Windows 7 32bit will be fine on that netbook with bit of tweaking. First disable automatic system updates (never check for updates). For gma there is modified intel driver that will improve performance (not going link it here since may break msfn rules). I have slower netbook with gma 950 and windows 7 32bit runs well on 2gb of ram, aero enabled. For browser I use Roytam1 Newmoon that is basically palemoon and only sites causing issues to me is youtube thanks to new layout. You can improve performance by forcing mobile user agent that renders sites on lightweight mobile version

Sounds exactly my problem. I really tried enjoy using win10 as main os but kept having issues constantly. I do not want os force updates tom. I do not want worry every system update breaking apps or drivers. I got few laptops that are unable run win10 properly anymore due drivers. Also win10 is mess on changing settings. On windows 7 I had control panel (basic settings) and Group policy editor (advanced windows/app settings). Win10 got two control panel and need change between them and whole UI feels like touch screen, it got ads. I downgraded windows 7 and never looked back again I have desired run windows 7 as long as can which is quite long considering even windows 95 is somewhat usable today with some tweaking despite being over 25 years old. I use firefox esr version since will likely recieve updates longer than rapid release. I got linux mint on dualboot with it. Nothing wrong on using windows 7 or older. You do not need always get "the latest and greatest" os. And windows 7 is useful still atleast on me. I got windows 10 on non networked vm for some purposes so no need dualboot or restore image For security side of things most sayings about viruses will flood win7 system are FUD. I am not saying it is risk free but viruses wont just attack since todays security is made on network level. Back in XP days ADSL/ISDN/Dialup operators gave every computer public IP address. That increased risk of attack by lot and I have gotten lot of worms. Nowadays you many times wont even get one public IP (behind operator level NAT many times) and generally you are behind router firewall and NAT. You just need good network firewall between your local area network and internet. Most modern routers got sufficent ones and something like openwrt or pfsense will improve it a lot. Also disable router remote management, disable UPNP, disable VPS for wifi and change wifi and admin panel passwords and you are good to go. I also got pihole that got constantly updating blacklist of malicious domains. And for browser security I use firefox with ublock origin and noscript. Noscript saved me many times from attacks. If want harden on os level I would use Comodo antivirus HIPS feature or OSarmor (only if you know or want learn how setup process rules). Also keep backup of important files on external hdd. Then most important part of security is use of common sense. No av or update will protect from end user mistakes always. All that being said, if you want keep windows 7 go ahead and keep it. You are one of many users and atleast on MSFN you will get help if get issues with it. Windows 7 will have long life on power users who are not afraid to tweak their OS.

Ok. Seems things have changed on gmail. Old way no longer works this mehtod will work. I just tested. To setup app password (I assume you got 2fa enabled go to account settings>security>application passwords. On pic proof it works. Cencored my name and email address for obvious reason but can see sent with attachment. here what you need configure imap (incoming mail address imap.gmail.com port 993) and smpt (outgoing mail address smtp.gmail.com port 465). TLS (port 587) wont work anymore for outgoing mail so you need use ssl port. I know pics are finnish but I got finnish Office XP installed. If you got any problems let me know

They may have had corrected issue on newer processors. I have only played with windows 7 up to AMD Ryzen 2xxx series and Intel Coffee lake cpu only which both had same issue so cannot say for sure

I have tried multiple driver versions and issue is either on mainboard or agp gpu. NT4 works on pci e variant of same gpu. I guess driver is not compatible with agp

If it is old hdd drive electronic might be failing. I have had multiple older hard drives doing that. Took forever to boot and kept locking up even on fresh install of xp even with 4gb of ram. All tests showed drive was fine and was not defragmented. I replaced drive electronics on one and issue went away. For easier way I would buy new hdd unless got second broken hdd that is exactly same as original and you know how swap it. Also like WalksInSilence you may need more ram.

You might want disable some of power management options like pci power saving or you may experience blackscreening. I turned off all power saving could and problem went away

I use desktop shortcut to shutdown my computer that taskkills steam automatically then shut pc down. Same problem as on you, I tried force app hung time down, but it was not fixing issue. It eventually turns off otherwise but takes few minutes.

I disagree with this one. I got athlon64 that lacks sse3 but does very decently as guest pc with windows 7. Modern sites produce no issues with it (expect new youtube layout). Some peoples even use win95 today and I see no problem on that.

Thank you. That was exactly what I was looking for

What error did it throw to you?

You can easily fix it by going to view settings on windows explorer (not ie) and selecting browse folders on same window instead of launch folder on seperate windows

Did you got it work? Also should install internet explorer 8 and use pos ready update trick to install TLS 1.1 and TLS 1.2 support. You can download update needed from Windows update catalog. It is called Cumulative Update for Internet Explorer 8 for WES09 and POSReady 2009 (KB4316682). Just click download and download one for your language. This is needed due Gmail cannot verify password using ie6 and tls. It says site cannot be viewed otherwise. You need do that auth step too and then Outlook should log you in. Also you may need update root certifcates and have latest updates to outlook 2003

I would say 8/10 for fully patched vanilla windows 2000 and 9/10 to one with extended kernel. I am running win2000 vanilla on Fujitsu Siemens lifebook c1320 (2.00ghz Pentium M, 1gb ram, gma 900, 14" 1280x800 display 160gb hdd achi mode). For browser I use Palemoon 26.5 for win2000 (from this forum) with noscript and ublock origin and until lately it could play youtube. I got codecs so can play all of my movie files on it and browser web wirelessly (boingo client to wpa2), for games I got lot older titles that some needed appcompat tool. What is funny back in day I said I will never play games on win2000 since it cannot run them properly. How wrong I was on that. And for messaging I can use escargot MSN messenger 4.5, for office older openoffice and office xp. That is just surface scratch what all I have done on vanilla win2000. For non vanilla I am currently looking create core2duo/nvidia 8xxx config to win2k. Only tried extended kernel on vmware where had promising results

Odd. You sure version number on exe properties was 6818?

I got outlook 2002 but config should look like that. Replace mattimeikalainen (fake email I use on examples) with yours, then for advanced settings set incoming port to 993 and check force tls/ssl and incoming port to 465 (if ssl) and you should be able connect

You need enable login to insecure applications or create app password like showed here . I recommend try first mentioned before seperate password since that may not work. Then during outlook setup select IMAP and do steps here to configure traffic. Those step should work. Try tls first if not try ssl

Seems protection to that is same as to many other attacks. Do not enable macros on word unless trust document 100%

You do not need firewall lot if got properly secured lan. Proper non upnp firewall on router does good job keeping outside intruders off. Software firewall helps if worm hijacks system on internal network to minimise damage. But outside it on those free wifi networks it can be bad unless vpn and firewall.

Thanks need try that guide and see if works

Legendary flip phones. That is quite nice. Got 3g and others. Might be getting one of those some point

I have tried connect my friend nokia 6.1 and one Pixel phone and both did not work until modified google own drivers to work with it. What prequites is needed other than media player 11 and have you tried on newer android phones

https://www.gsmarena.com/nokia_6600-454.php I forgot dot to end of it. By new meant android based smartphones that crippled old mass storage device off in favour of mtp.

I got original from 2003 that is smartphone too https://www.gsmarena.com/nokia_6600-454.php for newer smartphones need make custom driver due mtp on xp. Only some low end samsungs got offical drivers to xp. In comparisation that got official suite down to win98 just need bluetooth or ir.

Need hope on future wont need. I am fine on english os but just like finnish one since nostalgia with it
