Pcmark05 doesn't complete the entire suite of tests on my machine. I think it depends on outdated functions in IE that no longer work. No scores were provided.

Ooo this is fun. I'm doing a clean install of XP 64-bit on a Phenom II X6 1100t machine right now. I'll post my results when done installing

I'm encountering a weird problem where my my internet connection speed seems to be throttled down to 20mb/s only when I'm using Windows XP. This occurs when I'm using my Realtek 8811CU WiFi adapter, as well as the onboard Realtek LAN on the mobo. Under Windows 11 this problem is not present, as I'll achieve DL speeds up to 300mb/s, and it also occurs when I'm using a completely different motherboard, and different installation media. I've fiddled with the qos packet scheduler in the group policy editor, and that made no difference either. Does anyone have any ideas?

Chrome 115 working on Windows XP 32 bit
sparty411 replied to sparty411's topic in Browsers working on Older NT-Family OSes
It will work, but you won't be able to have many tabs open concurrently. The 4 tabs I had open were using roughly 2.5 GB of RAM. -
Chrome 115 working on Windows XP 32 bit
sparty411 replied to sparty411's topic in Browsers working on Older NT-Family OSes
What is more concerning is the fact that windows firewall prompted me, asking if I would like it to continue blocking connections from the Chrome application. It would appear that the browser is trying to phone home or something. -
I thought this deserved its own thread, as opposed to hijacking the supermium thread. I'm posting from this browser right now on my XP machine with discord, ESPN, and youtube open, and haven't experienced any crashes or bizarre bugs yet. I'm a bit disappointed that we don't have access to the source code, though. https://github.com/weolar/xpchrome

The core speed actually fluctuates properly depending on load, believe it or not! I have PBO enabled as well, so I think it tends to boost a bit more aggressively. I had a torrent downloading in the background, so that might explain why it was boosting. But yes, thank you, this thing absolutely rips with XP installed

I believe it makes calls to the GPU for webgl

Right, I just think the fact that one core API is far enough along to allow a late version of Chrome to run at all is an achievement in and of itself. Progress is being made.

I stumbled across this today, and figured it was worth sharing.

Its great to see that he is still with us. I was concerned there for a while.

My Browser Builds (Part 3)
sparty411 replied to roytam1's topic in Browsers working on Older NT-Family OSes
No scripts are being blocked. It seems to be an issue exclusive to 27, because 28 works just fine. I prefer to use 27 though, as it is much lighter on system resources. -

I am unable to solve the new captcha on 4chan with New Moon 27.10.0. Anyone ideas? When I drag the slider to make the different parts of the letters in the image line up, nothing happens. -

Yeah, I was about to mention that. I'm running the latest version of Debian for x86 on my Latitude D800. -

Ah, I don't think you appreciate the gravity of the situation. This is like anuddah 9/11, according to Tobin.
