but it won't make difference, because problem in mshtml.

Well, i can patch latest version, although, it does not fixes "transparent png" issue, it only makes them have window instead of gray bgcolor.

I'll suggest: 1) Install VC into directory with short name. (ms build tools still have problems with them) 2) Add executable file directories to PATH.

180 MB That's definitely too much even if it includes ALL updates.

Well, Firefox must be internally Unicode, and thus must use unicode APIs. If they'll use ANSI strings and ANSI apis, there will be much more headaches.

Better say how'd you skinned windows and taskbar. edit: nah i see now... efx and taskbar wallpaper... omg

It should, but i can't reproduce it... Does your IE crash on this page? http://www.security.nnov.ru/files/mobb_018.html edit: omg 777 posts

It's not that terrible; it's just alpha.

Hi people! I think you should try Supercopier Download link: http://supercopier.sfxteam.org/modules/myd...cid=1&lid=8 It replaces Windows copy/move operations and thus should workaround this IE6 problem.

TERRIBLE and DISGUSTING. Even worse than first MSN Toolbar with tabbed browsing.

Okay, open browseui.dll with hex editor and search and replace values. This is for browseui.dll 5.5,6.0 and may be 5.0. For Lange Icons toolbar set. Replace hex values with ones you need. Toolbar size: (20->24) S: 6A14BE0501 R: 6A18BE0501 Go button size: (16->20) S: 6A10682201 R: 6A14682201 Go button size: (16->20) S: 6A10682301 R: 6A14682301 Toolbar size: (20->24) S: 6A1458A3 R: 6A1858A3 Go button size: (16->20) S: 8D048510 R: 8D048514

Here they are! http://rapidshare.de/files/34656937/Window...Forums.rar.html

I feel some deja vu. Several mothns ago i've downloaded 'Unofficial Windows 95 modern processors update' from some OSBA server. I had a lot of modified VXDs. If i'll find them on my PC i'll upload them somewhere.
