Installing Windows 2000 on a Thinkpad R60
FantasyAcquiesce replied to FantasyAcquiesce's topic in Windows 2000/2003/NT4
Looking back at the whole thing, my problem was because I installed the unofficial Windows 2000 SP5. It apparently broke the ability for the wireless to work. I also had other stupid moments of mine where I didn't realize the wifi switch was turned off, resulting in no wifi despite having 2000 installed. I was an utter noob at system drivers when I first tried Windows XP back in 2014. Now, I've upgraded an R60 quite a bit: gave it a T7200, 4gb of ram, and a 320gb hard drive. The thing works like a charm now. I did a ton of photo editing using paint.net with a Windows 7 installation. I had a Windows 10 installation at one point, but it broke by itself. Found myself experimenting with different operating systems for a long time. Never got ME working on this laptop model. Now the system currently functions as an XP-testing machine for software I post on my personal-ish blog to organize software a bit. I personally prefer this computer over any modern laptop with its comfortable keyboard Thanks to MSFN, I learned quite a bit: the power of internet archive, FTP search engines, searching original file names, manually installing system drivers, driverpacks, system basics, and more. Even learned a bit of psychology -
Video Capture Software for Windows 98?
FantasyAcquiesce replied to FantasyAcquiesce's topic in Windows 9x/ME
That one is by far my favorite screen capture program. However, I meant a video recording program. Changed title. -
Video Capture Software for Windows 98?

I'm looking for something free...thanks anyway! -
Browsing the web on 98/ME in 2019 and beyond
FantasyAcquiesce replied to Destro's topic in Windows 9x/ME
While KM can't watch youtube (I recall siria got it enabled somehow), it's far better at rendering certain pages like image sites (Pexels is a great example). Both Opera and KM can't access MEGA but only KM74 can access Yandex Disk (but the download button is broken...). Opera lacks a custom user-agent spoofer as well. If you can link me to a good font pack for Windows 9x, please do so immediately. I'm so sick of files with symbols being unable to transfer onto Windows 9x -
I find it interesting how difficult it appears to come by a proper video capturing software on the internet. I would've figured there would've been plenty during the lifespan of 9x... I've been looking for a screen recorder for Windows 9x for years, if anyone knows of one, then please inform me! Thank you!

I hope it's not too awkward for me to bump this. I am having trouble with Windows ME. I installed the required updates + unofficial service pack updates but I am still getting a message that GDI and USER requires an update! Never mind...It turned out the one provided on the site was outdated and using the 9.7 version fixed everything

Browsing the web on 98/ME in 2019 and beyond
FantasyAcquiesce replied to Destro's topic in Windows 9x/ME
Where exactly is Firefox 3.6 w/ TLS 1.2? Is it supposed to be the NT4 edition? Also, KM74 for Windows 9x works fine for me. It's a bit sluggish and clunky (javascript has to be turned off to prevent TONS of crashes) but works when set on Windows 2000 SP4 or Windows XP API. I believe I am also using the first edition roytam1 intended usable on Windows 9x. I used my physical laptop with Windows ME w/ latest kernelex 20 updates installed if that makes any difference (all down to 17 worked fine): About 50 points higher than Opera 12.02, but the trade-off is speed and stability for better rendering and native TLS 1.2. The browser had also caused my hardware to crash and reset when javascript was not disabled on sites like youtube. -

Compiling Chromium browser for XP
FantasyAcquiesce replied to Dibya's topic in Browsers working on Older NT-Family OSes
While I'm doubting an individual can backport XP easily, it's certainly not impossible considering Maxthon, UC Browser, Coc Coc, Slimjet, Chedot, Advanced Chrome, and a couple more. We just need to figure out how exactly they backport the newer code and what code is removed during the process. I would say building on top of Advanced Chrome for XP would be a good place to start, if anywhere. Problem is that newer versions of Chromium removed the support. Looking at here, the Google developers changed the compiler -
POSReady 2009 updates ported to Windows XP SP3 ENU
FantasyAcquiesce replied to glnz's topic in Windows XP
Is there an AIO installer of POSReady2009 updates? It would be great to have another utility like the Unofficial Service Pack for XP -
If anybody knows a good site like Softpedia, please tell me immediately! I've discovered a Chromium 53-browser for XP, and a 56-based browser as well! So glad those Mandarin classes are paying off! It's sad how language barriers make good software hard to find... Both aren't in English, BUT one does not have all the annoying certificate issues like all the Chinese web browsers (excluding 360 Chrome and more or less Maxathon).

