  1. Past hour
  2. Don't get me wrong, Thorium runs against all expectations well overall, and I've just made some more performance improvements by changing some flags I have been using. On such systems, it is essential to select the correct flags that really correspond to the hardware. In any case, one thing is true. Thorium definitely runs on Intel Pentium 4 single-core 32-bit. Thus, here is one who runs a Chrome 122 under Windows XP on a 20 years old Pentium 4 CPU. And it's me. PS: And as always, I know exactly what I'm doing.
  3. Today
  4. I don't like to do address bar searching, so I never change or add search engines to Chrome-type browsers. I preferred old Firefox and Palemoon versions that have a dedicated search field on the UI and for those I have added search engines to.
  5. On Win7, Iron 109 with 3 extensions: - Adblock Plus - uBlock Origin - User-Agent Switcher (disabled)
  6. I think they need to update system requirements. https://support.google.com/chrome/a/answer/7100626?hl=en No one runs Windows 10 on a Pentium 4, no one runs Chrome on a Pentium 4. A Raspberry Pi 5 offers much more enjoyable browsing experience than any old, loud and clunky computer from over 2 decades ago or so.
  7. As I have written elsewhere,these are its advantages: https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uBOL-home If of course the extension works. P.S. Select the filtering mode "Optimal". Do not use all filter lists. I would use these filters. Of course, choose your language.
  8. Never tried before uBlock Origin Lite. Always the standard version. But I will test it. However, I believe that the page loading speed is a general problem of Chrome and not of uBO, especially on old, weak hardware.
  9. AdBlock -- best ad blocker ::: version 5.22.0 One list and one list ONLY -- Anti-Circumvention filters -- UPDATED DAILY, not the abandoned uBO anti-circumvention filter list Been the ONLY way to prevent YouTube ads at work (the only place I use YouTube to begin with ) Auto Maximize Tab ::: version 1.1.0 To maintain a drag-and-drop feature of 360Chrome when a tab is dragged to a different monitor (all of my computers have from 3 to 5 monitors) Autofill ::: version 11.5.1 I don't like memorizing passwords or usernames or even phone numbers or addresses and built-in browser feature doesn't always work, this ALWAYS works CRX Extractor/Downloader ::: version 1.5.7 I use UNGOOGLED and DO NOT WANT the "Chrome Web Store" to work in any way, shape, or form on my computer I also NEVER use extensions "as-is", I modify them to run the way I want them to run Enhancer for YouTube ::: version 2.0.123 Works great for my needs but you will need a MODERN browser to use this Extension List ::: version 1.0.2.0 To turn extensions off and on with a toggle switch with two mouse-clicks instead of jumping through way too many browser hoops and menus H5EQ ::: version 0.0.2 10-band equalizer so that audio doesn't sound like it's coming from a speaker manufactured by a 5yr old in a 3rd world country Speed Dial ::: version 3.0.0.1 I have zero use for a "bookmark bar" or even a "bookmark menu", all my favorites are accessed via icon-based grid I also intentionally limit my number of bookmarks, most of my websites aren't accessed via a "bookmark" but by Proxomitron "URL aliases" Stylus ::: version 1.5.15 We all know Stylus 6 userscript "primaries" here at work, my "primary" styles all have anywhere from 2 to 21 actual URLs that they effect Four times that or so at home Tampermonkey ::: version 4.13 We all know Tampermonkey 18 userscripts here at work, twice that or so at home uBlock Origin ::: version 1.26.2 We all know uBO Only five lists, Proxomitron is my primary filter workhorse Ungoogled Chromium v114 Win10 Enterprise 22H2 here at work Win10 LTSB 2016 at home
  10. Try temporarily disabling UBO and installing UBO Lite and do some testing.
  11. Hello Dietmar! I am actually trying to restore your backup on an empty hdd. But i need the paragon iso you once gave me. I tried an iso i found on the internet but it doesn't give me the option to restore backup image. I think i will also need the backup image that you created.
  12. I have just updated the Chrome XP API Adapter from version 1.2.0.5035 to 1.2.0.5045. Now, the page chrome://system/ works as it should and shows besides other information the RAM usage more compact than using the internal task manager. I have opened two tabs and eight extensions enabled in Thorium. The total RAM consumption is around 381 MB, also checked via Process Hacker. Here is a screenshot: I think such a RAM consumption is appropriate for a modern Chrome browser under Windows XP and remains within reasonable limits. However, the page loading behaviour in Thorium is still far away from the one in New Moon 28 or Mypal 68 on such an old, weak computer like mine. Cheers, AstroSkipper
  13. Over the past 2 days I have successfully used a policy in Edge to eliminate the automatic addition of the other search engines that I unwanted in the list. I then made my only search engine default. The search engine “BING” was removed from the list. Of course, I uninstalled the extension.
  14. You're indeed right! I fired up my old VPN client at home, not work, and I get unauthorized HTTP error 403 at imgur! But I also get that freaking spacer.png (not always! On random) without it, using Thorium, go figure!
  15. Yesterday
  16. Looks like the conversation was locked by win32, the repository owner. Guessing because it was a simple statement, not a conversation opener. If you still wish to chat about it, all you need do is click a button.
  17. Unfortunately, I don't know that "collaborator", and he seems to be absent on MSFN either, there's no official statement by win32 on the link you gave, what was I supposed to "not notice"? I fail to believe win32 wouldn't find two seconds to comment on such serious matter at that github page himself. Another oddity, that repository (topic) is locked now, and what if people wanted to say something about it, probably add another fake page, warnings?
  18. NT4 was installed in english I don't remember which programs.

  20. There are still other options if Legacy Update doesn't work for you on Windows XP. Take a look here: https://msfn.org/board/topic/183498-general-and-specific-solutions-for-problems-regarding-auwumu-in-windows-xp/?do=findComment&comment=1216506
  21. I checked again all three extennsions. My favourite is Autoplay Whitelist. This one memorises all permitted websites in a whitelist.
  22. I got nowhere. All it did in 6 hours was heat up the room and increase the cost of electricity bill for the current month.
  23. What I've told you has nothing to do with debugging, I can't teach you the answer you need because I am not a programmer. Instead I told you the solution I used, so you can run IDA and hex editor to modify the driver. Officially the minimum requirement of Quadro DCH driver is 17098. That is why 1803(17134) is required. But old minimum requirement in standard driver still works so Tuning GPUs still work on 1709 with DCH driver. If GeForce DCH driver requires 1803, I think 1803 should be enough for Ada Lovelace GPUs.
