The latest ntoskrnl.exe version >> here <<

moataz · Post by **moataz** » Tue Nov 21, 2006 5:54 pm

My greetings for the November pack Ryan !

I'd like to ask you about the ntoskrnl.exe version in the pack that appear like this when you type winver:

version 5.1 (build 2600.xpsp.060411-1541 : Servce Pack 2)

Is this an official hotfix from Microsoft or you have made it?

And what is the different between it and the kb890859 hotfix that appear like this when you type winver:

version 5.1 (build 2600.xpsp.050301-1541 : Servce Pack 2)

please reply me in details ... if your time allow!

060411 and 050301 mean "4th of November 2006" and "3rd of January 2005" respectively, it refers to the build date.

MrNxDmX · Post by **MrNxDmX** » Tue Nov 21, 2006 7:38 pm

Its not possible for us, especially Ryan, to make a hotfix. Its microsoft's job.

Post by **5eraph** » Tue Nov 21, 2006 9:12 pm

Actually ViVa, you have transposed the Month and Day incorrectly. It's supposed to be YYMMDD-HH:MM, not YYDDMM.

So here we have 2006 April 11 at 3:41 PM and 2005 March 1 at 3:41 PM, respectively.

ViVa · Post by **ViVa** » Tue Nov 21, 2006 9:36 pm

Lol! I know what it is "supposed" to be, but I thought MS always used YYDDMM.

Thanks for the enlightenment!

thanks ViVa , MrNxDmX ...

i'm not asking about the dates and time of the ntoskrnl.exe version

i'm asking about the advantage of the ntoskrnl.exe version:
version 5.1 (build 2600.xpsp.060411-1541 : Servce Pack 2)

does it have an advantage over the kb890859?

and what is the hotfix name that update ntoskrnl.exe version to the above date?

i hope i get a final answer, friends!

thanks a lot...

but i can't find the kb899816

do you have an active link for it?

Thanks again 5eraph

MrNxDmX · Post by **MrNxDmX** » Wed Nov 22, 2006 4:54 pm

Its an unofficial hotfix. You can get it when Xable's site comes back.

ViVa · Post by **ViVa** » Wed Nov 22, 2006 6:23 pm

KB899816? I thought you were talking about KB890859?

-> http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=890859

You can download it there.

Post by **5eraph** » Wed Nov 22, 2006 7:06 pm

I'm sure moataz was talking about KB889816 which is correctly linked in my history post. It is currently a request-only fix.

However, I was able to dig up an active download link, but it's located on LaptopVideo2Go. Here's a link to the post containing the download link:

Forum post on LaptopVideo2Go's Forum

They currently only have the English version.

ViVa · Post by **ViVa** » Wed Nov 22, 2006 7:29 pm

http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=899816 doesn't exist...

Post by **5eraph** » Wed Nov 22, 2006 7:39 pm

That's because you're trying the wrong number!

So far only my posts reference the correct KB article number (KB889816). moataz made a typo and you're perpetuating it.

ViVa · Post by **ViVa** » Wed Nov 22, 2006 8:32 pm

you already underlined it in your previous post, I overlooked.

moataz · Post by **moataz** » Thu Nov 23, 2006 2:43 am

you ended the topic 5eraph

thanks for the effort man.

thanks guys.

Nice find, tfw2002.

It seems that it's already on Xable's share.

moataz · Post by **moataz** » Sun Nov 26, 2006 3:11 pm

moataz · Post by **moataz** » Tue Nov 28, 2006 1:57 am

But where is the link to kb924441 tfw2002?

Post by **5eraph** » Tue Nov 28, 2006 2:05 am

You'll have access to that hotfix if you become a member of Xable's forum. It can currently be found in the English Upload section.

Thanks a lot 5eraph

Can you please give me a link to the exact location in the forum? because I can't find it? Thanks.

Post by **5eraph** » Tue Nov 28, 2006 10:11 am

Once you're logged in you'll find three links beneath the words "Hotfix Share" in the upper-left corner: Home, Upload, Download. Click Upload, then English. KB924441 is near the bottom of the list.

tfw2002 · Post by **tfw2002** » Tue Nov 28, 2006 11:17 am

You can also search the Hotfix Share if you're looking for a specific hotfix keloo05.

I use and find Xable's a valuble source for MS Hotfixes.

Steve

PS. Thanks Seraph for helping moataz.

Post by **5eraph** » Tue Nov 28, 2006 11:34 am

No problem. I was wondering what kinds of changes were made to the kernels myself. It's also nice to have the latest fix when it's targeted toward my CPU.

Thanks for the heads up, tfw2002.

Hey,

Should we wait for an official release?

laze.

Post by **5eraph** » Wed Mar 07, 2007 7:11 am

If it can be downloaded from the KB article then it has gone public (aka "official," as in "not private").

just_laze · Post by **just_laze** » Wed Mar 07, 2007 8:58 am

Right,

And could I integrate this hotfix using nLite or can I directly replace files in my source manually?

I gather this isn't included in Ryan's pack because Microsoft do not consider it a critical update?

laze.

Post by **5eraph** » Wed Mar 07, 2007 2:11 pm

The update was just released by Microsoft. I suspect that Ryan may include it in the next Update Pack.

I believe nLite can integrate it if you need it right away. Don't hold me to that though.

Uh, 2.1.7 was released two weeks before that hotfix was...

Post by **5eraph** » Tue Mar 13, 2007 2:29 pm

Looks like the latest kernel fix has become a High-Priority update.

Post by **RyanVM** » Tue Mar 13, 2007 3:37 pm

Always nice to see nothing special coming out on patch Tuesday besides a new MRT and an official release of an already-released fix

.

That being said, I have a hellaciously-busy week this week (big presentation Friday, job interview Thursday morning, dinner meeting Thursday night, etc...), so I probably won't even look at any of this stuff until the weekend.

the date of the service bulletin notwithstanding, those kernel updates have been available for 60+ days.

Post by **5eraph** » Tue Oct 13, 2009 10:40 pm

I have lost track of the latest x86 kernels. My list will no longer be updated. Besides, I believe most people still using XP x86 have moved on to SP3 by now.

The patchwork PC I put together in August only has SP2 on it because it's so old. Six gigabytes total of hard drive space isn't much to work with, especially when Windows and dotNET seem to take up most of it. The installation was done in 2005, two months before I joined this forum.
