Driver Packs for Windows 95,98/98SE,ME

1) No, its not really needed. You just need to limit it with HimemX or similar. There are even few games which have problem to start with lots of mem. 2) No.. 3) If you need something really complex about Dos gaming and modern HW and settings and multibranched configs i wrote this: https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?f=61&t=61044 there are download links, recommended HW etc.. -
Cleanest way how to change Windows system partition letter?
ruthan replied to ruthan's topic in Windows XP
I had similar problems, it was often somehow fixable, but i dont remember details, maybe link to users folder is somewhere hardcoded.. Paragon P2P adjust sometimes, fixed it sometimes not. There are also other PC to PC migration tools which are worth to try and the from their definition should keep different drive letters in mind.. Laplink Software PCmover Professional Pcmover exp EaseUS Pctrans They are different modes, something only to get some programs settings from existing installation.. and port them to new one - its better than nothing and incomplete.. but there are also full installation migration options.. and here really not matters if target is again same pc or not. I used at least one of them for complete HW exchange and it worked and i dont remember details.. If you have quick storage and disk image, its worth to try, because whole main business feature of these should in this feature, for other tools this is only some side feature at the best. Or some lowlevel hacking. -

Cleanest way how to change Windows system partition letter?
ruthan replied to ruthan's topic in Windows XP
I at least mastered way how to install even new installation as C, on multiboot system with multiple Win partition, its working even with super old machines (Super socket 7) - Minitool Partition manager 4.2 boot cd.. You only need, use partition hide feature on other partitions before installation and change active disk partition to target one for a moment.. and after installation unhide hidden partitions.. and after that you need add other boot entries too boot.ini on XP partition.. or install XP bootloader on other desired "main" partition. Minitool is also capable to change system partition driver leter for "main" no c partition on the fly, which Windows drive manager refusing to do. Before i used for this Paragon HDD tools, but Minitool seems to be more user friendly and compatible. -
Well, not bad, you will still need to patch io.sys for working Safe mode with 512+ RAM. Otherwise you can got up to X58,X79 with working Dos (Win98 one and pure DOS) sounds, because these board are last with DMA sound magic in chipset needed for DOS.. Otherwise there is not limit for Win98 sound only. https://www.dropbox.com/s/ulaptg9pd7pzb9q/2017-08-20 03.40.07-5960X-Win98.jpg?dl=0

Thanks, i know but they are not supported on Hackingtosh side, if nothing changed in last months.. I google about my my file access denied problem, it could sing of some spyware and Malware Bytes should help, i will try it later. I also could buy very small usb bluetooth dongle, but i would like to avoid it.

In specs i saw bluetooth 4.0, i afaik Bluetooth 5 is mainly about power management, so not big deal.. and even Bluetooth 3 would be enough for some remove gaming devices, speakers etc. Otherwise i found some threads with same access denied problem, as i have, but not clear solution, at least not for me, i had same problem with Nvidia drivers, but never saw this problem on other machines. Im local admin, i dont set any special policies, but notebook was used in some corporate environment, so some evil script could be executed as part some installer etc. Im using Avira, but im using it on other computers too and never saw this error, when i stopped it for while, no change. https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-hardware/access-denied-when-i-try-to-update-a-driver-in/9cb46cac-6723-450b-82df-b185a00a97eb?auth=1&page=2 https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/ce875c79-1409-4622-bdbc-d5a192ee9c05/access-denied-installing-drivers-as-admin?forum=w7itprosecurity

About FN keys i have found some old Dell Fuction key util from 2013 and its working. Now i exchanged Wifi adapter for Dell DW1560 which is known to be working with MacOS, its Wifi ac + Bluetooth combo. IDs and names: Description: BCM20702A0 USB\VID_0A5C&PID_216F&REV_0112 In Linux is named BCM4352 In Windows 10 it worked out of box, in Linux i had problem, because its Broadcom Linux from some reasons have not Broadcom devices working out of box, in kernel, there is in Mint 20, some Device manager, but it not worker, so i had to same some terminal porn.. it need some kernel dkms modul and kernel headers after broadcom drivers could be successfully installed.. but doesnt matter here. Bluetooth in Linux is working too. I have problem with Windows 7, wifi is working fine - with generic Broacom driver.. but bluetooth dont. I tried, automatic driver searching - nothing, few Dell drivers, few HP drivers, few Lenovo drivers. SDI tool too - 5 of them. Problem with Dell drivers is that they are for whole Laptop, but not for some branded Dell -> Broadcom Wifi adapters and it was used in other models than i have. Device is found, but driver installation is problem, when i try to install driver by hand, i usually getting: Access denied error message, which im not familiar with what it exactly means? Has someone proven Windows 7 driver for this device? Because of gaming and i would like to use Bluetooth too..

