This version of Firefox requires Microsoft Windows 7 x64 or newer. Please click the OK button for additional information." @thepwrtank18 You need to spoof the OS, or spoof the installer itself to install Firefox.

You need to create osver.ini file, and then put it in C:\Windows before you can spoof. Have you created that file first? What Extended Kernel version you have installed?

bromogatos309 Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 Hello again ! @win32 I need your help if you have some time. I tried you 398.11 driver on Windows Vista with Extended kernel installed on a GT1030 , which from my understanding is now somewhat supported. Although when I rebooted I ran into the frozen 'orb' . I tried unistalling and installing again , but with no effect. Then someone suggested to mod myself a 382.xx driver (maybe that could work) and said to ask you what should I exactly mod. I have the GDDR5 version of the GT1030. So can you please help mod the driver I need to get the GPU to work ? Sorry if this is not the topic to ask here , but I couldn't re-create one myself because I ran into some kind of error. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry if this is not the topic to ask here , but I couldn't re-create one myself because I ran into some kind of error. The 38x drivers actually added a function that was removed from the 39x versions, which I did not add yet. Oddly enough I do have notes about 382/384 drivers, which apparently reached a black screen instead of outright crashing (or producing an orb). I suppose I could add it soon. The orb may be caused by conflicts with other drivers. Do you have a discrete NIC and/or are you using unofficial USB 3.x drivers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D.Draker Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 3 hours ago, win32 said: strnlen. There's no such function in the driver 382.16 I suggested for him, and I already gave him precise instructions what to mod. The only thing left is NVCPL. But the driver boots fine, see my topic and the link for 382.16 is there. I wouldn't suggest drivers with missing functions. The crap from Nvidia website has more missing functions. https://msfn.org/board/topic/184056-breakthrough-p2-new-pascal-special-microsoft-nvidia-driver-port-for-vista-x64/?do=findComment&comment=1235351 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see that 382.16 is an "iCafe" driver and that most of the NVCPL components were removed, even though the inf still has all the "instructions" to install it. 2 hours ago, bromogatos309 said: No. Nothing of that kind of stuff. I did make a package combining the 382.16 driver with NVCPL components from 381.65 (untested for now because I am still working on job objects), but if that is not required, the byte sequences in the other thread are valid for modding the driver.

I found them a long time ago . So I don't know why he can't launch any of these drivers. EDIT: Invite you to move the discussion back to my drivers .
