Since there aren't a lot of SAPI5 very good voices to test, I decided to research about other TTS System. Then I found Piper, a TTS that is trained using AI. I even could train my own model bassed in the old NokiaTTS in spanish. It suggest that is quite responsive in some old hardware, and my created model seems to be quite fast. However, these TTS softwares doesn't seem to work in Windows Vista Extended or Windows 7. Apparently it cannot use onnxruntime dll. Is there a chance of running them maybe recompiling Onnxruntime with other params or whatever can be done? I'm trying to run this https://github.com/mush42/sonata-nvda NVDA seems quite reliable to test the latency of TTS Systems.

I have issues while trying Android Studio 2021+ on Windows Vista. The fact is that it worked on an older release, but in the latests releases don't work. I also had issues with Eclipse, but not sure if that's also related with Java control pannel issue and Android Studio 2021 issue.

What do you think about the use of AI in web search engines?
Sergiaws replied to Sampei.Nihira's topic in Web Browsers
AI might be used more cautiously. I think it can improve research, however if it's is missused it woule be dangerous, especially a very strong integration with the system. But regarding search engines, I love a search engine called exa.ai. In my opinion, it's sometimes even better than google. -
Modernizr for IE5.5
Sergiaws replied to WinFX's topic in Web Development (HTML, Java, PHP, ASP, XML, etc.)
What's the point of fixing modernizr for IE5.5? IE regarding js and web standards really sucks. If you just want that people could browse with older browsers, use techniques like graceful degradation or progressive enhancement. Regarding browser choices, Windows 95+ users could use RetroZilla (bassed on Firefox 2.x) that's much modern and better than Internet Explorer 5.5. If you still want to use IE, there where a tutorial on betaarchive that allowed you to use IE6 on Windows 95. Regarding Windows 3.1 or lower, just use a text-based browser. -
Hi @Win32 and others! Can be implemented in extended kernel the function SetWaitableTimerEx and other similar stuff that rely on it? I read on some Microsoft forums that the mentioned procedure is used on some Office 365 installers and other Microsoft products, so maybe it might improve Office 2016+ in Vista, but not sure. In my situation, I've been trying to run NVDA 2024.1 in Windows Vista. They migrated from python 3.7 to Python 3.11, however that shouldn't be a big deal since I've been running Python 3.9+ with the dlls provided here. https://github.com/nalexandru/api-ms-win-core-path-HACK The deal is that running the installer or a portable copy of NVDA gives me the following error: The procedure entry point SetWaitableTimerEx could not be located in the dynamic link library KERNEL32.dll. Note that if you want to test, you need to spoof the sistem as Windows 8.1 or 10 to run it successfully.

I also prefer Ungoogled versions of Chromium, I even enabled some of these flags. But, I still have a question, how much faster is Supermium compared to Brave and Microsoft Edge (in theory the fastest Chromium versions in Windows environments).

New 2009 Youtube frontend! Does it work well on Windows 9x systems?
Sergiaws replied to Sergiaws's topic in Windows 9x/ME
Do you have Flash Player enabled? I think it is required. In theory, Firefox 3.x and newer has html5 video support, so maybe it uses the html5 player. But as far as I read, the player also has a flash version. -
I have some questions. Doing this it is possible to upgrade directly from Windows 7 to Windows 11, or even upgrade from Windows Vista to Windows 10/11?

And, the other page posted by the author works on Chromium 87, and there's a Chromium 87 for Windows XP (Kaffan MiniBrowser). That's the best browser for viewing modern pages on XP, however it might require a bit of spoofing in the future.

will windows 11 become the new vista failure of the 2022s?
Sergiaws replied to legacyfan's topic in Windows 11
I want to share something interesting! Windows 11 is apparently starting to loose market against Windows 10! https://gs.statcounter.com/windows-version-market-share/desktop/worldwide/ Surprisingly, Windows XP surpased Windows 8 again! -
Future of Chromium on older Windows 10 versions and RTM.
Sergiaws replied to Dixel's topic in Windows 10
In that case, what would be the oldest Windows release where latest Chrome could work? -
I want to create an extended kernel for Windows 95
Sergiaws replied to WinFX's topic in Windows 9x/ME
I also would suggest to add support for the latest MSAA if it's possible xd. -
how you restore the files? I before updating the extended kernel run sfc /scannow, then I restart the system, then I install newer version of the Extended Kernel.

@Win32 can you take a look to this? Apparently the function WTSQuerySessionInformationW is broken or unavailable. Obtained this log from NVDA which references that function. It's a 32 bit program. https://pastebin.com/CM4fyJXJ

But, noone answered me. Will even Vista RTM (fresh installation) recognice properly my audio card and my USB stuff (of course USB 2.0)? Will there run any XP SP2 software? My audio card (Realtec) and USB stuff work properly on a freshly installed Vista (custom iso) with SP2.
-
I might try some day the RTM as someone suggested, but I have several questions. Firstly, will Vista RTM recognice my sound card and my USB devices? These devices work well with Vista SP2 (a custom iso), and audio is very important for me. Secondly, what about Net Framework 4.6 after the installation? I don't want to break nothing, and the custom iso I used had .net framework 4.6 integrated. Newer .net versions break Windows Update and some old .net 4 applications, so installing .net framework 4.7 or newer is not a solution.
-
yea, archive.org might be the best source for older operating systems.

Here's my suggestion! 1. Open a cmd. 2. Type there sfc /scannow. 3. Wait until the process is completed and restart your pc. $. Run the ExKernel setup, if the first time it's not working you should run it one more time. Then, if the installer tells that the setup is complete, you can restart the system. Additionally, after the scanning, you should take all .bak files and move it to another place or rename the extension from .bak to .bak1 or whatever you want. That worked for me at least.

is windows vista possible next to windows 11 on uefi mode?
Sergiaws replied to legacyfan's topic in Windows 11
it might, but you would need to disable secure boot. -
Recently, I needed to downgrade the Extended Kernel, but finally reupgraded to the march 9 build. The fact is that now Eclipse IDE is not working, while some Java SWT apps still work. Here's the link. https://pastebin.com/raw/ucNvHBPd I'm wondering if this is related with Windows Vista Extended Kernel or is related with a strange Eclipse behaviour. To solve it, I tried to upgrade and downgrade Eclipse. Is also important to tell that I use a portable version. I also tried with different versions of the extended kernel, (all 2023 builds and the latest 2022 build). Apparently only Eclipse is affected. I also tried to install/uninstall Java, but no result since it uses it's own JDK as I could notice.
