Last Version of Programs for Windows NT 4.0

[ppgrainbow]

I would like to point out that if you want to install VMware Workstation 4.5 (VMware-workstation-4.5.3-19414) when running under Windows NT 4.0 on VMware Workstation Player/Pro, you must add the following line in your VMX file:

monitor_control.restrict_backdoor = "TRUE"

If the monitor_control.restrict_backdoor parameter is set to FALSE or if it's not present, VMware Workstation 4.5 will refuse to install or run.

Has anyone gotten Conectix Virtual PC v5.2 build 418 to work under Windows NT 4.0?

I tried to run the emulation window and Virtual PC v5.2 crashed with a Illegal Instruction 0cC000001D error when running it under VMware Workstation Player 16.1.2.

Update: In order to get Connectix Virtual PC v5.2 build 418 working under Windows NT 4.0, I had to install roytam1's patched Windows NT SSE driver that can be found here. I ran the nt4sse.reg to get it to work and replace the intlfxsr.sys driver with a newer version. More information about it can be found here: https://www.betaarchive.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=28694

Without the patched SSE driver, Virtual PC v5.1 build 370 is the last version that will work under Windows NT 4.0 on a PC without SSE support.

I would also like to add that Rainmeter 0.12 was the last to support Windows NT 4.0 along with Windows 98 and Windows Millennium Edition: http://modules.shellfront.org/rainmeter-0.12.zip

I don't know if I'm correct, but I would like to point out that Pixia v3.3b is the last to support Windows NT 4.0. I don't know about Windows 95, Windows 98 or Windows Me.

I had to install Pixia v3.1 first and then update to Pixia v3.3b. The files names are pix31je.exe and pix33be.exe.

By the way, does anyone have idea which version of Blender is the last to support Windows NT 4.0? I currently have v2.2.8 installed.

Maybe...I am looking for someone to pin it since nobody knows.

Blender v2.45 is the last version to run on Windows NT 4.0.

v2.46 and higher are installable, but throw out a "blender.exe is not a vaild Windows NT application." error upon launch.

Thank you for telling me. I'll probably install Blender 2.45 to see if it will work under Windows NT 4.0.

> DOSBox 0.74-3

Note that the "Active Desktop" update is needed in order to run DOSBox under NT4 , or you will get  :

The procedure entry point shGetSpecialFolderPathA could not be located in the dynamic link library shell32.dll

 

So you need to install at first the darn IE4* (with Active Desktop) then the DOSBox

*IE4 wont be installed if you already have another higher version of the iE so uninstall any other -higher- versions then install the ie4 with Active Desktop
