Is this the same issue that the XP HAL timer patch addresses?
I'm not sure if that's it. It mentions an ACPI timer, but this thread is about HPET, which doesn't depend on the processor frequency and is measured in milliseconds rather than megahertz.

Could be posible lower the timer with this tool? some command line to enter the desired timer? I wanted to test below 1ms
No, you cannot set a different value. As far as I know, these values are hard-coded into the OS kernel, and you cannot set a value lower than 1 ms.

The only reason I'd like this system to have access to the most ram possible is because I keep a lot of tabs open in firefox and past a certain point the system becomes unstable. Is that something that more ram can fix?
If it starts using more memory than it has and the OS has to constantly dump the excess into a swap file, then yes, this can cause it to run unstable. Increasing the available memory should fix this, because each tab will be able to use 2 GB of RAM.

I'm not seeing the "advantage". What am I missing? Before/After comparison?
This manifests itself in the fact that the time on the computer starts to rush. This occurs when working with relatively new versions of Chrome-based browsers, such as 360, Chromium 87, and Supermium. They constantly switch the timer mode from 1 to 16 ms, which causes the time to run ahead. This program switches the timer to continuous operation in 1 ms mode, so the time is correct.

I use this: https://yadi.sk/d/KpTGDPITsNWn7w the program itself is in the Timer_Fix folder.
Brief description: Timer_Fix program with source code written in Visual Studio 6.0. The program has no interface; after launch, it will set the system timer to a period of 1 ms and leave it unchanged. The program will remain in the processes until the OS is rebooted. For convenience, it is best to place this program in “Startup” and completely forget about the problem of time passing. No issues have been found with using this method.

The SysWOW64 folder contains 32-bit files. Including the ntoskrnl.exe file.

If it were possible to fix it in the registry, they would have done so instead of creating a program. No, in XP, you cannot set a timer without third-party programs.

Or install fix128. It will install the kernel from Server 2008 R2, and the OS will see and use all available memory, i.e. 16 GB. However, not all drivers are compatible with the current PAE mode, so you need to check.

This is SP1 only, without Framework 1.1.

I've collected various USB3 drivers that I found on different forums. They work differently on different motherboards and with different ACPI, so before installing it is better to make a backup of the OS, because it happens that the OS stops booting. The first one to try is AMD+Intel, it does not add any additional layers to the system, for example ntoskrn8.sys. If it doesn't work, then try the others one by one.

Could there be strings attached?
I think he just didn't repackage, internet is fast, wired internet usually doesn't have traffic limits, so it doesn't matter what the file size is.

The 7z archive is also used in the official Chrome installer. And e3kskoy7wqk just extracted it from the installer, you can check, download ungoogled-chromium_135.0.7049.41.1_installer_x64.exe and extract chrome.7z from it, the hash should match. Properly you should have extracted and re-archived, but with normal compression, format is not important in principle, everyone has some archiver to open any format.

the new 135 is 400mb in size, is this normal?
It looks like e3kskskskoy7wqk just unpacked chrome.7z from the installer, and there it is packed without compression. If I compress in 7zip (with ultra compression) the unpacked Chrome-bin folder, I got an archive size of only 101 MB for the 64 bit version of the browser.

Do you know how to turn off the highlighting of inactive tabs when I hover over them?
Probably not, I've read that many people complain that it can't be turned off.

Just a small detail to ask.
--disable-features=UserAgentClientHint flag had been returned in the Vista version?
No, he hasn't updated the Vista version.

@D.Draker there is good news and bad news. The good is that the --disable-features=UserAgentClientHint flag has been returned, and the bad is that there will no longer be support for Vista and 7 without SP1. A project https://github.com/Chuyu-Team/YY-Thunks was used to return compatibility, but the author no longer wants to use it.

Thanks, it doesn't disable the API, I already tried it before. This non-working flag is a gift from @VistaLover.
From the times he was trying to make Supermium somewhat usable.
Created Issue.

Either the original Ungoogled developer lied, which is not rare, as we saw earlier, or this fork is not completely ungoogled, but I'd like to to the bottom of this, thanks.
Looks like that flag just got changed, so now it's --enable-features=RemoveClientHints
In chrome://flags it's called #remove-client-hints

It's fast and snappy, but RAM usage is heavy, despite being 32bit.
Maybe it's the same problem as it was with Chrome-like browsers in WinXP, when they consumed a lot of memory due to installed C++ 2015-2019. Try unzipping those dlls into the browser folder, if the memory consumption drops, then that's it.

D.Draker ungoogled 134 is made for Vista, check it out.

Thank you, the older Ungoofed version 134 (from January or December?) was released today.
Created an issue, asked if he could make an ungoogled version that works on Vista and 7 without SP1. And 134 is the current version, but 136 is the nightly version, so the version is higher.

Thank you very much, could you then ask if he makes an Ungoofed version for Windows 7 without SP or any other updates, which would also work on Vista, like v136.
The new build of Firefox 138 now works on Vista too, only the 32 bit version of the browser for now, and it's not guaranteed to work, but it's clear that it's moving in that direction, you just have to wait for the new ungoogled version.

how can I set timer resolution?
in Windows XP
Posted
It also works, but after launching it sets the timer to 2 ms, after launching the browser it switches to 1 ms, and after closing the program it remains at 1 ms.
