  1. This video URL for example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HagVnWAeGcM I tested on Firefox ESR 52.9.0 with new clean profile and no Add-ons: 480p - no problems at all 720p - image freezes but audio keeps playing, image froze 3-4 times from 0:00 to 2:00, usually freeze time lasts 7 seconds. Chrome 49, 720p - no problems at all. Maybe I need to install some additional Codec or Firefox Plugin, not sure.
  2. Thanks guys. Have you personally experienced this with Firefox on YouTube - no problem on 480p but often image freezes while audio plays on 720p? Often happens even 30-60 seconds after video starts.
  3. Hi guys, if I want to apply mixit's fix on Firefox ESR 52.9.0 for example, where do I need to put this file cubeb_winmm.c? A little help?
  4. Thanks Usher. I appreciate it. I think my connection is pretty stable, 30 Mb dl, 10 Mb up. This never happens to me with Chrome 49 or any other Chrome-derived browser on 720p. The fact that it only happens to me with Firefox and never with Chrome leads me to believe that the problem is not the connection. I wonder what the problem could be, and why it happens only with Firefox but never with Chrome.
  5. Hi @modnar, I am not sure if we talk about the same issue. When I watch youtube video with Firefox or Firefox-derived browser on 720p, often the audio will continue but the image will freeze for 7 seconds. This doesn't happen on 480p. I have 2GB RAM, maybe upgrade to 4GB RAM would fix this, not sure.
  6. Thanks Humming Owl, I really appreciate it. I'll see what I can do. I will have this in mind UCyborg, thanks.
  7. Hi @Humming Owl, this is what I get when I try to start v9 and v11 on Win XP Pro x86 SP2: I think v9 and v11 use a function that requires SP3, maybe if that function is removed it could work on SP2. I could be wrong.
  8. @dmiranda, thanks for the winmerge suggestion, seems promising. @UCyborg, I see, OK thanks. It's possible that such a program doesn't exist, and if it DOES exist maybe not many people know about it. Thanks guys.
  9. Thanks dmiranda, it seems like a great program. I tried to find 1111 in a .doc text document but unfortunately it couldn't find it. I think UCyborg is correct, I found an article saying that .docx and .pdf documents are binary (not plaintext), and that Notepad++ is an editor for plaintext files. https://community.notepad-plus-plus.org/topic/16178/faq-desk-why-does-my-docx-file-look-like-junk-in-notepad Can LibreOffice or OpenOffice successfully replace text in many .doc files at once? Or some other program?
  10. Hi UCyborg, I was looking for a program that can replace text in many files at once, Notepad++ was one of the recommended ones. If I try to replace a 3 letter word in a test .doc document: one to two it works OK. If I try to replace a 2 digit number in a test .doc document: 11 to 22 it works OK. If I try to replace a 1 digit number in a test .doc document: 1 to 2 it gets corrupted. If I try to replace a 4 digit number in my actual .doc document: 1111 to 2222 for some reason it can't replace it, which leads me to believe it can't detect the 1111 . To be honest, I really don't know why this happens. Do you think it's possible to successfully replace text in many .doc files at once with Notepad++? Or some other program?
  11. Thanks, I appreciate it. After you clicked Replace in Files, were you able to open both .doc files? Or they were corrupted and couldn't be opened? BTW, I found one more text program: Sublime Text.
  12. It seems like Notepad++ is still great. Can someone do a quick test for me in Notepad++? 1. make a New Folder 2. create two word documents inside: a.doc and b.doc, both containing the number 0, nothing else, just: 0 3. start Notepad++ > Search > Find in Files..., Directory - select the New Folder you created, Find what: 0, Replace with: 1, press "Replace in Files" 4. check if 0 is replaced with 1 in both files: a.doc and b.doc When I do this in Notepad++, both .doc files get corrupted and when I re-open them (after Recover) they are empty. Maybe I need some additional software for this to work properly, not sure. Can you tell me if this works properly for you?
  13. TextCrawler installer around 2.5 MB UltraEdit installer around 13 MB, not really lightweight X-SciTE zip around 2 MB Programmer's Notepad 2 MB PSPad 8 MB You never know which one will finish your specific task faster until you try a few. I don't have much experience with them but they were recommended to me among others when I was looking for a program that can replace text in more files at once. For some reason replacing letters worked OK but replacing numbers in .doc files didn't work with all programs including Notepad++, I haven't really investigated why that happens but I guess that is a topic for another time.
