  1. Yes the link mina7601 posted is the download link.

    I haven't tested the latest 1.6 version.

    After getting kernelex installed you need to get the core updates. Once these are setup you should be along the right path to then get Java going. You need to install Java 6 first which I believe is the last installable version and then download jre8. Once downloaded and extracted (the instructions are on the forum) you need to set the exe's to WinXPSP2 compatibility as per firefox. Once java is set you need to add a path in msconfig.

    The path for msconfig is essentially just to redirect the appdata folder for the app as it uses this location to store config data. I kept things easy and made a folder called appdata in my c: root. Msconfig has the environment tab which allows you to then set this variable.

    After, start the jar app using jre8 and not the version 6 you installed earlier. Once done you should be good to go

  2. So further on from my post in the XP forum, I decided to play around on Windows ME to see if I could get the new Java based Spotify client working and to my surprise it works and plays!

    Steps included installing Java 6 then Java 8 as per the instructions on the forum. I have manually set appdata in command line to a folder called appdata in C root however I need to test if this is required or not.

    I don’t believe there has been a spotify client up to now for Win 9x so this may be quite a novelty for some!

    Does anyone knows is there any way to get working Intel SpeedStep Technology in Windows 2000 with Intel Core 2 Duo T7100 CPU (Dell Latitude D630)?

    Might be there's a some way with Extended Kernel?

    I'm already tried official drivers from Dell website, but non of these worked.

    Yes, I know that it can be disabled in BIOS. But my CPU still runs with temperature around 44-45 C while idling (with enabled SpeedStep it runs at 70 C). For example under Windows XP that supports SpeedStep Technology, the same CPU idling with temperature around 34-35 C so laptop fan stops as it should be.

    It’s not speedstep but have you installed the 2k dual core registry fix? That may be causing part of the hotter temperature. My D630 runs fairly cool with the fix but I think my CPU is a T8 something or other

  4. Fair enough that could be an issue... 

    I do have a folder full of 2K updates which I saved with WSUS offline so if worst comes to worse I could put them on a file share for you. I believe on the internet archive people have saved all the updates though too so that might be easier access so you could download and burn to a disc if your laptop has a reader?

    Failing that you’d probably need to go down the slipstreaming route for your installer

    Does anyone know how I fully update Windows 2000 now that Windows Update is dead for it? Want to install the 2000 Extended Kernel, but need to update the machine first. Thanks in advanced for your help!

    @i430VX posted a very handy video which may help you out here

    I use Google search very rarely. I've just tried Google and have set Cookies to keep. Yes, I always have to accept the agreement, too. But it works on XP. So it is a bug on ME/KernelEx.

    Are you running FF45.9.31 (RT) or 45.9? Sometimes RT's FF crashed due to an exception in Xul.dll. (FIREFOX caused an exception 406d1388H in module XUL.DLL at 0177:027c56da)

    Fair enough - it's almost like all data for each session isn't getting saved - when starting again I don't get any autocomplete from before. Maybe it's down to path differences between 9x and NT OS's?

     

    I'm running Roytams build of FF45 SSE version. Haven't had any crashes as of yet but I'll let you know if I do.

  7. Apologies for what feels like spam posting...

    Further to my endeavors I have discovered the following:

    • Address and search bar can be worked around using the above post or by installing Adobe Type Manager 4.1. I used this to install AwesomeFont 4.7 and after this coincidentally fixed the bars. I'm guessing this is down to it installing some required but not necessary files.
    • The browsers do work in a Virtual Machine using the files I got from my extended Windows 2000. This leads me to think there is potentially an issue with one of the files from XP SP3?

    Anyhow, once again thankyou for all the work that has been put in to getting these working.

    Tjukok also reported this bug: msfn.org/board/topic/181424-firefox-24-for-me-and-98/page/12/#elControls_1192061

    So I've had a play around this morning with Classic Theme Restorer and it seems that if you change the toolbar mode from Show Icons Only to any other option then the search and address bar display all the text. Not sure how or why but it's a decent work around.

    Is there any way on FF45 to get it to remember that I've accepted the Google user agreement or is that something I should live with? :D

  9. Hi @schwups just wanted to let you know I finally have ff45 working on Windows ME.

    Not sure what I've possibly done different to last time when I couldn't get it to start. Although the differences this time are I took the DLL's from a KernelEx'd Windows 2000 and I'm also trying it on physical hardware. Is it a possible issue with Virtual Machines or the fact my Dlls came from 2k instead of XP SP3?

     

    Thankyou for your hard work and Jumper in getting this working. One quick question is there anyway to stop the address bar and search bar from missing the last letter?

  10. Currently trying on ME.

    MSVCRT.DLL is version 6.1.9848

    Weirdly I'm now getting XPCOM error. Kernelex settings for XUL and exe are set to XPSP2.

    @ojt_1998: Did you verified KernelEx (verify.exe) and Kext (Ktree - see  Kext Topic) in the meantime?

    Verify.exe says Kernelex is installed correctly. Ktree is showing kextstubs under core.ini. Kextstubs is the file from your post earlier on the thread with a renamed 823 file. I assume this is correct?

    Which dll's are missing? Files in the KernelEx folder must be registered  [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\KernelEx\KnownDLLs]. Otherwise these have no function. Does FF 24 - 35 work on your machine?

    My recommendation: Paste all dll's (XPSP2 or 3) in the Firefox program folder first and then you can open the DW again to see, if you are missing one. You also can copy uxtheme.dll, userenv.dll, pdh.dll, wtsapi32.dll, psapi.dll (Kex Known dll's) in the FF folder for a better troubleshooting with DW.

    And what about Kext - Kstub823.dll / ini file / core.ini entry. Verify it with Ktree.

    Thankyou for your response.

    So those files all exist in the Kernelex folder, knowndlls list has all five listed in quotes like this "XXX.DLL" however the actual file names are lowercase.

    Copying those into the FF folder results in xul.dll saying kernelex.dll is missing. Copying that into the FF folder still results in error on starting. Profiling firefox.exe in dependency walker then shows certcli.dll missing?

    Second chance exception then occurs in msvcrt.dll

    I'm guessing it's something I haven't done but not entirely sure.

    Many thanks

  12. I’m trying to get FF45 to run however I just get an error occurred on opening. DW shows 4 DLLs as missing however they are in the kernelex folder. Is the known DLL list in the registry case sensitive? I’ve added the files from the core updates. Firefox.exe and XUL.dll are both at XP SP2 compatibility mode. I’m guessing I haven’t configured KernelEx correctly but not sure?

    I released RDP7.0 for Win2000 some packeges.

     I think you used lastest package, Windows2000-KB969084-v4-x86-int.wlu

    Yes that’s the one I used. Initially I installed it without having any client installed and received the error so removed and started with the XP version and then installed that over the top. I checked the registry entries for where the language was pointing and the files exist. Googling brings up others who have had the error but obviously on newer oses so not sure if it’s maybe an issue in one of the dll’s and how it links? I don’t want to complain though as I’m truly grateful for all you do for the Win 2K community and the software that now runs thanks to you :)
