KernelEx for Win2000


Recommended Posts


Hey @blackwingcat

First things first: thank you for making it possible to extend the windows 2000's kernel.

I  need to ask you for a word of advice:

What do you recommend to be the order to install your EXKernel versions?

I've installed it by random order v5, v7, v18, v22 but when I installed v29 it broke my system and complained about mscvcp60.dll, so I downloaded it and put it on system32, then I was able to use the system but it was all messed up, like I could not access the Network Connections in Control Panel and Active Desktop features were also messed up, so I'm thinking about installing the system once again.

Can I ignore all the previous versions and install just the 29b exkernel? Does it contains all the previous patches? 

 So the all the process could be described as:

- Install win2k

- Install win2ksp4

- Install Windows Installer 3.0

- Install IE6.0SP1

- Install IE6.0SP1-Commulative Updates

- Install BWC's ExKernel 2.9b

 

Am I on the right track?

Besides when I try to install firefox52esr it complains about supporting only XP and above. How can I passthrough?

Thank you and sorry for the TL;DR text

You should install only the latest extended kernel. Indeed, every succeeding version contains the previous version's patches.

Hi, caiot5

 

I recomend v2.8, because  some people complain the bugs.

But they have not given me enough information , so I can not fix it.

Does mscvcp60.dll problem mean  "only broken the file "?

Extended kernel can install overwrite privious version.

But previous version does not have enough files , so remain some extended file and they effect  your system.

(I allow you install v2.8c  after v2.8e. But It seems to have problem that you install v2.7 after v2.8.)

 

>Am I on the right track?

That is bad :3

ExKernel requires you completed all important Windows 2000 Update.

For example , I think Application and Program in Control Panel should broken.

Is there any chance you could make a version of KEx that would work with a polish version of W2000? I tried the english one but it didn't want to install.

Hi,Tamris.

 

Will you  accept  exKernel v10 ?  

More recent  version would cost too much  :3

Yeah, the Application and Programs in Control Panel is broken indeed. Starting with exKernel v22, I have multiple issues with the system, e.g. I can't see the network connections, etc.

Can you please tell me the step-by-step proccess of how to get the latest exKernel working correctly?

- Install win2k

- Install win2ksp4

- Install Windows Installer 3.0

- Install IE6.0SP1

- Install IE6.0SP1-Commulative Updates

What else need I to install/update BEFORE exkernel v28 installation?

 

Thank you!

Thanks for your answer @blackwingcat

What about the regular Service Pack 4? Do I need to install it aswell or may I stick with your guidelines and install just the SRP1v2 ?

Nevermind. Found that in order to install SRP1v2 I must have SP4 already installed.
I'm trying to follow your step-by-step guide right now.

Thank you again.

Do you think Internet Explorer 7 and 8 would be possible with this? I would think so if we backport some XP/Vista files. If we end up having to backport Vista files, then maybe IE 9 would work since that is supported on Vista.
