Hi, I have published on my website a list for the latest compatible versions of programs that run on Windows 7, including some of the few that have already dropped support, so it is easier for people like us to find software for our systems. Likewise, the software section also features compatible ve...

If I'm not mistaken, the Eclipse forum makes 3 years today.
Here is a purple cake.



P.S.: limit of 1 slice of cake per guest. thank you

Hi, I've published an article on my website detailing some of the tests and benchmarks that I've recently performed with different hardware scenarios, from both older and current eras, as well as virtualized and emulated ones, over Windows 3.1, to see how this old operating system behaves in each of...

Could you move all the extension pack features into VirtualBox itself? The extension pack is entirely closed source, anything i could do with it is include the .vbox-extpack file into the final installer, but besides that, there is not much else i could do. in any case, installing the extension pac...

I did try to compile versions newer than 5.2.34, but something was changed with the building system which breaks certain undocumented routines. While I could try to figure that out, I'm not sure it would be worth the time. It's worth mentioning that 5.2.36 broke machine additions for Windows Vista g...

I have recently been investigating how to compile VirtualBox versions 4.3.12 and 5.2.34 on Windows, only to realize that the documentation is very incomplete and that many issues will prevent you from doing it successfully. It took me a long time, but i eventually got it working. Given the unnecessa...

Newer NVIDIA drivers are no longer WHQL signed because Microsoft does not allow new Windows 7 driver submissions to their Windows Hardware Quality Labs. Therefore, by license restrictions, they are not allowed to distribute signed drivers that pass the Windows 7 logo testing. Instructions for instal...

Hi, I created a PowerShell script to automate the downloading process of update files from the Microsoft Update Catalog (https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com), this way you can grab them for convenience or archiving purposes. My script supports advanced workarounds and options to make it as effe...

31 years ago today, Windows 3.1 was released to the general public. Often regarded as a simple revision, it was in fact a very important release for the history of computers. To commemorate this special date, i have made a compilation of software released in 1992, the same year the OS was launched, ...

Not the most popular but PicoTorrent is also a good option if you want something lightweight.

Hi, Today I've published an article on my website to help you get through the whole process, from start to finish, of setting up Windows 3.1 on a virtual machine using Virtual PC, including audio, video, mouse, MIDI and networking, so you can get the most out of this iconic version of Windows. My ar...

Back when I was friendly with win32 and co I heard from one or more of them that 7, when paired with a WDDM 1.1 driver and a capable card, uses DirectX 11 for Aero. I think they would know their shit. Could test with the AMD driver and deleting the DX11 dll on 7. At the uncertainty of making a new ...

Windows 7 uses DX11 for Aero To my knowledge, Aero actually uses the DirectX 9Ex API with Shader Model 2.0 capabilities for its rendering. This allows older graphics card, such as the GeForce 6 series lineup (from 2004), to run Aero despite their core architecture not supporting DirectX 10 or 11 in...

One of my AMD FX machines, running too hot as usual

Even though it might not seem like the logical approach, playing Win32 games over Wine or Proton is actually the preferred and recommended way of playing games under Linux environments [1][2] . Traditionally, Linux game ports were plagued with issues [3] , relying on the only graphical API available...

Windows Vista also runs surprisingly well, quite stable on my experience. Windows XP also runs p...

I've been tinkering around with windows XP, and discovered you can actually run the newest and latest java version, that is 8 update 291 from April 2021, after some tweaking with XomPie. I've been testing it out with different applications, including minecraft, and seems to run and perform as expect...

probably already known but here it is: the windows vista retail dvd has a very tiny easter egg engraved in its surface

what hardware ID does the audio device reports? It seems VirtualBox emulates an also (sigmatel) IDT HD audio card, so working drivers for VirtualBox in HDA mode should also theoretically work with your non-virtual device too. There aren't many compatible drivers, but maybe that could get you closer ...