After PAE fix, which is already done, see.. https://www.win-raid.com/t4035f45-Windows-XP-Bit-and-Server-Bit-on-Modern-Hardware.html but, there is other problem that are not working drivers, which are not ready for it.. so probably some universal PAE fix cant exist and you need fixing per driver, if you unlucky to enough to have device which are has such drivers (there are lots of them)

I made proper card name working: - a searched through Total Commander all, directory where are *inf files, because 2060 string, wasnt file, which is youtube tutorial using - nvaci.inf i found this string in more classic and i would say main inf file - nv_dispi.inf, i have found that Geforce 2060 has this device id: NVIDIA_DEV.1E89 = "NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060" So i replaced all occurance of line where is 1E89 with my HardwareIDs to make lines like these, by same way as tutorial is doing for other inf file and first lines in block: %NVIDIA_DEV.1E89% = Section001, PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_1F11&SUBSYS_08EA1028&REV_A1 Save the file and again run extracted Nvidia installer -setup.exe , which is after this mode running as usually. How to again access to extracted installer is in youtube video, you need very advanced hacking tactic - run installer and better you start installation, it will report that card is unsupported and delete files.. just copy extracted files aside and after that close installer. Maybe is simply possible extract Nvidia - exe by 7zip.. i used it to access to original inf files after mod.. because i needed modified other file and replaced previos edit with original file, so multiple items in Clipboard SW is also handy.. https://www.dropbox.com/s/3dbtrgtxc1rculi/Win7-Geforce2060workingProof.png?dl=0

Ok, i think that we won I was dare as usually and this time it worked.. I tried couple of games, all is working as expected, in fullscreen etc. With MSI after burner i can see, that i have 2 video cards, and 1st one is used and that lots of VRAM is used - and Intel HD has max 2 GB or less and i have used much more and my GPU usage is almost 100% and second card with less memory, has minimal usage = Intel HD. Even Quake II modded for Raytracing is working fine, which i was unsure if even available on Windows 7 its only running on RTX Nvidia HW, for sure. Only minor problem was with Unreal Tournament III steam version, 13 years old game, when i runs in fullscreen, it has some strange red lines everywhere on screen, but i had same problem with it with Intel HD.. so it probably not related to Nvidia, in Window it run fine.. and even i turn on vsynch in videomenu it runs now fine even in full screen. I quess that this game, probably has some issue with my 144 Hz screen, which is because of Dell probably not G-Synch, what is shame.. but had to make some compromised when i selected this HW.. so 144 Hz screen is still better than 60, but worse than 144 Hz + G-synch, if im not wrong G-synch.. in comparision with Freesynch is supported even on Windows 7. No i will only fix proper GPU name in device manager.. and if i will in good to mess with Geforce experience - Shadowplay is nice, but its not only one GPU accelerated video recording software and driver update will not work anyway and im not big user its automated game videosettings adviser.. or Nvidia shield streaming or VR. I have high hope in Nvidia drivers that with set desktop Nvidia 2060, it not try desktop clock and fry my card, because my card is running much faster than would be running Geforce 840M, but i does that for this was invented Dells next business day repair Some proof and funny gpu names: https://www.dropbox.com/s/qt1xgfrwvpjhxr2/Geforce840M-akaGeforce2060.png?dl=0

I used youtube video inf hack above and i now is driver install working no more bitching about not compatible OS or adapter.. It tried to uninstall wufuk, ale it doesnt matters. After restart, i see that Nvidia video card has driver and its working, at least on ! mark.. Because video, is simply pointing to edit 1 line in inf file, which is probably for Geforce 840M.. i see my card named as Geforce 840M. When i run Unigine Heaven, i see in GPU info correct information - Geforce 2060 and im getting lots of FPS, it seems that Nvidia card is really running, its running in Window. When i run dxdiag, i see only Intel - i really dunno how Optimus should behate, if i there should be 2 cards.. Because card switching could be problem.. It need some testing and editation, right line in inf for right name.. BTW i wonder are these names cutomizable? I always wanted to use my custom names for devices in device manager? Lets say than Geforce 2060 hacked laptop RuThaNs GPU would be nice.. Im will continue to test, guess that MSI After burner etc, will report right used card.. i some games have card info, fps boot should be big boots. I also wonder about Nvidia panel - if it will work, there you can select card used for application.. I will inform you about problem. I used just last Win 7 64 bit driver for desktop 2060 from web.. for now its promising.

Hmm, i think that you can use unsigned drivers without testing mode, you just need to enable it in OS, is just always select continue when i get warning that driver is unsigned . maybe bcdedit +testsinging is doing same thing, i dunno. Hmm, mobile cpu without HD, i had to check that Intel made something like that.. I need testing, have Intel HD beside Nvidia GPU, could be advantage, or disadvantage. If have somewhere driver, which somehow worked, it would be nice to share it and steps to mod it. After modification, did you used installer or you installed driver through inf file?

