Since we're talking about media foundation, is your dreamscene working? Mine is broken. https://prnt.sc/w2q6om - Dreamscene encountered critical error.

that what i thought. I don't care myself honestly, but still kinda bummer.

My best guess is that we replaced the media foundation with files from windows 7, but not 100% sure

Oh yeah that's also true for me. But I got bsod instead of this message.

@TECHGEEKMind if I ask if your dell laptop has fingerprint reader? Mine does have it, but I was not able to make it work in vista. Any ideas?

Thank you! I finally managed to dualboot them. Man you saved me.. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Could you also please lock the thread? since it may help someone too, but I don't need any more help.

How did I went off topic?? I'm asking about api missing in ntdll I really don't understand why are you so angry? I said sorry, didn't want to make you this mad. but I was not off topic. I really have no idea why this is getting so intense right now

I didn't want to argue, I just presumed that this generic message is known to everyone. Oh well, sorry if you felt offended by that.

? I'm typing in english. And my guess anyone dealing with extended kernel is familiar with this error message. If it was important, I would translate that.

why? win32 need to only understand missing api in ntdll.dll

I guess ntdll means it is dead end?

Can somebody please try bandicam with extended kernel? for me it is working without ex kernel, but not when I have it installed.

To be honest you only need brain to stay secure. No matter what kind of OS you run. Microsoft is desperately trying to kill off Windows 7/8.1 They only do things to help windows 10 marketshare. Like releasing d3d12 for windows 7, but intentionaly crippling performance on windows 7. They even did not bother with the release for windows 8.1 Microsoft became really evil lately. They are hungry for marketshare since iOS beat them in USA.

the ssd is sata. I was so desperate yesterday, that I took the computer home, made complete image of the ssd to my external drive and installed windows 7 to see what would happen. Os selection appeared on boot. I was happy only up until I tried to select Windows 8.1. (translating from czech now) "The required device cannot be accessed" or sometimes "Inaccessible boot device". My vm suggestion was denied so I guess I'm screwed now.

Windows embedded industry pro 8.1 will give us 5 months.

Well the're using serial port to interact with the device (kinda hard to explain cause I only know the name of it in czech). I was given the awful task to just "make this dualboot".

Well I forgot to say that Windows 8.1 is booting in UEFI. That is why I said that I don’t think it will work without any hassle.

Hello, we have computer in work that runs Windows 8.1 nowadays. Some proprietary software that our company uses (from 1997 btw ) only works on Windows 7. We need dualboot that WILL DEFINITELY NOT destroy Windows 8.1 in any way or shape. On this computer we have a lot of important things (they are backed up, but still). They want the computer to be able to boot Windows 8.1 as default option, but when needed to restart into Windows 7. The problem is, that newer os is already installed and I think, that Windows 7 boot manager will not recognize Windows 8.1 and vice versa. Any ideas? The specs are: Dell Optiplex 9010 Intel Core i7-3770 16gb DDR3 GT 1030 1Tb - Hdd in raid 1 with another hdd Only one 1tb hdd. That was different machine 😅 boot ssd - 128 gb

Oh I remember my old laptop with AMD turion 64 x2 tl-60 running windows 8.1 just fine

Rtx voice is working, but this is not. I have dualboot with windows 7 and On that I get error message saying, that I have no rtx card installed. On windows 8.1 the installer continues, but says broadcast have not been installed

It Does not work

Rtx 2060 on windows 8.1:

But who uses pentium 4 as their daily machine anyways? I don't want to wait 5 minutes just for the browser to load.

Well yes, but last one is from january 2020 so you still need WUFUC to function. For example reliability updates to support new browsers: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4534297/windows-8-1-kb4534297

Actually sometimes they are not only security fixes. Windows 8.1 received nvme updates and usb-c reliability updates. They are important for new systems.
