  1. Most of these claims of 'hard to unpack' are coming from those that have never tried... y0da is just a little harder than UPX. Of course it's hard for those that don't know anything about unpacking!y0da has a resource leak BTW: http://www.wintellect.com/Articles/Yoda.pdf
  2. Also, what is the monitor and how old is it?
  3. Excellent write-up on the details of the Windows 9x setup distro package FYI 1,802,240 (1.72M) is actually the capacity of an obscure floppy format that Micro$oft created, but it was found that some floppy drives could not read it, so it was abandoned. I have attempted to recreate this format, and my floppy drives can read and format it fine, but other drives may have problems with 84 tracks. Volume XTDTOOLS created 04-07-2004 4:16p Volume Serial Number is CF64-C47A 1,802,240 bytes total disk space 1,802,240 bytes available on disk 32,768 bytes in each allocation unit 55 total allocation units on disk 55 available allocation units on diskThe exact parameters are 84 tracks and 21 sectors/track, 32k cluster size, one root directory sector, two fat sectors.
  4. Wow, thread revival. On-topic of PCI-E chipsets, I've heard that any 900-series integrated graphics from Intel is backwards compatible with the i810 chipset and that using the 810 driver should work. I recently tried the SciTech driver for my video card (nVidia FX5200) and cannot recommend them at all. This is only an AGP card, but upon installing the driver and rebooting, all I get is a black screen when it's supposed to initialise the video. The same happened with my other computer (865 chipset) and SciTech's driver. If they can't even manage to make these rather well-known and aged chipsets work, I'm not too trusting them to make the newer ones do.
  5. It appears that You still have an overheating problem - 67° and not even at full load (CPU is near idle when you're just looking at webpages). The heatsink surface actually has to be in contact with the CPU die; it can be clipped on but actually is skewed, resulting in very little contact surface. If the heatsink is seated firmly and square on the CPU, and leaving the case off eliminates the problem, then your case ventilation is not sufficient.
  6. What, 26 drives isn't enough? The standard PC can only have 4 hard drives, up to 2Tb each. I doubt a Win98se user would need 8 terabytes of on-line storage anyway!
  7. ...Windows ME uses DOS 8.0 which actually has reduced functionality over 7.1.
  8. Run MemTest86+ on the machine for a few hours to check the RAM. Marginal RAM will fail easily, and the XP installation seems to stress the RAM more than usual.
  9. i810 integrated graphics are usually quite reliable... they don't overheat like the higher performance cards. I'm thinking this might be more of a processor overheating problem. Try cleaning the heatsink/fan.
  10. Can't use a DVD instead?
  11. What are the temperatures? You could try reinstalling the driver...
  12. Tools -> Internet Options -> Security Ensure setting "File Downloads" for Internet zone is enabled.
  13. Indeed, it looks cool at first but the fancy effects just get tiresome later.
  14. Requires Javascript to upload Why can't they just make it simple and use HTTP POST
  15. Tunnel UDP over TCP? Most of the ones I've found are written in Java http://freshmeat.net/projects/udptunnel/ http://tunnel.mrq3.com/ Here is a better one, meant for Unix but only source code available so it shouldn't be too hard to port to Windows http://www1.cs.columbia.edu/~lennox/udptunnel/
  16. Run MemTest86+ on the machine for a few hours. It might be a problem with your RAM.
  17. I've installed XP on a Pentium 166 with 64Mb of RAM. Even with all the unnecessary services disabled, it's still quite sluggish. Linux isn't that fast either. XP will definitely run on your machine, but it would probably perform better with Win98se.
  18. http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/visualcsharp/ Free, courtesy of Micro$oft. Don't ask why it's so bloated though...
  19. Try the "Portfree Production Program" v3.27 low-level USB formatter. There are fake Sandisk Cruzer Micro USB drives out there BTW. Your "1Gb" drive might actually be a fake 256Mb or 128Mb one.
  20. Why don't I just write one for you right now? mov es ax es mov al [h417] and al 3 mov ah h4c int h21 Return is nonzero if the shift key was held down, otherwise zero. 12 little bytes. I don't think it can get any smaller than that (Remove .txt extension from attachment, it doesn't like the .com extension and ZIP'ing a 12-byte file is pointless.) SHIFTKEY.COM.txt
  21. MS-DOS 6.2 is not recommended, since it does NOT support FAT32 drives. The recommended version is MS-DOS 7.1. Either way, all you need is the IO.SYS, MSDOS.SYS and COMMAND.COM files. The boot sector can come from any floppy (they should all have one when formatted).
  22. Paid Micro$oft.
  23. ...doesn't Tablet PC edition already come with support for touch screens? Here are the drivers for your machine: http://www.oqo.com/support/downloads/drivers/

    Nasty Artifacts

    Ensure the heatsink is affixed firmly and making good contact with the GPU serface. Thermal compound in the joint is recommended.
  25. That is normal, some space is occupied by filesystem tables after formatting.
