The incorrect size SP1 appears because the OS is missing a pre-requisite. What that kb is, I have only determined by process of elimination. In other words, it is too much work for me to bother with, because the update that makes it go away can be different.

News for these types of things are usually responsible. I think for the past few major "finds" as they are called (this one is known as The Texas Find) have not shown up on news websites until after the cards have been acquired by a third party or auction house. I'm not sure how big of news story it would be if it was to be found out he had a large collection when he was alive. Many people have collections of this size, either publicly or privately. So when this news broke, it was just "kind of neat" but not really newsworthy to me. In fact, the Daily Mail article is only really writing about the fact that the items are currently up for auction. There is nothing special about the collection itself, other than the whole chance meeting being a feel good story.

Games usually will install the ones they need by themselves. It really depends on the application, whether both are needed or not.

As up and up today and "now now now" that the internet news cycle is, we still have these instances where a news story doesn't show up for a couple of months for whatever reason. https://lotgauctions.wordpress.com/2016/03/13/an-incredible-find/

I have not seen that movie in a long time. I had no idea.

Windows2000User is now LightAlpha263

End of support/life date doesn't mean anything to me. I still run Windows 98 and XP computers personally. End of sale means that my day-to-day work with the OS is going to stop. Windows 7 will go away for me, work-wise, in around 6 months or so unless something changes.

There is a way but it takes you off the index. Below the status update text ( or truncated if too long) is a timestamp. If you click that then it will take you to the full status update on the user's profile page. submix8c Way past Beer:30... Saturday at 6:33 PM · 0 replies <--- click the date/time part If you click that timestamp it will take you to the user profile showing the full status update. There doesn't seem to be a way to expand the update on the index part and remain on the forum index.

Too little too late. Windows 7 goes end of sale in less than a month, and oh MS finally gives people what they've been asking for for years.

It is really just another case of being like Mac:

Wouldn't it make more sense to make a wrapper for these functions instead of trying to modify kernel32 directly? Let us say that one day, @Dibya (or someone else) makes these required changes and XP will become more open. The problem then is that it is illegal to redistribute a Windows OS file. The only way you could release such a thing would be to either create a wrapper, or a program that patches the required changes for a user, or to provide exact instructions on how to do it.

Update: @submix8c is still a Gold Patron. And I can see the Patron group also, I must have missed it before (it is a different color to me). I think it was previously set up in levels, where your contibution amount would set which group you would be in. We will wait to find out if this is due to one of the original tier groups having been renamed in an update, which might be what happened.

I split this to a new thread. I can confirm that the member group previously called Sponsor is now called Subscriber. Also, the levels of Sponsor group are gone as well. The amount of members in the current 'Subscriber' group does not appear to be correct. If you know anyone who was a Sponsor previously and now has a regular member group title previously, post it in this thread.

The settings option is a menu choice, however it is only a shortcut to a url. I would wonder if you could open a new tab and then manually go to that URL? I believe it was chrome://settings/

I had to recently switch to Skype when MS decided to shut out the third party access to MSN Messenger a couple years ago. It was fine, even if it uses more RAM than IE does. But it along with anything else, doesn't get updated. The only issue is that if you disable updates, Skype will still download its update but constantly bug you with approving to install it. There is no option to not do updates. I'm still on version 7.16.0.102. If it were possible to use an old version without any bells and whistles, I certainly would. I only need to for IM purposes.

Your situation is not unique, the one where you have a problem with your code but cannot post it. So what you need to is replicate the portion that is failing. You do this in preparation to be posted online. A cleaned version of the code (as likely the failing portion is not a unique discovery you have made) that will exhibit the problems you are seeing, but without having all the extra stuff your program does. (I can interject that your program should be built like this already) Often when I have to do this, 90% of the time I will find the problem on my own. Or I will hit the issue where the PoC code works but the original doesn't. Having a working vs non-working set is a great thing. But if after this exercise, your PoC code still does not work properly, you can post it online without worry of sharing sensitive information.

There are some instances where you cannot use Windows 7 on PCI-E storage. For this one, you need to verify Secure Boot is disabled. Also you will need the mass-storage driver for Windows 7. For the driver you got from Windows 8.1, what was the filename and/or hardware ID?

I am not able to recreate the crash.

Concerning SRWare Iron, were the full installed used or portable versions?

Topic split. Edit the title as appropriate. A good start would be to use ProcMon to record what is done. You'll want to create a log for each scenario: - old version - new version Whereas in each, you must determine the same amount of steps to the crash. So if doing x in new version causes the crash, then do the same exact steps in the old one. Then *maybe* it can be determined what is different. There is an inherent problem with this approach, it may require multiple retesting. I may be able to try to recreate it myself later in the week.

I currently have no need of Windows 10 for anything. Before building my new computer, I had checked and there was no games that absolutely required Windows 10 or DX12. Also, I am not a fan of doing in-place upgrades on OSes. They always seem to be a headache in one way or another.

My first thought was that perhaps these programs need this update: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3118401 Which is in the first post list. After going through the list, there seems to be 4 types of updates: 1. updates that help the OS upgrade to 10 2. updates that add telemetry 3. updates that update Windows Update 4. updates that allow "windows 10 programs" to run on earlier OSes. That last one I think needs to be scrutinized, as most software writers are not making a Windows 7 vs Windows 10 version of their software. They are just making a Windows version. So some of these updates that fit into the fourth category may be required eventually as software makers add Windows 10 support to their Windows software.
