Yes all offical updates. I have not tried extended kernel yet to vista

I got Vista Ultimate x64 running on old dell M6400 mobile workstation. Specs: Core2duo X9100,2x4gb ddr3, Nvidia Quadro 3700M 1gb, 17" 1920x1200 glass panel, backlit keyboard and dock with 230w power brick. For hard drives got 160gb wd scorpio black for OS and 320gb wd scorpio blue for games/software. It runs vista because last user had upgraded Windows vista business on it to ultimate and he gave me install dvd with packaging so wanted give it a shot. After fresh install and updates it ran pretty well. I use Mypal web browser on it. That machine is very fast on up to date vista and got excellent panel for laptop.

Works using MyPal browser under xp32

Ok first of all nobody here will provide you iso file of Windows XP since it will break board rules. You need have your own genuine copy on cd from it and genuine key. Second if you have genuine Windows xp cd I can guide you to slipstream possibly drivers. Otherwise wont. What is your laptop model, what chipset it uses? I can help you find drivers that you can slipstream using Nlite yourself.

that could work possibly and could automate it to add repeating it on reboot until ready to stop.

Most of those wont slipstream using ntlite and been trying find order where should install them using script and when should reboot.

As you know windows update for Windows 2000/XP/Vista has been shut down and updates no longer cannot be installed that way. Before update servers went offline I managed to backup finnish localised updates using portable updates but unfortunately noticed that tool no longer wants to install patches on XP. I still got folder full of localised updates but no practical way installing them. I would need install ALL updates I have backed up to few windows xp clients. For english version there is sp4 but for finnish version there no aio update so what would be best way install them?

Yes I have and all updates to netfx 4 I think (cannot be 100% sure since windows update is gone)

It is not working on mine (Windows xp professional sp3 with pos ready updates). Says current os is not supported

I found online installer only first until checked wayback machine and found this to full offline installer https://web.archive.org/web/20190502052352/http://cdn.download.comodo.com/cis/download/installs/1000/standalone/cispremium_only_installer.exe that been using to load comodo on all of my xp/vista machines just in case comodo deletes files from servers breaking online installer

I got Windows 7 on radeon rx 580 8gb. Are you sure you downloaded right driver? I got Adrenalin 2020 Edition 20.4.2 Recommended (WHQL) on mine. Try those and see if that is the issue

Audacity 2.4.2 no longer got official win7 support (source https://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Windows_7_OS) but it still starts and works fine using portable or installer versions

I use Comodo Internet security 12.0.0.6818 which is last to Windows XP/Vista even site claims latest one works. Comodo is not to everyone. It definitions are not top of range. You need enable hips and others and tweak to make it work well. For network security you can do it on network level. Sometimes even router own firewall is good enough as long as you disable vurneable features like UPNP and other automatic port share features

1. No 2. No 3. Reason is that windows 10 is service and need mandotary forced updates. Up to windows 8.1 I was able delay updates until had time to patch and possibly troubleshoot broken stuff. Second is win10 keep changing too much. My Asus P4P800 mainboard worked all way trough every windows xp service packs using same old drivers while win10 stopped working on my intel atom based system on one update. And I am slowly moving to linux

Do you have Speedstep, CStates and C1E enabled in bios and do you have latest bios? Those three options controls idle and lower cpu states on Intel processors

I desired use different approach and used Windows media player 9 series + ffdshow beta6 rev2527 and Combined Community Codec Pack (dated 2010-10-10) on my windows 2000 laptop that have Pentium M and intel gma 900. With those I can play all of my downloaded/existing video files pretty even 720p ones no lag at all. Those codecs works media players 7-9 under windows 2000 vanilla on my tests.

If you need latest offical win2000 nvidia driver you can use this https://www.helpjet.net/dl/47677297-83974762-53425856/76952134/NVIDIA_169.06_Win2KXP.zip that had support up to 8xxx series under win2k.

What power profile you use? Balanced, power saving or high performance? If high performance try set minium cpu state to 1-5% instead of 100%. That caused R7 2700X run hot and full clock speed on me with windows 7

Only way I have found to download updates to vista now is to use Wsusoffline. Few weeks ago, xp, windows 2000 and windows vista updates stopped working atleast on my end. I got backup of localised updates to win2000 and XP but not to vista.
