    Do you have Win98se or WinME and wanna run "XP" only programs??

    Try this > http://sourceforge.net/projects/kernelex

    ff31.png

    Must be installed on Win98/WinME (Dunno if anything else will work but this looks awesome!!) and you must have Microsoft Layer for Unicode (MSLU)

    Basically this adds a COMPATIBILITY MODE...

    Known problems:

    Despite changing Windows version in compatibility tab some programs complain about wrong system version. Example: Adobe Flash Player 10

    Solution

    Create "xp.reg" file in notepad with following contents
    REGEDIT4
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion]
    "CurrentVersion"="5.1"
    

    Double click on "xp.reg" file.

    Install the program.

    Create "unxp.reg" file in notepad with following contents
    REGEDIT4
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion]
    "CurrentVersion"=-
    

    Double click on "unxp.reg" file.


    Windows Download: http://sourceforge.net/projects/kernelex/files (First file on the page)

    If You're still running 98 or ME You really should consider upgrading :eek
    ME was 10 years ago, Microsoft supporting it nearly half a decade ago.
    Its a dinosaur
