    I'm trying to localize Extended Kernel in a language other than English and Japanese.

    Here's how I did it a few months ago:

    1. I unpacked the contents of the English version of KEX into a separate folder.

    2. Went through every single .dll and .exe of the package with Resource Hacker, replacing the contents of "Menu", "Dialog", "String Table" and "Message Table" with the contents from already localized system-native versions of these .dlls.

    3. In update.inf I changed the "LangTypeValue=" so that the installer worked.

    And that's it. Didn't even repackage it back or anything, just ran setup.exe and installed it. Editing all the files took me awhile, but it worked in the end.

    Please try the portable version which i tell about from downloadbull.com

    News : you can run excel , power point word and .. at same time but when you close one of it you should to end task to run it other time .

    I did, it works as it should (ignoring the issue mentioned above).

    Nice to get it work , and about the browser try maypal 68  and 360 Extreme explorer modified ;)

    Maypal 68 work if you check these cases , i think

    Mypal 68 should work natively with KernelEX version 3.1b and newer. It's still possible to run it with older versions of KEX, but you'll have to refer to this guide.

  4. Can confirm, this particular version runs as it should (except for the fact that you'll have to manually terminate the .exe process in task manager after exiting the application, or else it won't start again).

    However, it seems that not all portable versions that are available on the internet are working in the same way - I downloaded a different portable version, and it threw up this error a bunch of times:

    osppsvc.PNG.748ab6b77feecc7d2391e264ee222748.PNG

    after which it closed, because OSPP is broken and it couldn't check the license.

    This could be the exact reason why the installer for the full version fails, too.

    It doesn't even install. All what I did was the same as Office 2007: running setup.exe in XP compatibility mode with fcwin2k and excluding SharePoint Workspace (formerly Groove) from the installation, and this is what it ends up with:

    Same here, Office 2010 installation errors out after being unable to install "Office Software Protection Platform" (osppsvc) service.

    Hello blackwingcat,
    Thank you very much, opera 12.18 now works with
    fixed v31fM.

    However, I just discovered problems with notepad and wordpad
    with v31eM and v31fM  -  but v30fM works fine.
    When closing notepad or wordpad after having worked
    on a document the following happens:
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Notepad
    The text in the Untitled file has changed
    Do you want to save the change ?

    [] [] []  (Y)      [] [] [] (N)     [] [] [] [] []
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Wordpad
    Save changes to Document ?

    [] [] []  (Y)      [] [] [] (N)     [] [] [] [] []
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Instead of squares ([]) and (Y) and (N) it should read:

    [] [] []  (Y)      [] [] [] (N)     [] [] [] [] []
    Yes                No               Cancel

    In this case, squares mean it's likely that a .dll file localized for Japanese version was used in the version of KernelEx that was installed. It's possible to localize it manually by using Resource Hacker, but I don't remember which .dll has this particular dialog box template stored in it.

  7. I've been using a USB sound card, the sound works fine. Just about anything that supports USB Audio Class 1.0 would work straight out of the box with no additional drivers, including modern USB sound cards (as long as they don't support audio quality better than 96KHz - this is the biggest difference between USB Audio Class 1.0 and 2.0).

    Haven't tried any period-appropriate soundcards.

    I use windows XP pro sp3 x86, though I came across a post by someone who states that he has enabled MyPal68 to work on Windows 2000, though I don't use windows 2000 and am unable to verify whether MyPal68 will work on 2000 or not I will share the link for the benefit of those who want to try modifying the mozglue file as indicated in the link and test it on 2000 ,so here is the link:

    modified mozglue file and claims MyPal68 will work on Windows 2000
    https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?f=24&p=1059912

    I hope the information in the link will be interesting and helpful to someone.

    Can confirm, it runs on Windows 2000 with KernelEX after modifying mozglue.dll and xul.dll.

    Here are the instructions I used.

    Looks like someone managed to make MyPal 68 work on Windows 2000 after some file editing:

    http://mrqash.blogspot.com/2022/04/mypal-68-firefox-68121-on-windows-2000.html

    Wonder if those edits can help in any way onto running MyPal on 98/ME, would be amazing if it did so.

    Great find! I can run it on my Win2000 laptop now.

    Unfortunately on Win98 it still errors out with "Can't load XPCOM". No other errors though.

    They use a virtual machine

    I'm running it on metal, actually.

    Downloaded the latest version (KU211123.7z), renamed core.25g to core.ini, replaced the files in C:\Windows\KernelEx with the new ones and the system works without issues. After adding the old stubs (I did the lazy thing and just added Kexstubs.ini in core.ini instead of manually adding the stubs to Kstub824.ini) the browsers work fine, too. Looks like the memory leak issue is fixed (or at least I haven't encountered it yet).

    Haven't tried doing it on a fresh install, but I always install all the necessary drivers first and KernelEx at the very end.

