As I'm curious, already done in my previous tests! Before installing the Intel USB3 HCSwitch driver and only with the Modded USB3 from MDL, I can plug and use all my USB devices (even the problematic USB flash drives) but not at full USB3 speed (around 30MB/s speed for file transfer). I guess that without the HCSwitch driver, the USB 3.0 ports stay in 2.0 mode. Here the link for all the ACPI tables + ACPI tables in binary format: ACPITables

I have installed 7 again from 0 and resolved the previous issues. Before, I have installed some updates and drivers (video, network and chipset) and made a disk image. By installing the chipset driver, I can see in the devices manager the famous 1E31 device and install and start the Modded USB3 from MDL With the Modded USB3 from MDL and the Intel USB3 HCSwitch driver, each time I plug an USB device in one of the USB3 port, I get a BSOD and laptop restart. After that I have restored the disk image and installed the official Intel USB 3.0 driver for 7. With the official driver, no more BSOD and I can plug and use at full USB3 speed all my USB devices, even the problematic USB flash drives. Regards .

With Intel HD graphics 3000 disable or not, I can't start the AMD graphics card (code 10 error). When I disable Intel graphics card, XP ask for restart, and after restart XP switch on the basic VGA driver. No hope from this side!

Sorry for the delay, I'm very busy! Here what has been done: Windows 7 x86 installed Intel USB3 HCSwitch driver installed (from the original Intel driver for Windows 7) - Right click on the PCI bus in the devices manager -> Update the driver... Modded USB3 from MDL installed - Right click on the USB devices (with missing driver) in the devices manager -> Update the driver... Result: The xHCI controllers can't be initialized (code 37 error) in the devices manager. What to do ?

In my previous post, I have made a mistake. The Dell Vostro 3550 laptop doesn't have a Nvidia graphic card but an AMD graphic card. But the principle stay the same. In the devices manager the driver for the AMD GPU is installed but disable (code 22 error) and can't be enable. Screenshot

Nvidia Optimus ? I own a Dell Vostro 3550 laptop and a Dell XPS L502X laptop. Each of them has a Nvidia graphic card, and as there is no settings in the BIOS for disabling this stupid thing, I can't use them with XP. I own too a few Dell Latitude laptops with the Nvidia Optimus functionnality. But in the BIOS, I can disable it. If someone know how to bypass or disable this feature, I'll take it!

With the latest acpi.sys, no more USB 3.0, only USB 2.0 ! I will try to install Windows 7 as soon as possible. Regards

Many thanks for the trick, no more BSOD!

@daniel_k Happy to see you on this forum! i have a question about the modded Intel USB 3.0 driver. An issue occur on all eligible Dell laptops and ZOTAC ZBOX mini PC that I own. When I switch USB ports from 2.0 mode to 3.0 mode by using the Intel USB3 HCSwitch device driver or the WPCRSET tool, some of my USB flash drives are no more recognized ("USB device not recognized" tooltip on the desktop) In the devices manager there is a code 10 (device can't start). Before the switch and if I rollback to the 2.0 mode, the same USB flash drives are perfectly recognized and usable. On all computers, it's always the same USB flash drives that are concerned. Any idea about this issue ?

Hello, I'm testing Mypal 68.12.1 on a old (2010) HP laptop 8540p. Every few minutes the browser crash with a BSOD: win32k.sys address BF80FA77 base at BF8000000 The crash occur with or without hardware acceleration enable in the settings. Any idea about this issue ?

@AstroSkipper Nice post! I just want to tell you about ProxHTTPSProxy that the last version isn't REV3d. On my HDDs I have a build REV3e release in november 2019. Search in the thread around november 2019 to find the download link. Regards

Somebody from another forum has release an unofficial build of OpenVPN 2.5.4 for XP on Sourceforge: https://sourceforge.net/projects/openvpn-for-windows-xp/files/ Regards

@NotHereToPlayGames Many thanks about this thread ! I'm aware of Proximitron since more than 10 years but the lack of documentation was a big issue. Can I replace ProxHTTPSProxyMII by Proximitron by adding TLS 1.2 or 1.3 support to browsers that lack these features ? If I'm right, The OpenSSL DLLs that you provide only support TLS 1.2 ? Can you explain us how to block ads with Proximitron ? A solution based on lists of blocked domains would be welcome as a solution without lists (BFilter ?). My goals : TLS 1.2 and 1.3 support block all ads whatever else that would be interesting to be blocked

Do you know how to use DXVA1 with MPlayer ?

@cmalex has already compiled Python 3.7 for XP more than one year ago: As the official release of yt-dlp doesn't works on XP, I'm using this version of python for compiling yt-dlp as a temporary replacement for youtube.dl on XP. No more issue for downloading from youtube website.

Nice !!!! I have installed the software on one of my computers and I have copied the command-line scanner with the virus database on another computer. I can use the command-line scanner without restrictions even without a licence. I'm writing a script for managing the scanner from CMD. @George King Do you know how to download only the virus database for updates ???

Beautiful find ! Thank you for the link.

Yes, I have posted the same question on the Win-Raid forum but until now no answer. . Thank you very much for your answer!

A question to everyone! Is there an XP driver for Intel Iris Pro 5200 graphics solutions? I can find on the internet a lot of links for a driver for XP but concretely does anyone use a PC with XP and this graphic solution? I'm asking the question because I have the opportunity to purchase a computer equipped with an Intel Core i7 4770R. As the computer is a mini PC, no place for a dedicated graphic card, only the integred graphic solution of the CPU can be used. Thank you in advance Best regards

@ArcticFoxie and @VistaLover Thanks you very much for your help! Regards

Hello, In 360 Chrome Browser 12.0.1592.0 (russian repack), somebody know what is the purpose of these settings:

Hello, The last version of Comodo Firewall fully compatible with XP is the 8.4.0.5165. After this release, you begin to have issues with the icon in the system tray and more and more issues after that.

Everybody can check this in the event viewer (winlogon 1001 event in the application category). If you want, you can install the pstools and at the command line : PSLOGLIST -i 1001 -o Winlogon Application

don't fear this! The result you get is normal! I have the same thing on all my computers.

If this is a problem for you, you can add these domain names in the hosts file like this: 0.0.0.0 browser.360.cn 0.0.0.0 cloud.browser.360.cn 0.0.0.0 dd.browser.360.cn 0.0.0.0 qurl.f.360.cn 0.0.0.0 chrome.360.cn 0.0.0.0 ext.chrome.360.cn 0.0.0.0 u.qurl.f.360.cn 0.0.0.0 puv.tt.browser.360.cn 360 Chrome Brower 11 and 12 works like a charm.
