I just notice, that the variant of hal.dll 5.2.3790.3959 (srv03_sp2_rtm.070216-1710) and its ntoskrnl.exe is very much different from XP SP3 version, because it has dependencies on

ExiReleaseFastMutex

ExiAcquireFastMutex

ExiTryToAcquireFastMutex

 

KiCheckForSListAddress

 

which the XP SP3 version does not have

Dietmar

FYI, KB2281309 carries the latest hal's for Windows Server 2003 x86 (v 5.2.3790.4768), and KB941838 contains the latest intelppm.sys (v 5.2.3790.4143). Both are available to download on the TheHotfixShare website.

@XPRTM

Thanks a lot, I get both *.exe Updates for wk2 bit32.

Do you know a way, how I can extract those files alone to a folder,

so that I can fetch only the wished drivers

Dietmar

@Dietmar

You can use the /X switch to extract the update packages. Just open a cmd window in the same folder where the hotfixes are located, and run them with the /X command. You can also use the /X: switch.

For example:

  WindowsServer2003-KB2281309-x86-ENU.exe /x  will prompt you where to extract the files

  WindowsServer2003-KB2281309-x86-ENU.exe /x:Temp  will extract the files to folder named Temp(it will be created if it doesn't exist)

Hi,

does anybody know, how to start Legacy Update for win2003 r2 SP2 DataCenter x86 ?

It shows me wrong win2003 r2 SP2 DataCenter 64 Bit

and the green running bar stops running at the beginning

Dietmar

PS: Is there an Service Pack for this win2003 r2 SP2 DataCenter x86 version?

EDIT: I just have to wait 30min..

Next try for intelppm.sys to overcome the crazy power consumption.

Intelppm.sys 5.2.3790.4143 (srv03_sp2_qfe.070831-1432) USA.

Yesssaa, this works. Power consumption now 25 Watt, before 75 Watt.

May be, that some powerstates want to go to win2000 powerstates, crazy,

Hi,

3DMark2001 is not running on Windows Server 2003 bit 32. On both versions, Standard and Datacenter.

As far as I can check, everything else runs. Crazy, for sound I have to install Microsoft UAA device driver for 2003

and enable sound in Directx and in Services.

Directx 9c is installed, graphikcard GT 730 works ,

dxdiag.exe tells, that all is ok.

error.log from 3DMar2001 tells, that only Directx 6 is installed, but it needs Directx 8.1.

Already I fake OS version in registry to XP SP3, does not help, this only helps for to install Nvidia graphik driver

344.11-desktop-winxp-32bit-international.exe

Any ideas

Dietmar

EDIT: 3DMark 2003 runs all correct.

Via Legacy Update I have all updates until 2015(!).

@George King

What is the latest intelppm.sys ENU, USA version for XP SP3 that you have?

I think, we make a small mistake in power consumption hack for this.

@pappyN4 brings me to this idea

I will check in two hours. Also with patch that I have in XP2ESD. I don’t know which one I have for XP. I’m always adding patches only for latest fileversion.

[Dietmar]

@George King

I think, that this is the correct modded intelppm.sys for XP SP3, for to bring power consumption down as much as possible,

thanks to @pappyN4

I don't think you are dumb, we all have our strengths and strong points, but I also feel dumb when I compare to others and I struggle to explain things to others, but I know you will.
