But he did explicitly state he did NOT use a "vistaexkernsetup" to deploy it: AIUI, he had to install an (unofficial) Vista SP2 x64 .iso (made by a third party), with "a" version of the ExtKernel slipped-in... Only the person that made the ISO knows the exact version of the ExtKernel that was integrated in the ISO, @Voxo simply inquires whether it's at all possible to identify "that" version post ISO-install... yes...

Yes it does, but it uses some different syntax (FirefoxFix=1 instead of BuildNumber=7600 for fixing Firefox fonts, for example). 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please help for Windows Vista with Windows 10 functionality. That's wrong. No end of support date have been decided yet. Also please note that this is not because Chromium ends support for Win7 that Mozilla will immediately follow. As Firefox does not rely on a Chromium base, they can continue providing support as long they want. For example if they wants to continue supporting W7 until 2026, they can (I'm not saying they will, but they're capable to). As you can see, the latest Nightly build runs on W7. If Mz planned to end the support in February as you said, Nightly should have be blocked on v109, as v111 represents the release that will be released in March. This scenario happened on Chrome & consorts, they blocked W7 on v109 on Canary builds in December when 110.0.xxxx.xx builds arrived, because if you plan to stop support on a product, providing alpha builds of the next version on it is just senseless. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.Draker Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 IMPORTANT: Whatever changes were made to the last October kernel, they are for the good ! I get much, much better performance in DX11 games. Esp. in the latest titles I recently ported to Vista. I mean the kernel32.dll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D.Draker Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 @win32 hi, could you suggest a real replacement for these ? Just stubs don't work for this precise case. Thank you ! GetMaximumProcessorCount this one somewhat worked if replaced to GetCurrentProcessorNumber These below didn't work if stubbed. GetThreadIdealProcessorEx K32GetModuleInformation K32GetProcessMemoryInfo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If those are the only two functions imported from kernel32, you can change the import DLL name to psapi.dll and the function imports to GetModuleInformation and GetProcessMemoryInfo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just too many of them to edit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for K32GetProcessMemoryInfo, I meant to say GetEnvironmentVariableA. It should fit in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After some time I could only get a white (hardware) cursor in the game. So i'll stay with my 1st variant for some time and see if works for more than several hours. With it I get occasional frame drops, but nothing awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