  11. Tried it out on 98SE, was able to boot without problems (my MSVCRT.dll is 6.10.9848.0). Unfortunately any Firefox versions (and other Gecko/Goanna-based browsers) that were working before didn't start. I tried adding Kexstubs in CORE.ini, but after that they all started crashing on start, with problem being, apparently, kexbasen.dll, address 0167:7d011b65. Replacing it with the one from version 24 didn't do anything, so I reverted back for now.

    the use of YouTube on my oldest computer Pentium 4c (SSE2),VIA PT880Ultra, 2GB, NV GF5900XT is no longer possible

    Yes, Youtube is very bloated. Javascript galore.

    I suggest using Invidious - an alternative, much more lightweight Youtube front-end. I was able to watch videos in 480p without stuttering on a weaker computer - a netbook with Intel Atom N270 and i945GME.

    Speaking of youtube, I wasn't able to get any sound from it on my Win98 VirtualBox VM, in SB16 or AC97 mode. And It's probably not a VirtualBox problem, because everything works fine on an XP VM.

    But then I copied "search.json.mozlz4" from my SeaMonkey profile folder to my Mypal profile, renamed it as "search.json", set it to "read only", opened Mypal, and then address bar worked as it should. Never had a problem with it since then. Weird, but I'll take it.

    On further testing it turned out that simply creating an empty text file, naming it "search.json", replacing the original search.json with it and marking it as "read only" works too.

  14. I noticed that whenever I open Mypal without a profile folder and it generates a profile folder for the first time, address bar always works. But when I open the browser any other time, it stops working. Setting search.json to "read only" didn't help.

    UI glitches: Did you set "gfx.content.azure.backends" to skia?

    No, it was "direct2d1.1,cairo". I set it to "skia", glitched are now gone. Thanks!

    As for what happened to Mypal, there is a nice QRD on this whole situation (albeit with some harsh language at times) here. Looks like Feodor2 is just done with this clown show Pale Moon devs are pulling against him.

  15. I haven't been following the thread for a while, only now caught up to it. Tried it out, Firefox 52.9 ESR works, no graphical glitches. Mypal works too, but with minor graphical glitches in the UI and address bar not working.

    Pity about what happened to Mypal. We were just about to get a somewhat-regularly updating browser that works on Windows 98, for the first time in a decade, too.

    Hi Guys

    I have Windows 2000 with extended kernel installed on my acer veriton n260g thanks to blackwingcat i found a driver for the sata ich9 the only problem the Realtek Audio Driver which dont make any sound the yellow exclamation mark is next to the Microsoft UAA Bus driver as well.

    Anyone had experience with this blessed integrated realtek audio?The only thing i can think that maybe i should had installed the audio driver before the extended kernel and maybe that would made it work?

    What you guys think?

    AFAIK Acer Veriton N260G uses ALC662 chip, which should have native Windows 2000 drivers. Try these.

    Also try installing Extended Core v16e, it should let you install some XP drivers.

    i get this with the gpu drivers. Bad GateWay

    If you don't use thedirect link, please change security level down at this site.

    I changed the link, should be OK now.

    Also you'll need to install them manually in Device Manager, and when installing the drivers Windows would ask for NvCplSetupInt.exe, you can get it from 32bit XP version of the driver: https://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/96076/en-us

  18. It will work, but you'll need to slipstream the SATA driver from here: http://blog.livedoor.jp/blackwingcat/archives/844979.html

    Not sure if ACPI would work with it, but you can try replacing your ACPI.SY_ with this .CAB file: http://win2k.org/cgi-bin/dl.cgi?file=acpi.cab

    Also your GPU should work with these drivers (359.06), but you'll need to install KernelEx + Extended Core v16a first: http://blog.livedoor.jp/blackwingcat/archives/1114373.html

    Has anyone gotten Intel Sandy Bridge Graphics drivers to work with Windows 2000?

    I have an Acer Aspire E1-531 from 2013 where I successfully installed 2000 to. To do so, I had to switch the HDD mode from AHCI to IDE and then mash F7 when setup started (so it wouldn't freeze at "Setup is starting Windows 2000"). After installation, I had to fix a BSOD by deleting USBhub20.sys from within a Linux USB. This allowed Windows to boot, but with absolutely no USB support.

    My question is, has anyone gotten Intel Sandy Bridge drivers to work with Windows 2000? I have an Intel Pentium B960 2.20 GHz, which is part of Sandy Bridge. I know Windows XP works as I found drivers for that so I'm guessing I would need to modify the XP drivers? Also, how do you solve the USB driver issue? I currently can't copy anything to it unless I do so from Linux (the DVD's that I have were prepared in XP or later and as it states when choosing how to use the DVD, the live file system only works on XP and later unlike the burn option).

    And a few more things. My laptop has a Qualcomm Atheros AR5B125 Wireless Card. Is there any way to get the XP drivers working under 2000? I've got Boingo Wireless Connection Manager at the ready, just need the drivers. And for the others such as chipset, would I just do the same as the other? Thanks in advanced for your guys help on this!

    Try installing KernelEx and Extended Core v16a. This should allow you to use a lot of Windows XP drivers.
