Compiling ACPI v2.0 driver for Windows XP SP3 and Windows 2003 SP2 (x32/x64)

[winwhistlerfreak12]

People, do somebody has latest XP/x86/x64 ACPI.SYS or skull one? I heard v6 is the latest. If im wrong just send the latest.

The link by Diemar requires to pay to the service to retrieve the file...

 

Just attach it here or on mediafile..

Thanks.

In short i need the latest XP x64/86 ACPI.SYS or skull ones posted by Diemar.

I succeed to install full XP SP3 on the Lenovo thinkcentre m625q thin e2-9000e

Hi Dietmar,

I am trying to learn how to install XP SP3 on the Lenovo ThinkCentre M625Q with the AMD E2-9000e. Can you PM me and show me your process? I tried to PM you before posting to this forum, but I don't think I have the ability to send a PM (it might be because I am new to the forum).

Thank you!

Hello everyone

After installing Windows XP on my 13th generation computer and successfully installing the drivers, I bought an Asus ROG Strix G834 14th generation laptop.

My problem is that I want to have this XP feature on my laptop.

But the 14th generation ROG series strongly resists booting XP. Not only Windows XP, but also Windows 7 and 8 and even bootting Windows 10.

Many have suggested virtual Windows, but virtual does not have that main feature.

That computer would boot at least the 13th generation, but this only boots the 11.

The problem is overwhelming First I have to solve the boot problem, then I can install Windows.

Is there a way to hack this Rogue Strix and install Windows XP on it, or do I have to completely ban XP on this model?

Hi,

I just find a new ATX board with 1700 socket,

that seems to be 100% compatible with XP. Sound, Lan, serial, just all.

Gigabyte B760 ds3h ddr4

I just ordered and soon will report

What about cloning the 13th gen XP-partition to a separate nvme and trying to boot the 14th gen system with it?

In addition to using maximum power to run games in windows 10 and 11, I also run some older games with Windows XP.

Some older games will run on Windows 7 and above, but they are either very slow or require 32-bit.

Hi,

here is my report about this Gigabyte board Gigabyte B760 ds3h ddr4.

Installation of Ramseys XP was ready in less than 5 min. All devices Lan, sound, serial are recogniced at once.

I do not know another 1700 socket ATX board with this feature for XP.

I came by accident to this 14900k cpu, brandnew.

On prime95 this crazy cpu wants (with AVX enabled) 370 Watt, throttled at once to half of 5700 MHZ, brrr..

This cpu is much less stable than the 12900k, which I tested intensive before. It makes records in geekbench 2.4.3 with 56000 points.

But in prime95, even with throttle, one core tells suddently bye bye, this you can see with 0%.

This core isnt defect, just crashed. Also there are temperature differences about 20 degrees along the chip. The cooler I setup perfect.

Intel did a really bad work. The last good chip was the 12900k.

Anyway, the nice new cooler Dark Rock pro 5 has now much more space between the rams,

Admirable

You defeated the 14th generation and installed Windows XP on it.

Apparently this Asus Rog Strix is so powerful that it won't let any Windows other than Windows 11 boot, let alone install it.

Could you detect whether it was an E- or a P- core which crashed?

[Dietmar]

@Mark-XP

Yepp, even the E-cores runs much hotter (97 degrees) than the P-cores,

it was a P-core that crashed at only 75 degrees.

So, Intel has a really BIG problem with their new chips

That was to suppose, and you may consider yourself lucky if there's no degradation in that core. Did the board get the latest bios update?

i knew this already since over a year, because i read computerbase regularly !

Hi,

just now I update to the very last version F11 for the Bios for this Gigabyte board.

First impression: Cinebench shows 5% less points.

The throttle is now not as hard as before.

The power seems to be restricted to 250 Watt.

The whole temperature difference through all the cores goes now down from 21 degrees to 9 degrees.

The hottest core (E-core) shows now 91 degrees in prime95. Before, with the Bios F8, it was 97 degrees.

Prime95 is now running for 10 min (with AVX). No crash but throtteling as heavy as possible.

EDIT: Now prime95 runs without any crash for 38min. So it passes the critical 19min of prime95.

I never saw a compi, who crashes in prime95, after it survives the first 19min.

In prime95 the cpu never runs with its 5700MHZ, maximal with 5300MHZ, this means throttle even before start.

This means 7.5% less computer power, brrr..

So, the power consumption changes from 250 Watt to 65 Watt in a second and then back after few seconds, because the frequenzy for the the cores are set to half, exact as with the old Bios.

This behavior I have NEVER seen on a 12900k.

Dietmar

 

EDIT: When you take a look at

https://cpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Intel-Core-i9-14900K-vs-Intel-Core-i9-12900KS/4151vsm1821519

you see, that after the new Bios gives 5-7.5% less computer power for the 14900k,

now it is nearly equal to the 12900KS. BUT the 12900KS does not show heavy throttel.

 

Bios F11

Checksum : 6621

Introduce the "Intel Default Settings" and enabled as default, user needs to disable it first to use GIGABYTE PerfDrive profiles

Introduce microcode 0x12B as the final mitigation of 13/14th Gen desktop processor Vmin Shift Instability issue according to Intel official

i. 0x12B encompasses 0x125 and 0x129 microcode updates, and addresses elevated voltage requests by the processor during idle and/or light activity periods.

ii. microcode 0x129 (August 2024) addresses high voltages requested by the processor.

iii. microcode 0x125 (June 2024) addresses eTVB algorithm issue.
 

Add EZ-OC support for AORUS x XPG co-branding DRAM

I make a direkt compare with the Intel 12900k.

In prime95, the maximal power consumption is 242 Watt. No crash.

But the maximal throttle in prime95 is only from 4900 MHZ ==> 4800 MHZ.

And the max allowed temperature for this cpu is 115 degrees,

for the 14900k only 100 degrees.

Result: The 12900k is the much more stable cpu

Dietmar

EDIT: Out of the blue I have just a crash of one E-core, temperature about 70 degrees from the 14900k cpu, brrr..

Sorry about that. I saw this comment and thought it was referring to Windows 2000 in the context.
