Anyone know of Bluetooth 5.0 drivers? The Bluetooth 5.0 dongles you can get off of ebay don't have Windows XP drivers and only work properly on like Windows Vista and 7 (with peripheral drivers). They don't work very well on Windows 8.1 or 10 either.

The latest version of Cool Reader 3 works fine on all Windows OSes you mentioned. I don't get any crashes.
I wonder if my 8.1 installation is missing an update then. It only crashes for me.
In addition, I also found that the latest version of Midori and Waterfox work just fine. Though, I've found Midori to be most efficient and not freeze opposed to using Supermium and Waterfox. It's a lot lighter too.
Qutebrowser 3.0.0 does not launch on Windows 8.1 and states it requires Windows 10 Build 1607 or later. Seeing this is a build from 2015, maybe 8.1 could run the browser if we bypass the installer?

Can anyone check which version of Cool Reader 3 works on Windows Vista/7/8.1?
I tried running it on my Windows 8.1, but it only crashed.

Would it be possible to test this program on Windows NT 4? I do not have a machine on me.

Back.
The computer works more swift with Windows 8.1 than Windows 10, but I am having one issue: my earphones don't have their own volume.
I will check if any other sound drivers are available and update.0 -
I'm in a similar position as you. Unfortunately, I couldn't even get a modified Windows 7 w/ an updated ACPI.sys, USB 3.0 drivers, and various components to work on Bay Trail. But, given your device is based off of an Ivy Bridge, there may be hope.
Your best bet is to try SDI Origin or any driverpack. Feel free to share the hardware IDs of your device- sometimes, you could find a driver for said device.
I've personally given my AIO Dell Inspiron Windows 8.1 for the time-being. Linux was sluggish on the device.

Apparently someone has modified those drivers for Windows 7 and the are supposed to work on 8.1 too.
I know nothing about them so use on your own risk.
Thank you! It turns out DeathBringer's modified INF + drivers did the trick here.
I had to disable driver signature enforcement and thing works like a charm on my Dell Inspiron 3670. ^o^

Hello MSFN,
I possess a Dell Inspiron 3670 with an i3-8100 CPU, but am having one last issue with this desktop: a display driver. My hardware is entirely supported and my resolution is good, but I am stuck with the generic Microsoft driver for display.
Is there a Windows 8.1 driver in existence or would attempting to spoof the OS version make any difference? If not, is there a good generic universal driver that could take the place of this driver? I do not need the desktop for heavy 3D activities- just basic streaming and word processing.
Thank you for your time.

He installed Windows Vista Extended Kernel. This is unrelated with vanilla Vista.
Ah, thank you for the clarification- I must've missed it.

Apparently, Firefox (a build from 7 months ago, as seen in this video's post date) works on Windows Vista when spoofed as Windows 7:
Anyone got a clue which version this is and a program to ensure spoofing of Windows Vista's version? Vista version build 6002 was used.

With custom build of this driver and special patched shadow bios i was finally able to get my native 1280x800 resolution on notebook with 915GM!
And holy crap, it works awesome, i was even able to watch videos. Still no audio, lan or wlan, though, but i'm sure that sometime i'll be able to solve this
If author gives me permission, i'll release this version for 915GM, otherwise anyway sometime version with support for non-standard resolutions will come.
Do these drivers support 3D acceleration by chance?

Hello MSFN,
I recently ordered 2 different IDE to USB adapters, and I am wondering if anyone has any luck with these. I got a powdered inateck brand and a generic adapter. At first, it seemed the hard drives would show up but it began to stop. The inateck one only read the IDE drive after a while if it was forced into a certain position with the hard drive physically.
I should also mention the 2 IDE hard drives tested with the devices have somewhat crooked pins. I'm not sure if that alone is the culprit because I tested another non-crooked drive on the devices without success.
Is this just plain bad luck on my part or has anyone else been having bad luck with these adapters?

Hello MSFN,
I have a laptop, an Acer Nitro 5. This laptop came with a GTX 1050 but stablediffusion does not find a compatible GPU with the program. I find this quite irritating because almost 1000 USD was spent to obtain this device a few years back. If there are any known workarounds or suggestions, please discuss!
Thank you!

BUT it needs to run on 9x/Me?
I am asking because - generally speaking - this kind of software needs lots of memory/RAM, otherwise it will often swap to hard disk, slowing down each and every operation, and the typical machine running 9x/Me will have some memory limits and relatively slow hard disk(s).

Yes. I am hoping to make my old Windows ME laptop useful
Applications like PhotoMix are what I am searching for.

Hello,
To this very day, I am frustrated with what little freeware and open source options exist for simply inputting multiple images and putting them in a nice arrange and/or background. Collages software has existed for decades now and I am just hoping to find one for use on etsy. I am hoping for anything.
Thank you for your time.

The title says it all.
Do any good ones for low-end PCs exist out there? My Windows 2000, XP, Vista, and 7 PCs aren't going to die for a very long time and could use some repurposing.

Is there a program I can use to force rename or delete files that are too long on Windows XP? It's a bit annoying I have to bypass the waste bin to force delete.

will really that work on XP? Ana tts is pressent on Windows Vista/7 as far as I know. XP uses Microsoft Sam.
Yes, there is a version of Microsoft Anna for Windows XP but I'm pretty sure it does not restore TTS on stripped-down installations.

Hello,
My Windows XP computers are incapable of using TTS with components removed. I tried to install SAPI5 but it did not restore the ability to use TTS. I really need text-to-speech for purposes of reading documents and files aloud.
How can I restore TTS to modded Windows XP? It would be a plus if I could also do this on modded Windows Vista and later.

It seems balabolka for WIndows XP has dropped support with the latest version from April 13, 2023. InitializeCriticalSectionEx could not be located in the dynamic link library KERNEL32.dll...

Probably the last 100% working stable version at this point is 110. On the other hand, from the "dev/canary" channel I managed to run probably build 5545 as the last one with the help of a user who unfortunately "escaped" from the forum....
I got a copy of the 111 builds, but never got a chance to grab the 112 build before it was removed.

Seeking Bluetooth 3.0 (UD-300M) USB Drivers for Windows 98SE/ME
in Windows 9x/ME
Posted · Edited by FantasyAcquiesce
Hello,
I recently purchased a UD-300M, BCM2070 Bluetooth 3.0 + EDR USB dongle for my Windows ME laptop but discovered the bundled CD does not include Windows 9x drivers. I am wondering if an older version of this driver exists to provide Windows 9x support.
