Creating a Full-Blown Compatibility Layer.

Moreover, modded binaries are intrinsically unredistributable, so the only way to redistribute that without redistributing other peoples binaries is by using patch patterns.

And not only it's way more difficult to gain trust with patch patterns, but most people are resistant to using them at all. And, either way it requires disabling WFP or the like, at least for the file in question, which also is much resisted, nowadays...

I think I had said it before, but probably not in so many words.

@TuMaGoNx... I'll take a look at your code on GitHub next week (I'm kinda busy at work, right now) and I'll let you know.

I'm kinda curious about your own implementation now. ;)

@dibya... go ahead that way, but take a look to his project as well, as we may be able to collaborate all together, which would be awesome. ;)

Surely We can work togetha

You are correct. Windows XP is last most stable os. Here also Cyber cafe use xp . I asked why they do so they said windows 7/8 need to be reinstall in every month to keep in good shape where xp work flawlessly year after year with ccleaner and ultradefrag .

Well, not really an endorsement worth anything, any "public" machine (like the ones in Cybercafes, public libraries, and similar) should be ONLY setup with SteadySteate or DeepFreeze or similar.

Anything different from having the machine fully reset to a known state at each user change or - at the very least - daily would be a serious risk of compromising security or privacy of other users.

Would this Compatibility Layer maybe make the mod for AMD drivers you made work, or is this more focused on getting newer apps working, as opposed to drivers?

I am working hard on AMD Driver My friend . Do you won windows 8 32bit?(not 8.1)

I need some files.

First is to get app running next to get driver. Drivers are realy important but harder due to ntoskrnl branch dependencies.

For Windows 8.0 the drivers work fine (in fact, I made a thread explaining how to install the drivers on 8.0). Is that what you asked? I assume you said "Do you want windows 8 32bit?(not 8.1)"

Naaah, I was only try to convey the idea that not all endorsement/confirmations/recommendations are good/reliable.

Those that come from people that know where their towel is are generally useful, those coming from evidently clueless people maybe not so much.

Yeah I'm don't mean to endorse (just saying fact). XP of course less secure, every newer kernel is bound to be better. XP is the era when connectivity not (yet) assumed something that I appreciate (e.g. XP have offline documentation). Moreover with internet getting wilder, security expert even make Browser+VM bundle or at minimum Sandboxed, isn't that like not using OS to go online... make the value of secure OS and AV getting less and lesser. Once everything that run must be signed and certified and Win32 abandoned for walled garden framework, we can talk about secure Windows.
