    Beauty! I like this icon. And the orange you added later really complements it

    took me a bit to find the thread again, it got put in a better place i see. Yeah, after several minutes of searching in the BIOS i finally found a setting for PME events, set it to disabled, and sure enough it stayed off. Still sorta weird that it did that in the first place, but whatever. Thank you for the help!

    When I test the patches I typically use darksky.net, a google search results page, MSFN, and the vogons forum

    It's not Windows XP. If any version of windows, that thick taskbar, and the small, non-green start button would say that it's Windows 7 (Windows Basic theme) But its probably not windows. https://www.theinquirer.net/inquirer/news/2446733/russia-plans-a-switch-to-linux-to-rid-the-country-of-western-pigdogs https://www.defenseone.com/technology/2019/05/russias-microsoft-knockoff-gets-security-upgrade/157310/ Apparently some unnamed russian internet offical has confirmed it to be XP, but it sure doesnt look like it. I’m not convinced.

    Hey guys, I’m now the proud owner of a PCI 8400GS that I got for my Compaq DeskPro EN running Windows XP. There’s just one small issue. With this PCI GPU in, the computer will not shut off. Doesn’t matter if I boot windows or not, and it happens in other computers that I’ve tried the card in, too. It does “flick” off for a split second but promptly turns back on and begins booting again. My questions are: -Why does this happen? -Is there anything I can do to stop it, like taping over a specific “power on” pin or something? thanks, i430VX

    Probably worn belts. Probably not easy to source a replacement, but usually if you open (at your own risk, they can be complex to put back together) the drive, you can twist the belt so it forms a cross pattern, and that will provide extra tension. Otherwise a hard hit while it is trying to eject usually convinces those drives to open. However for jumper's laptop, sounds like something else, as those "Slimline" drives don't usually have belts...

    Dunno, I have ran 7 there but I have not recently, I don't remember so much as to that.

    Yugo over to South America and get some Chile.

    Welcome to MSFN!
  12. i430VX
    yes. remove the program folders (profile folders can stay with the exception of KMgoanna if you have that, which you should back up manually.) Then proceed to use the installer in your normal method on your normal account, as you have before the most recent version.

    A modern Opera Presto browser! -kidding! Kidding! I know you’re a mozilla guy... I’m not really sure, at this moment... I will try to think of a good thing, I suppose there is the question, what can you build that you haven't yet?
  14. i430VX
    Yes, no uninstaller exists at this time. I believe running the installer on the administrator account has modified permissions on the folder, so thats why the installer can’t automatically upgrade. sorry for the confusion
  15. i430VX
    @roytam1 It looks like you have now seen your own proof it works without SSE, but here is mine anyway, just in case you want to see. The browser is a bit sluggish, as expected, due to no real GPU and an old budget processor, but it does indeed work on this MMX-only Mendocino CPU.

    1a. I still cannot replicate that error on any of my machines. 2 a, b and c: Sorry, i didnt mean literally the "Administrator" account, just an account with admin privileges. please install from your normal account as you were doing, because if it worked before you evidently have sufficient rights there. Also, @roytam1 I can provide that screenshot you ask for when i get home later today

    Even though it works on MMX-only?? forgot to mention till now, but it does not still work on the K6, as I expected, due to the K6 having a half-baked MMX. I do not beleive this to be a bug. But as I believe I stated, the serpent IA32 build works completely fine on my Mendocino 500MHz PII-Based Celeron with MMX only and not any SSE. Here's even a shot of it running on the MMX-only mendocino
  18. i430VX
    I can certainly try again on the K6, tomorrow. Just about to go to sleep here.
  19. i430VX
    Turns out it was because the AMD K6 seemingly doesnt have a full MMX implementation. Serpent IA32 works fine on the Mendocino (full MMX) Anyway: Announcing browser installer version 3.1! Change Log: -Added Support for Serpent IA32 -added message to warn users to run as Admin -updated serpent info in the info section As always, get it here: http://i430vx.strangled.net/files/XP/RoyTam%20Browser%20Installer.exe
  20. i430VX
    On my K6 166MHz system, yes. That's the one. Haven't tried the Mendocino yet.
  21. i430VX
    I tried the new serpent build on an even older PC, since I saw "ia32" I figured it didn't even need SSE. However it does not appear to run. Does the Serpent ia32 build require SSE, and as such is a bit mislabeled, or is NoSSE support just not working right now but intended to be at some point?
  22. i430VX
    Hi RoyTam1, tested your Serpent 52 Non-SSE2 test build, It's working beautifully on my Pentium III 1.4GHz. Once I finish tweaking it I expect it to run even better. But even as of now, discord web (which, if you aren't familiar, is very bloated and slow, even a bit sluggish on my Core Duo ThinkPad) is quite usable on the PIII using that browser. It's truly amazing. I'd imagine you may find more optimizations to make, as the build is in it's infancy. Keep up the good work, dude!
  23. i430VX
    Like win32 said, yep! even k-meleon, i made it back up the profile first for that one, since its in the program folder. planning on making it more seamless for other browsers (as in, not deleting the UOC patch if installed)
  24. i430VX
    I have updated my Unofficial RoyTam1 browser installer to version 3.01! change log: -fixed download of FF45 SSE (was downloading a .gpc file instead of the 7z) as always, keep me updated with bugs, feature requests, and problems. get it here: http://i430vx.net/files/XP/RoyTam Browser Installer.exe

    What ever happened to that effort to port stock chromium?
