Hi RetroOS, would you mind sharing a few link with applets not working if you can remember any. I have installed java 6 update 13 over update 7 since a few days and I have not encountered any problems with the java apps I have installed on my computer.

It was web pages with java applets.
For example, the Sun Java test page shows a blank space where the java information and test animation should be.
See: http://www.java.com/...help/testvm.xml

KX: 4.0.12 (RC2) - no problem with earlier versions

Many times when starting Windows, the wallpaper will appear and then nothing.
The mouse cursor moves but no other activity.
Pressing Ctrl-Alt-Del once does nothing, twice shows a "Windows is busy" blue screen.
Pressing a key, gives the Task Manager.
Task Manager shows only one process - mprexe (not responding).
After I end this task, there is some disk activity then nothing again.
Then Ctrl-Alt-Del again as above, but this time it shows msgsrv32 (not responding).
After ending this task, nothing - I have to restart.

Workaround: Install Revolutions Pack 9 (with KernelEx 4.0 RC2) (!)


I know it's a bit late but with RP7, disable KernelEX extensions for 'RunDLL32.exe' either the compatibility tab or through registry:
REGEDIT4

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\KernelEx\AppSettings\Flags]
"*\\RunDLL32.exe"=dword:00000001


If for some reason that doesn't work, revert RunDLL32.exe to the stock version using the System File Checker. Only thing lost by doing so is access to the RP7 system properties info and use of the 'version spoofing' in the RP7-specific compatibility options tab.

FYI: I had to use the compatibilty tab to disable KernelEx for the ODBC Data Source Administrator ( \windows\system\ODBCAD32.EXE )

It was unable to read or configure any FILE DSN without having KernelEx disabled for that program. Then I had to disable KernelEx from another program that tried to use an ODBC File DSN.

All seemed fine with System DSN's, it's just that File DSN's would not work at all.

Hi experts,
I use KernelEx now for several months. I have no significant problems without onyl one. But at first my system configuration.
System: Win98 SE, V 4.10.2222 A
Internet: Firefox 3.10
Firewall: Savety.Net
Antivirus: Avast
Other Software: Open Office 3.x, Acrobat Reader 6.0.4, Realplayer 10, Quicktime 6.5.2, Windows Media Player (WM) 9.0, ...

I would like to update the WM 9.0 Microsoft. This download is available to customers running genuine Microsoft Windows. But after I start this MS-Software (GenuineCheck.EXE) the software reports an error "missing Export-Kernel32.DLL:HeapSetInformation".

Question: How can I start this program with KernelEX ??? (I have disabled the support of KernelEx in the option windows for that program).

Thank you for your support.

It works well with Opera 9.64 and Java 6 update 13 here. I can't test with another browser as I don't have Firefox and my IE does not have Java installed.

As I understand, you're using the latest version of KernelEx (RC2).

Could you install and test Java 6 update 14?

Yeah latest KernelEx and no I can't be bothered installing update 14 now. It is not 100% officially out anyway is it ? The main download page for the JRE still has update 13 as current if I am not mistaken.

Why don't you install it yourself btw ?

Java 6 update 14 was officialy released - here you have release notes: http://java.sun.com/...notes/6u14.html

As to the your question: I have glitches with the latest version of KernelEx (probably as the effect of other patch).

GenuineCheck.exe ver. 1.7.36.0 works with Win98. I don't remember if I had KeX installed or not when I last run this program.
I saved the .exe because somehow I knew I will need it later. :D

Hi there... today I had to install Windows 98 on some old PC and would very much like to have it run Firefox 3. I was very pleased to read that this is possible now with KernelEx!

Only problem: it doesn't seem to work for me. But maybe I'm just doing something wrong... hope someone can help!

What I did:

- installed a clean Windows 98 SE (German version)
- installed the inofficial service pack from http://www.nandlstadt.com/win98sp.htm (2.1d)
- installed KernelEx 4.0 RC2
- installed Firefox 3.0.10

The installation went smoothly but on start, Firefox tells me that it crashed and that tabs will be restored on the next run if possible. I never even see the Firefox main window.

Any idea? Is the service pack not supported with KernelEx? I uninstalled it but that didn't make a difference...

UPDATE: just did a full re-installation and this time used the 3.x beta of the service pack, same result :(

1. Operating system version: is it Windows 98 Gold (aka First
Edition), Windows 98 Second Edition or Windows Millennium?
-->Win98SE

2. KernelEx version - as displayed at the bottom of the
Compatibility tab or in Add/Remove Programs tab
-->Unknown; "compatibility tab"? what is that? first i heard about that.

3. Program vendor, program name and program version.
-->KernelEx homepage by Xeno, 4.0 RC2 released on 2009-03-21

4. Description of the problem.
-->No clue that it can work

5. Exact steps required to reproduce the problem - what to click and
what to press after the program starts
-->Starts? Are you kidding?
What i did:
Replaced [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion]
* I had: Win98SE Win2K:
Version "Windows 98" <nil>
VersionNumber "4.10.2222" <nil>
ProductName Microsoft Windows 98 <nil>
* Now is:
Version "Windows XP"
VersionNumber "5.10.2600"
ProductName "Microsoft Windows XP"

Replaced [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion]
* I had: Win98SE Win2K:
(Default) (value not set) CurrentVersion 5.0
ProductName Microsoft Windows 2000
* I now have:
(Default) ""
CurrentVersion "5.1"
ProductName "Microsoft Windows XP"
Version "Windows XP"

Installed Unicows.DLL and registered it
Installed KernelEX
Modified \Bootsec.DOS (to read MSWIN 5.1 and WIN XP)
Modified \MSDOS.SYS (to read MSWIN 5.1)
Modified \Windows\Winver.exe (to read 5.10.6200 and Windows XP in 2 places)
Modified \Windows\W98setup.bin (to read 5.10.6200 in 2 places)
Modified \Windows\Command.com
*Negative effect: MSDOS shell doesn't work

Even after all of that, sysinfo gives:
Microsoft Windows XP 4.10.2222 A
So do not know what else to fudge to fix the 4.10.2222...

Still..the ASUS M2N-MX SE Plus CD bitches saying it dislikes WIN_4.11
as an OS; cannot find that string *anywhere*.

So, what do i do to make it work?
Is there a way to test the above patch?

6. Did the program work prior to installing KernelEx? Does disabling
KernelEx in compatibility tab fix the problem? - important to classify
the category of the bug.
-->See above
