The Chromium is x64, but Steam refuses to use Windows 7 x64 CEF because it detects Vista Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilwalaihr Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 (edited) Good news! I finally got the old version installed, I had to install Windows on pure Legacy MBR, the new version (with the installer) still breaks the OS though. @win32 I can only run up to Firefox Quantum 64 and it can get laggy, is this an issue with the old version of the kernel? I probably need to try the new one later Edited December 30, 2020 by ilwalaihr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I probably need to try the new one later I don't think so. Is ntext available at this point? If not you can use the even older procedure for getting Firefox 7x/8x working by replacing the ntdll function call RtlQueryPerformanceCounter with NtQueryInformationProcess in firefox.exe using CFF Explorer.

Create an empty file reporter.exe and replace with it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
