My Browser Builds (Part 5)
modnar replied to roytam1's topic in Browsers working on Older NT-Family OSes
Local flea market site ( http://www.bolha.com/ ) must have been changed or modernized - too much for Serpent 52.9 6-21 and one version before, 5-31. I'd say Serpent is missing some functionality? It can still be navigated though... -

Works normally here without any changes to the Serpent 52.9 05-28. -

Thank you for such an exhaustive article for our elderly WinXP. -

Please, someone post the link to the CAupdater - I only have the heinoganda 1.6 cmd-based updater. Would like to have both. Thank you. -

Sweet! I used to run NT4 because it's tiny even compared to NT5 for OpenTTD server. Oh how I dreamt of such a project way back when I ran Win95 and NT4 dual-boot, but then I switched to Win98, WinMe and finally Win2000... -

VK in Serpent 52.9 crashes the browser with mozjs.dll stated as problematic and ozon.ru is just milling about the bot check page (I was shown a message to stop the unresponsive script, so I did). -

I saw I had to use Supermium for websites that are "too new" for Serpent/newmoon (avif support, etc.). -

@covo by the way, what if you right-click on the setting and choose "Reset"? What are your other "gfx" (in about:config search for gfx) settings? @adata I'm using Serpent 52.9 and I too only get spinning wheel when clicking on thumbnail on the forum link you posted and also on techpowerup forum for that matter. -

Since last 2 releases of Serpent 52.9 on TechPowerUp forum attached images do not show, when I click on / maximize them, e.g. GPU-Z screenshot attachment. Is there any remedy for this? Probably just have to wait for the upstream to adopt all the "modern" additions to the FF code... -
You could also perhaps use speedguide.net 's TCPOptimizer...

I experimented with FSFilter Infrastructure group at 0b (as Filter group) and system works well, but I don't think it's needed.

Default XP filesystem means factory settings for file system in registry: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\FileSystem - disable8dot3=0, win31=0, win95t=1. XP disk handling is quite rigid and doesn't really handle any tweaks well, therefore FSFilter Infrastructure group should be 04 and Filter group at 0b.

Windows 7-10 doesn't always make that "System reserved" partition. When there is WinXP installed on E: (second partition on primary disk, secondary disk is D:) and you install Win "7" or "10" on C: or D: (partitions already existing and 4K-aligned) you'll get a normal installation without any hidden partitions created.

In Serpent 52.9 wildberries don't work (checking indefinitely), vk works/shows (didn't log in), instagram works/shows (didn't log in). -

Maybe you're just too quick for the hardware - sometimes it takes a bit to show restore session button/option in "History". It's now faster than ever here after I balanced the FSFilter sub-system: I extend my dumpster fire remark to all Windows. -

You still haven't used the latest version? Restore session has never been broken here (that I would notice) and I do use it from time to time. Sometimes it just take a bit longer to load/show that button/option at the bottom of the start page or in "History" menu. --------------------------- As for that CSS nesting for those icons - I do read the news and if it is about dumpster fire that is Windows NT 6.x, so be it. -

While reading The Register about new Win11 "feature", I went to its Microsoft page and there (scroll down) linked_in, facebook and other socialist media icons are super-sized in 2025-03-27 version of Serpent 52.9. -
@Multibooter Please also delete the "Group" (file system) reg. file for Sbiedrv - it is not needed when XP filesystem is factory (no NTFSLastAccessUpdate tweak). I sent you PM about this...

I would advise you to only use Spybot_Search_n_destroy_1.6.2 additions to hosts file and maybe a few specific others for particular programs that you add yourself. -

After a long time with Serpent (still my main browser) I finally installed Supermium (R7, ungoogled) due to its AVIF support and it works well and if you install "simple grey" theme, you get nice rounded tabs and good for eyes.

@basilisk-dev Might I bother you to implement AVIF image decompression into basilisk? Whilst it's google's nasty preference over the better JPEG-XL it's still useful to have all the sites working...