  14. @ArcticFoxie - No problem, I think @IXOYE also uses SP2 but not sure if it's x86 or x64. I started 360Chrome 13.0.1106.0\Chrome\Application\360chrome.exe and again BSOD.
  15. Hi ArcticFoxie, I just tested this 1106 version on x86 SP2 and got BSOD 3 times in a row when I try to start it: I didn't change any settings, just unpack and start X-360cse.exe .
  16. No problem, I thought since 360 Extreme Explorer versions 12 and 13 work OK on XP SP2, maybe something can be done to version 9.5 to make it work on XP SP2 also, edit or delete some .dll file, not sure ... It could be something very simple.
  17. I didn't install any extensions and didn't change any settings when I did the YouTube test with your 13.0.2250.0 modified version. I did the same YouTube test for 15 minutes with your 13.0.2206.0 modified version and there were no crashes, so I guess for YouTube 2206 seems a bit more stable than 2250 for now. I think the current RAM usage also plays a role in this but I could be wrong because I have't tested it much. 360 Extreme Explorer versions 12 and 13 work OK on Win XP Pro x86 SP2, but for some reason version 9 (including @Humming Owl's 9.5.0.138 modified version) doesn't work on Win XP Pro x86 SP2, it shows this when I start it: It shows the same with the default unmodified 9.5.0.138 version. Works OK in SP3 though. Is it possible to make version 9 work on Win XP Pro x86 SP2?
  18. ArcticFoxie, I tested on Asus S96J laptop, Intel Core Duo T2500 @ 2.0 GHz, 2 GB DDR2 PC2-5300 RAM (I plan to upgrade to 4GB RAM soon), Win XP Pro x86 SP2, original SP2 kernel, no updates (I only "update" if I really need it for a specific program). Here is how the test went with your 13.0.2250.0 modified version: Start browser, open youtube.com, play random video, after 10 seconds crashed with this message: I pressed OK, play another random video, this time it played with no problem for 10 minutes. Close browser, start browser again, open youtube.com, play another random video, after 12 seconds crashed again with same message. Not sure if the reason is my low RAM or something else. Do you want me to test the beta build 1006 or maybe try the modified 2206 first?
  19. Hi ArcticFoxie, I tried your 13.0.2250.0 modified version, works nice and fast, looks great and neat, but when I opened YouTube it crashed after 30 seconds, while I was browsing YouTube for 15 minutes it crashed 2 times total. It showed a pop-up box roughly saying: "browser crashed, do you want to restart?" Maybe it is my current hardware, not sure, but I don't remember YouTube crashing like this with any other browser I tried.
  20. Hi Sampei, if you think there is a small chance it can be fixed we can try to give some advice. I don't know what the problem is exactly. You think new Power supply could fix it? Or new Ram stick? Or new Hard Drive?
  21. Have you tried Manual System Restore? Manual System Restore: Make backup of the files first. Copy these 5 files: _REGISTRY_MACHINE_SAM, _REGISTRY_MACHINE_SECURITY, _REGISTRY_MACHINE_SOFTWARE, _REGISTRY_MACHINE_SYSTEM and _REGISTRY_USER_.DEFAULT from C:\System Volume Information\_restore{xx}\RPxx\snapshot to C:\WINDOWS\system32\config, rename all 5 files to: SAM, SECURITY, SOFTWARE, SYSTEM and DEFAULT, then reboot; I can't copy the files normally because they are in use so I used a Live CD. Is it possible to copy these 5 files while the system is working normally? Maybe with Command Prompt or Batch file?

  22. Thanks Rainy , I will check all of these. Yes jaclaz, very simple and true. Thanks, I'll check it out.
  23. Hi guys, I want to put a second HDD in my Laptop DVD Drive, I checked my DVD drive interface and it seems to be IDE: My local stores only have SATA to SATA. I did some searching but I couldn't find a Europe online store that sells this. I found some on Ebay but they are all from China and that will probably take a long time to arrive. Is there some Europe online store that I missed which could be selling this?
