  1. Would you know a way I could remove the WMI drivers (WMIDRV.SYS and WMILIB.SYS) from Window ME without breaking the ability to connect to the internet ?
  2. Other version of that driver which works under win 98 (Thanks jaclaz) ftp://62.76.7.214/pub/win/ext2/fsdext2_0163source.zip
  3. Source code for an ext2 file system driver : FSDEXT2 - Second extended file system for Windows 95 : http://www.yipton.net/fsdext2/src.zip
  4. With regards to boot freeze issues, I can report that I have reduced considerably their occurences by enabling bootlog. I have failed booting just once out of around 20 boots since I have enabled it. Does not make much sense to me but here you got the information anyway.
  5. I am surprised Norton Disk Doctor is so limited compared to Scandisk. Anyway excellent information You are mentioning Disk Doctor of higher version than the one in Systemworks 2005. I was thinking this was the last version compatible with 9x systems. Is this incorrect ?
  6. AFAIK it can only be used if you run Windows 98 from a HD to repair another HD, but never if you only have a single HD. If you try it under dualboot and two XP primary partitions, as explained in this tutorial, Windows 98 doesn't work any more as soon as you convert to NTFS any of both XP units. I was under the impression it could be used under any configuration apart from running the 9x system on NTFS of course.
  7. Well if you get to know how I can remove the WMI drivers (WMILIB.SYS and WMIDRV.SYS) from Windows ME without breaking the ability to connect to a network let me know.
  8. I am guessing RapidInstall could be your friend for doing that.
  9. BTW Paragon NTFS for Windows 95, 98 and ME is free in case anyone is interested. I am not sure this has already been mentioned. I can't comment on it as I have not tested it. http://www.paragon-software.com/home/ntfs-win98/
  10. There are four shell folder keys in your registry : HKLM Shell Folders HKLM User Shell Folders HKCU Shell Folders HKCU User Shell Folders You could change the location of your desktop with TweakUI and monitor the registry changes with Regshot or look in the keys I have indicated.
  11. Dude, your hack is a very minor little thing. If you are getting banned it is because you are acting stupid a bit too much and not because you do better products than Microsoft FYI there are two big projects here, KernelEx and Revolution Pack which may actually qualify for your definition of "making better products than them". They have been here for years and it does not look like they are going to be banned anytime.

  13. Perhaps this is also of interest although it is geared at not writing a driver.

  21. You could use Another Task Manager if you want to suspend threads. ftp://ftp.elf.stuba.sk/pub/pc/utiltask/atm22.zip
  22. You are not very good at googling or am I wrong ? http://home.icequake.net/~nemesis/linuxlap...c/tp-stuff/360/
  23. You've written a system file checker in vbs if I am not mistaken. Why don't you run it on the windows/system dirs after you install something ? I am using that one for doing this systematically, it is very fast. http://www.xs4all.nl/~hneel/software/syslog.zip Glad you got it sorted anyway.
