Could I install that Microsoft Windows 2000 Unofficial SP 5.1.2195 and will that update my system fully?... (I need to stop asking dumb questions)

Currently, there is no one single file available, that I know of, that will update your system fully, hence tomasz86's long term goal of coming up with a new Win2k SP. Sorry if I jumped in and misunderstood something.

Cheers and Regards

Oh so that SP5, will not completely update my system, well that's no problem. so no worries. I'll just have update manually update my system then... man this is quite tiring :|

[tomasz86]

There is a simple way to update your system if you're lazy. It won't be fully updated but maybe around ~85%.

1. Install Unofficial SP 5.1 (USP5.1)
2. Install Update Rollup 2 (UR2)
3. Install the IE6 update mentioned above.

Then you can install the BlackWingCat's kernel.

I have tried this and there doesn't seem to be any difference. I do have UR2 installed so I do have Dnsrslvr.dll 5.0.2195.7280, but I tried what it said in that article and it didn't help. However, strangely enough, it seems that if I do an ipconfig /renew, my internet starts working again for a while. If this starts going beyond Kernel extension updates, we can create a new topic about it.

Did you use most recent dns Client ?

dnsrslvr.dll 5.0.2195.7180

There is a newer version in

http://www.windows20...dates/#kb951748

Dnsrslvr.dll 5.0.2195.7280 (included in UR2)

So it would work with the Unofficial Service pack, and the Update Rollup now that's easier , It may sound like I'm lazy, but I'm on dial up. and I'm trying to find a way I can get all the needed files all at one time on some High speed internet. with that said This should work thanks!

Extended kernel v2.x Minimum requirement is following.

1. Install IE6SP1+ Win2000 SP4 SRP1(Official)
2. Update for Root Certificates For Windows XP [April 2012] (KB931125) (Installed without message)
3. [MS12-052]Cumulative Security Update for Windows 2000 Internet Explorer 6 SP1 (2722913)

Caution: I haven't installed USP5.1 and UR2 in my environment yet.

If you want to try v1.8 kernel, the requirement is IE6 SP1 and SP4 SRP1 only.

Have you actually found any issues when your kernel is used with any of the two packages...? Both of them install files from the official updates and hotfixes only.

Edit: I can see that you've edited your post Please let us know if you do test the packages with your kernel and find any problems.

I haven't seem to have found any issues except for random explorer.exe crashes once in a great while. Speaking of which, my ISP was telling me that they weren't the problem for all my DNS problems, however, I dialed into a server in another city...and no problems! So, they were lying and there is no problems with the files included in the kernel extensions. But I've been running USP5.1, UR2, and any kernel extension for quite some time now and I haven't seem to run into any major issues.

Plz try to install IE6SP1 QFE Hotfix if you can.
(Check your mshtml.dll version 6.0.2800.1687)

Hi, Black Wing Cat! I've been watching and dreaming for a while and am finally making the leap ... with lots of help from tomasz86, for rollups and hfslip especially

I'm installing a 2000 system in msi p43neo3, core2duo, 2 gig ddr2, ich10r, p43, gforce 7300 256ddr2, realtek 8111c lan, realtek alc888 with two tiny speakers and 70 meg driver, jmicron fd-pata-sata, ...

Wherever I've found them, I've followed the links to your pages to look for a download ... google can translate everything but the drop down boxes, where I select the os, and chipset and etc.

The computer I'm building is offline so I can't use your automatic system scanner.

Can you post or PM me with direct links for my system ...
KernelEx driver is the main one, so I can run IcemanNDs DriverBackup program -- both versions 0.73 and 2.189 make calls which 2K kernel can't handle ...

the intel XP-driver for ICH10R seems to work fine so far in 2K, and the driver is small so I'm not worried ... but if you suggest something I'll try it ... sata and usb are fast compared to my current system ... sata1 to sata2 is 30m/sec for file transfers under Total Commander, USB is 6-8m/s

is there a smaller "plain vanilla" driver I could use for the realtek sound chip - I have simple 2 audio, voice only, with small speakers

the gForce 7300-256 video driver is kind of heavy and it has this feature where it graps 10% of mainboard memory to make 512m video ram (256 video card +10% of main board memory) ... sounds clunky

until tomasz86 finishes his drivers integrator for hfslip, can nLite integrate your drivers? can they be installed by command line into a running system?

sorry for all the basic noob questions ... I'm delighted that 2k is so alive and well!

thanks ... molecule

Hi blackwingcat, the latest kernel 2.2d breaks Java 7.7 on Firefox nightly as the browser just crashes.

So far I haven't tried the Java 6 version with 2.2d but since kernel 17n and Java 7.7 get along good together I've reinstalled kernel 17n for now.

Edit: the minimum requirements for kernel 2.2d were installed, including the IE6 update and Root. Except for Java everything seemed to work alright.

Hi,
I will check IcemanNDs DriverBackup and nLite Integrate.

On my environment Realtek 8168 NIC Card has any problem
So I use older version.

I analyzed it.
But it seems Daemon tools Lite program has some problem.
I think It occurs from DTL own bugs.
So Don't install DT Soft Bus Driver.

Hi,

Perhaps it is problem since 2.2c or 2.2d.
I fixed on 2.2e

Thx
(But I know Java 7 on Win2000 has some problems.
Some application would not back the response )

Thanks, unfortunately have to use Java every now and then so if it doesn't work good under the latest kernel I can always regress back to 17n.

After installing 2.2 there was an extra service running in Task Manager but couldn't figure out what it was. Finally nailed it down to Cryptographic Services? After reverting to 17n it was manually deleted from the Registry since it couldn't be stopped, only disabled. The uninstaller doesn't remove it apparently.

The new versions of Java don't work properly in Win2k regardless of the kernel version.

[DanR20]

Java 7.7 working just fine here so far using Kernel 17N. It's possible there's some sites not doing well.

Haven't installed the 2.2e kernel yet, will probably do that tomorrow.

Here's two sites to test:

Hi
Some of you may know that I have been trying to make a Korean version of KernelEx...
At some point, I made it, thanks to the helpful suggestion of you guys.
After install of v22e, accidentally I opened the setup log file and I found many lines of failure message.
I think many messages are just void and ignorable, but not all.
I can see also that registration of some DLLs have failed.
Any ideas?
