Service Pack for Windows ME

Recommended Posts

Sent! I've also obtained 838751, which includes msvcrt.dll 6.1.9847.0. It's also sent your way MDGx. Maybe include those 2 files in 98SE2ME? They only have dependencies in kernel32.dll (when used together).

New release sometime today!

Hey guys,

Thought I'd give you all a nice little gift,

A fully working version! Yes, this means beta 6 is now available for download. I installed it on a fresh install and it works perfect. Link is temporarily here until MDGx uploads it to his server. I hope it works perfectly fine for everyone. If not, let me know.

Changelog:

-rolled back msvcp60.dll to version 6.2.3104.0

-removed auupd.exe

-fixed npdsplay.dll copy issues

-Updated usp10.dll to 1.0422.3790.2706 (919136) Replaces 2003 SP1 version

-Updated msvcrt.dll to version 6.1.9847.0 (838751) Replaces 2000 SP4 version

-Updated scrrun.dll to version 5.6.0.8830 (906092) Replaces Script 5.6 version

-Updated vbscript.dll to version 5.6.0.8829 (903648) Replaces Script 5.6 version

-Updated triedit.dll to version 6.1.0.9240 (2003 sp1) Rplaces XP SP2 version

-Updated dhtmled.ocx to version 6.1.0.9242 (906216) Replaces XP SP2 version

-Updated hhctrlui.dll to version 5.2.3664.0 (ie6 sp1) Replaces 811630 version

-Added webvw.dll from 900725 (reshacked to version 5.50.4134.7061)

-Added asfsipc.dll and npwmsdrm.dll from wmfdist7

-Added dxmasf.dll, mplayer2.exe, msdxmlc.dll, and strmdll.dll from media player 6.4 (included in ie6 sp1)

-Added 832353 (msdxm.ocx)

-Updated jscript.dll to version 5.6.0.8832 (919237) Replaces 917344

-Added 920670 (hlink.dll) Replaces 888113

-Added 922616 (hhctrl.ocx + reg entries) Replaces 896358 version

-Added 830460 (msvcirt.dll)

-Added new unofficial 918547 (gdi.exe + gdi32.dll) replaces 912919. Still unsure about leaving the 918547 files from MS (updated by an anonymous person).

For those wondering about where 832414 is, I removed it as it would require msxml 3 installed for WU to work.

dump the kb918547.exe and q918547.dll files. I've removed them from beta 4 of the 98fe SP2 which will be posted tomorrow morning.

also modify your mesp202en.SED file and edit the TargetWin9xVersion and the TargetNTVersion sections of the SED file to have the following:

TargetWin9xVersion=4.90.3000:%OSWarn%:0K

TargetNTVersion=0:%OSWarn%:0K

Then in the [strings] section put this line:

OSWarn=This Service Pack is for Windows Millennium Edition only.

Starting from beta 3 of the unofficial 98FE SP2, when running the 98FE SP2 under other versions of Windows than Win98fe, a warning message will say "This Service Pack is for Windows 98 Standard Edition only." instead of the default message "The 'Unofficial Windows98 SP2' package is not compatible with the version of Windows you are running."

@erpdude: Thanks for the suggestions. I was thinking about doing that. I might even update vbscript.dll and jscript.dll to version 5.6.0.8833, included with IE7 Beta 2.

Also, does anyone know why dispex.dll version 5.6.0.8825 does not work on any 9x OS's?

Dispex.dll versions 5.6.0.8515, 5.6.0.8825 and higher BREAK IE 5.5/6.0's Print and Print Preview functions under Win9xME. If you run IE 5.5 SP2 or IE 6.0 SP1 under Win9xME, and have Dispex.dll 5.6.0.8825 and you try to use the Print or Print Preview function of Internet Explorer, IE will display a "script error" message and the Print/Print Preview features of IE no longer work correctly. That's why we should stick with version 5.6.0.6626 of the dispex.dll file.

Microsoft did the right thing on not updating the dispex.dll file to higher versions when they released WSH 5.6 build 8825 for Win98/ME/NT4. Just like not updating the oleaut32.dll file. Oleaut32.dll versions 2.40.4526 & higher dont work correctly under Win9x/ME/NT4.

Microsoft also did that for Windows Server 2003 SP0 on the same day. They also did that for 2000/XP back in June.

I think jscript.dll and vbscript.dll will be upgraded to 5.6.0.8833 in the next version unless someone else has a reason not to.
