I've got couple of updates posted: KB2393802 v19 kernel32.dll WTSGetActiveConsoleSessionId KB2508429 v11 advapi32.dll StopTraceA StopTraceW UpdateTraceA UpdateTraceW GetInheritanceSourceA GetLocalManagedApplicationData QueryTraceA QueryTraceW RegDisablePredefinedCacheEx RegDisablePredefinedCache upgraded to XP specs

Just a little heads-up...I updated KB2393802 and KB2508429 tonight that get Steam running on my PC. In a few days, if all is well, I'll post them...

Thanks for catching that. I updated the link so it points to the right version. I'll take a look at user32 when I get a chance (at present I need to add some things to kernel32.dll) I also posted KB2393802 v18, which adds some new API calls: halacpi.dll halmacpi.dll KeAcquireInStackQueuedSpinLock KeReleaseInStackQueuedSpinLock ntoskrnl.exe ntkrmlpa.exe ntkrnlmp.exe ktkrpamp.exe IoCsqInitialize IoCsqInsertIrp IoCsqRemoveIrp IoCsqRemoveNextIrp Since this is the first time I made any changes to hal.dll I held onto this one for quite a while to make sure it's okay. All seems good here, so I've decided to release it into the wild.

I finally got sick of Dependency Walker complaining about that one missing 9x API call in mpr.dll and decided to do something about it. Up now is KB2508429 v10, which adds the routine (it actually maps it to an existing one that appears to do the same thing). I'm still occasionally working on fixing my kernel32 rewrite; I found one tiny bug but that wasn't the one I'm looking for. I captured a big log yesterday from my VM and I'll take a look at it to see what it tells me.

That seems to have solved several problems, so here is a link to v3 of my kernel32 rewrite. Please keep the feedback coming! http://www.mediafire.com/download/aybbhy8pjzlyw8q/Windows2000-kernel32-rewrite-v3.zip

Good catch! I'm going to test it right now and see if this fixes some problems.

Do you still have those logs? I tried unzipping the file and I can't extract them. 7-zip can't extract it at all and ZipGenius only creates zero-length files

Thanks! Every little bit helps. Lately I've been crawling through backup.cpp tp try to fix some reported bugs. I definitely found one, but I haven't finished going through it. I tried fixing the bug when trying to install software and I really need help there. One thing I need to check is all calls to FsRtlxxx routines to make sure I'm using the right structures. On another note, I just posted KB2479628-v8. It adds stub support for these routines in user32.dll: RegisterRawInputDevices GetRawInputData GetRawInputDeviceInfoA GetRawInputDeviceInfoW GetRawInputDeviceList GetRawInputBuffer DefRawInputProc They're just stubs and return zero and/or failure where appropriate, but they let you use programs that import them, like the latest version of FreeCAD.

There appear to be multiple problems downloading and unpacking the split archive files for KB2393802-v17. I crawled through MediaFire's knowledge base and found something that is letting me upload the standard .exe installer again. Apparently my browser doesn't like their HTML5 uploader, and there is a setting to disable it. I updated the link on the main listing, and it should let you download a standard installer like earlier versions.

Below is the link to v1 of my kernel32 rewrite. It includes a VS2005 project, full source, and a compiled DLL. DO NOT INSTALL THIS ON YOUR MAIN SYSTEM I'm posting this because I've hit a wall on a bug and I need help Windows2000-kernel32-rewrite-v1.zip

I updated the file and the link. Bear in mind that it's a split archive: you only have to extract from Windows2000-KB2393802-v17-x86-ENU.zip and it will extract from both files.

Well, I finally managed to get KB2393802 v17 uploaded. I've been trying to get this posted for months. It turns out that MediaFire is imposing a file size limit, and I had to upload it as a pair of ZIP files. The update includes the netman.dll and secur32.dll fixes I posted about in another thread. I'm still stumped as to the bug in my kernel32 rewrite. Maybe tomorrow I'll post it plus the full source.

That would help a lot. I'm having a problem hunting down a bug that I see in the VM when trying to open an app in WinDbg. I'm trying somethng simple (calc.exe). The bug is that the debugger starts calc at an invalid address. On another issue, is anyone having problems uploading to Mediafire? I have a v17 of MS11-011 but I've been unable to upload it.. It keeps failing with a -503 permissions error. I deleted some old versions to free up some space in case it was a folder size problem, but that hasn't helped.