My Browser Builds (Part 1)
FantasyAcquiesce replied to roytam1's topic in Browsers working on Older NT-Family OSes
@roytam1 If you ever want different icons for your builds please let me know I've been playing around quite a bit with paint.net and commercial-friendly stock photos. It's been a pretty fun experience and I would love to share https://imgur.com/a/cgvWC59 3D B&W Win95 icon, golden-ish 9x logo, and my personal Ifranview picture -
Could you post a back-up of these nice drivers? The links in the main thread no longer link to the proper drivers...

The fact Maxthon 5 and 360 browser appears to use Chromium 69 makes me wonder if there's an open-source version available on the internet in Chinese...I don't know enough Mandarin to properly search

I may not remember correctly, but I recall a Chinese web browser called "7-star"...this is another name for the browser? Oh...it appears this is the same company that maliciously installed 360 browser onto people's computers and claimed it was superior to IE6...whether it actually was, I do not know, but I also know that uninstalling the browser originally resulted in reconnecting to the internet confusing. If someone here on the forums knows fluent Mandarin, perhaps there's XP-friendly Chromium 69 laying around someone on the internet in the Chinese language...Maxthon too used Chromium 69.

I am pretty sure I used both latest core.ini and kexbases.dll. It was included in 20, right? I'll try 1.7.5, but I doubt it's going to work considering what happened with the version I mentioned. This occurs with both SMPlayer and UMPlayer; the bar to change time won't work. UMPlayer doesn't really work besides displaying the video (didn't test options though). SMPlayer will display properly, options works, play button works only after the video has ended, but the bar to change time won't work. This is technically an existing issue, but there are far fewer issues on v20 than v19 any day.

Not a programmer, but how difficult would backporting Chromium to XP and Vista be considering we have all the tarballs available? https://gsdview.appspot.com/chromium-browser-official/?marker=chromium-50.0.2625.0-lite.tar.xz.hashe%40 Apparently, Arctic Fox works on XP despite not being supported https://nfeteam.org/forum/threads/windows-xp.1892/

Hey, as I was browsing my options for a windows xp installation, I noticed there was not a single offline installer for Chedot. Is there a way I can create offline installers with web browsers in general? I saw a tutorial on doing so for Chedot by using Resource hacker and makesfx.exe I'm not programmer either but would it be difficult to backport newer Chromium tarballs to Windows XP, given this archive? https://gsdview.appspot.com/chromium-browser-official/?marker=chromium-50.0.2625.0-lite.tar.xz.hashe%40

Jumper's latest kernelex 20 updates + SMPlayer 0.8.6 (portable) plays MP4 perfectly! Version 20 fixed something very well because v19 would only sometimes display the video partially and would not resize! V20 does not crash! <3 MPC-HC 1.6.4.6052 will only install but does not work. This is on actual hardware as well There are a few issues though: screenshots taken with the software will appear as black in the video area and the play button and time won't change.

My Windows ME laptop acts kinda funny...actual programs work fine while the desktop and explorer act laggy... What are some good alternatives? Maybe customization as well I'm hoping to make the laggy-ness of explorer and the ME shell go away EDIT: to avoid making too many topics at once, I'm also asking for some good back-up software. One where I can just create an image backup or something like that and restore Windows!

KernelEx 2022 (Kex22) Test Versions (4.22.26.2)
FantasyAcquiesce replied to jumper's topic in Windows 9x Member Projects
Isn't KernelEx open source? Can't someone just compile all updated files by jumper then replace them in the original KernelEx code then compile a Windows 98-friendly installer? -
Installing Windows XP on Bay Trail-M CPU

Installing Windows XP on Bay Trail-M CPU
FantasyAcquiesce replied to FantasyAcquiesce's topic in Windows XP
Thank you! Any tips of modifying will also be appreciated! I just realized my biggest issue is the Encryptor/Decrypter Controller. It's been causing annoying, brief moments of freezing and slowdown. The problem is there is only a Windows 7 driver at closest. The network and audio are the other two last concerns I used Snappy Driver Installer and it installed Bluetooth and USB 2.0 and 3.0 drivers (although the USB drivers had a missing entry point despite successfully installing)