1F1 -Its same id as mine. Do you have some online threads with info about you tries and progress to check? Booted is test mode.. I never heards about it, do you mean Safe mode? Its known that i safe mode is not good for games, i dont even know that 3D acceleration is enabled here, its big progress from XP or Vista.. My laptop is booting fine in normal mode, i can play all games with Intel HD 630, but its slow.. i paid lots of money for Geforce, so i want to use it.. Had you installed Intel HD 630 driver too? Or you had just Standard VGA driver for it? Because whole Optimus stuff this could be problem.. and even with working desktop driver, it could be problem, but maybe just disable Intel HD fix this issues, if im not wrong even desktop driver package has some Optimus files inside too. For now all devices except these are working: - Geforce i have not working NVIDIA USB type-c controller - its probably mainly for VR stuff and some phone connection, but Canonkong made some driver for it, i only have problem to find it.. - Fingerprint reader integrated in power button - USB\VID_27C6&PID_530C&REV_0100 this ID, has no vendor if etc, so its hard to find any info or driver for it. Hwinfo is saying this: Goodix fingerprint - There is some other unknow Nvidia device - PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_1ADB&SUBSYS_00001028&REV_A1 - what is other part of Nvidia USB stuff.

First what i tried, so to install desktop cards drivers, but installed failed not supported card found. When i trying to force install from inf files, im getting strange message, that operating system is not supported: https://www.dropbox.com/s/bl8ouyw1btmgh6t/ThisVersionOfWindows.png?dl=0 But im quite sure that im running on Windows 7 64bit SP1 and i double checked that driver which im trying to use is for Win7 64bit too. I dunno if that is some missleading Nvidia error in inf files, or something my OS, but i installed lots of Windows 7 drivers in last days fine.. Maybe,maybe wufuc unsupported mesage disable can mess with it, but i doubt it. Maybe its Nvidia new way how to disable user install something from *.inf files. Anyway here are my inf files: https://www.dropbox.com/s/lddsqb5zazja3nd/Infs.7z?dl=0 I found video how to simply add some ids to installer here, but im not sure if will fix unsupported OS message, or i probably have to fix it before...: I doubt that i would be that easy, as change ids, but who knows.. I have tried all 10 drivers for Geforce 2060 or geforce 2060 Super its always the same, this message during forced drivers install and it take a while, if would guess that check Windows version would be first step during driver installation. My dev id is: DEV_1F11 I found it mentioned only in 1 minor inf file, not in nv_displ etc.

Intel HD 630 solved: // tested There seems to be solution for Intel and Nvidia USB 3 too.. // Untested so far - Update: Rioline - Intel USB3 drivers tested - working fine.. https://www.win-raid.com/t4883f52-Solution-Win-drivers-for-USB-Controllers-of-new-Intel-chipset-systems-1.html So only real problem is with Nvidia.. Afaik nobody made so far big mods with Nvidia display drivers, they apparently are too complex..
-
For now: Devices without drivers: - graphics cards.. Network Controller - Wifi - it would need exchange.. - dead end, its not problem PCI Simple Communications Controller - this would be Managed Engine, i need some driver.. PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_A360&SUBSYS_08EA1028&REV_10 Universal Serial Bus (USB controller) - PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_A36D&SUBSYS_08EA1028&REV_10 But i alrady have some Intel USB controller detected.. maybe its root hub it something. Universal Serial (USB) Controller - if is SDI tool right it is some nvidia usb type c connection PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_1ADA&SUBSYS_00001028&REV_A1 I also have to try again boot, in not legacy boot mode, but i guess that i will again get same freeze as before that, there is something missing in EFI inicialization for Windows 7..

Lots of things happening now.. Here is just for complete story - Windows 7 boot log from virtual machine to show good boot log: https://www.dropbox.com/s/2b87k15w2is9ix7/ntbtlogFromVIrtualMachineBootOk.txt?dl=0 I found magic settings in bios and finally booted into Windows 7: Its in Advanced Boot Option, Enable Legacy Option ROMS.. when i turn it on, i get some message that this is not supported on this Hardware and Windows 10 will not work.. https://www.dropbox.com/s/dfz4y4prsmcjlnb/2020-09-08 23.56.03-NotebookInsides.jpg?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/8d6hhigmfiu3iip/2020-12-02 00.30.10-LegacySettings.jpg?dl=0 I dunno if this Warning is only some support Dell thing, or some hard show stopper problem. I there is some waring about Windows 10, but i booted fine to Win10 through Grub2 a all seems fine.. Only thing which is now not working if Linux Mint - boot its storting from Grub2, but im getting black screen.. This is maybe because Linux was installed in EFI mode, but im not sure how to fix.. maybe only through Grub2 reinstall, update etc.. It need some time. BIos has not classic boot profiles options, to make some for Win7 some for more more OSes.. there is only someting cooled Custom user setting, when i trying to safe profile, but i dunno how to inicialize this, during boot.. Windows 7 boot device is even it this legacy mode Standart NVME, what is nice. I made Killer E2500 LAN working with some Killer universal installer which i found on the inter that is nice. Otherwise lots of unknow devices, im trying quick way to make some install through SDI tool, lets hope that it will reboot. Main problem for Win7 seems to be videocards: - I somewhere lost that Intel HD 630 driver, which i used in the past and worked. and there is main obstacled on Nvidia side.. because Geforce 20xx is supported on Windows 7, but only for desktop cards, even if select laptop, there is only WIndows 10 driver for 20xx cards.. So it would need some workaround, patched driver, or its dead end and only Intel HD will work, which is good for work, but add for gaming.. Disabler of that stupid unsupported Hardware is named wufuc and could be find on Github.
