OK, I tried a straight substitution, and to nobody's surprise I'm sure, I just got an A5 BSOD! I then tried a new install, putting the new acpi.sys file into \sources\$OEM$\$$\system32\drivers. Still an A5 BSOD on every option except 'Standard PC'. One strange thing though is that after the install, the \sources\$OEM$\$$\system32\drivers folder is empty. Shouldn't the file still be in there @George King?

At the moment the machine is an 'Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) PC' in Device Manager. The only other option offered is 'Standard PC', but I do remember doing a registry hack before to return the other options. I'll give that a try first and if that doesn't work I will do another install from scratch with George's latest package.

I think we discussed this before @Dietmar. You had a modified BIOS for a Flex 10, but it wasn't compatible with my processor. I must say this does look very complicated!

OK, thanks very much. Do I have to do a complete new install, or can I just change the file on the existing installation and then try changing the machine type?

Which one, there seem to be so many?! FWIW the attached is the one I'm using at the moment, which has given the best result. The (many) others I've tried just BSOD or will only allow an installation as a Standard PC. acpi.sys

Yes, I was going to say that I had been assuming that the latest versions of acpi.sys were being included in the packages that I'd been experimenting with with George.

I've been trying with @George Kingto get an install of XP onto a Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 10 netbook. Unfortunately, the BIOS is very XP unfriendly (the machine was designed for Windows 8). I want to dual boot XP and Windows 10. Windows 10 is fine of course, but on XP the nearest I've got is installing as a single processor ACPI PC, so it's only using one of the two processor cores. There are multiple entries in the event log on every boot saying that there are no resources available for some of the hardware, including the audio hardware, so I have no sound. George's packages work but will only install as a standard PC, anything else gives a 0xA5 BSOD (none-compliant BIOS). I've tried lots of versions of ACPI.SYS, but none have worked. George has recommended that I ask here to see if this can be debugged and whether any progress can be made. I have been referred to a hacked version of the BIOS, but unfortunately it isn't compatible with my processor. I also still want to dual boot with Windows 10, so I don't want to compromise that. Thanks, Dave.

Thanks for the heads up!

Thanks, that looks great. When you need a beta tester, you know where to ask! Cheers, Dave.

These are all the folders I have in my 360Chrome profile, nowhere near the number that you seem to have!

There is no DailyBackup file or folder on my system. Anyway, I don't want to disable the history, I just find out why it doesn't seem to be working properly.

Yes, with hindsight I think I should have gone a bit further than I did! I did use 7-zip to extract the installation file from the package I downloaded, but I then just ran that. What I should have done is then use 7-zip again on the installation file and just used the extracted files! I'll certainly remember next time!

Is anyone else seeing this strange thing with the browser history on 13.5? I cannot see today's entries (for the 28th). The 27th, which is labelled today, is actually yesterday! Also, a number of days' entries are doubled up, the two entries for the same date seem to be exact duplicates.

LOL, I thought someone would immediately say that! I thought it would be ArcticFoxie himself, I'm sure he's of the same opinion!

That's a shame, as it means that the browser isn't completely portable. You can't just use it from a memory stick in different machines for instance and still have all your passwords remembered.

It looks pretty much the same to me, with the addition of the flags. I don't think @Humming Owlwas going to do anything else.

That looks really complicated! I have copied my 360Chrome 13.5 to another machine, but as it's a portable installation the profile is contained in the same folder as the program files, which avoids the main complication. I have found that if I do that the remembered passwords no longer work though. Is this because the encryption of the password store is tied to a particular machine and can't be moved without it stopping working? That would make sense, as it would be a big security risk if that were not the case.

At 22000.651 (or maybe even earlier) it is not possible to configure the taskbar, so that it is black and at the same time there are readable hours and other icons in the tria. In Windows on the desktop, I chose a simple continuous black background, but if I am a transparent panel in Startallback, then it still remains gray. Is it possible to somehow fix it or now nothing will be done with this? (In earlier builds, the 11 Panel of Tasks was normally configured, so that it was, as in 10) Thank you for your understanding, and welcome to MSFN! Спасибо за понимание и добро пожаловать в MSFN!

That works brilliantly, really clear, and with all the flags supported! Thank you so much!

I've no intention of installing it again to find out!

Well I can say from bitter personal experience that the Chinese installer certainly does make the browser the default browser. I installed the new 13.6 version a couple of days ago, mainly to see if the version of Chromium had gone up (it hadn't) and it made itself the default browser without being asked, and installed a load of other crap on my system too!

Might well be because it's a portable version. Most browsers can't be made the default browser if they are installed as a portable standalone installation. It's something the setup installer does on a normal install, registering it as a browser with the operating system.

Thanks, that would be great!

If you run 360Loader.exe, it loads the browser with the switches and commands which are listed in 360Loader.ini. If you just run 360Chrome.exe, it doesn't. The 360Loader.ini contents have been determined by @NotHereToPlayGames/ArcticFoxie as being the best conditions to run the browser in.
