Thanks for the Windows Installer fix. Now some old msi installers don't crash anymore on my system.

Hi ziomek,

thanks for info.

I am not sure if we can use files from KB2518041 Windows Installer v.4.5.6002.22605 in Windows XP, because they are for Vista SP2.
Previous HF KB2388997 are for Windows 2003.

Regarding KB2756651 I'll try to post tomorrow a repack for XP.

Post by **5eraph** » Thu Oct 25, 2012 3:30 pm

I tried using the Vistax64 files from KB2518041 in XPx64, but found a few errors in SetupErr.log: "LoadLibrary returned error 127 (7f)". Similar errors may occur in XPx86, but I haven't tested.

it may not work -> WindowsXP-KB942288-v3-x86 + Windows6.0-KB2518041-x86

but it should -> Windows6.0-KB942288-v2-x86 + Windows6.0-KB2518041-x86
In Windows6.0-KB942288-v2-x86 missing msisip.dll
So
Windows6.0-KB972397-v2 + Windows6.0-KB2518041-x86
or
Windows6.0-KB972397-v2 + Windows6.0-KB2619572-x86

and preferably -> Windows6.0-KB981929-x86 + Windows6.0-KB2619572-x86

Post by **5eraph** » Thu Oct 25, 2012 6:57 pm

Won't speculate on Windows6.0-KB942288-v2 or Windows6.0-KB981929. But...

WindowsServer2003-KB942288-v4-x64.exe + Windows6.0-KB2619572-x64.msu

...fails more spectacularly than...

WindowsServer2003-KB942288-v4-x64.exe + Windows6.0-KB2518041-x64.msu

Same errors in XPx64, but now the display drops to 4-bit color with no way to increase display quality.

Code: Select all

tomasz86 · Post by **tomasz86** » Thu Oct 25, 2012 11:29 pm

@5eraph

There are similar problems with the latest BlackWingCat's kernel32.dll for Win2k. When it's slipstreamed it breaks something during the components registration phase.

The solution is to replace the file AFTER the first boot, i.e. during the setup an older version is used. It may work similarly in this case. Did you observe any problems when the files had been installed in a running system?

Post by **5eraph** » Fri Oct 26, 2012 11:40 am

The 4-bit color problem is due to the latest version of VirtualBox (v4.2.2). Rolled back to v4.2.0 and it went away. The other previously reported errors stand.

Confirmed a new one that occurs when slipstreamed and when installed on a running system, tomasz86:

You need MSVCRT.DLL / MSVCIRT.DLL from Vista x64 but I don't know whether it will work in XP x64. In UURollup I do use MSVCRT.DLL from Vista 7.0.6002.22755 (x86) but it's only possible with BlackWingCat's kernel where NT 5.2 / Vista only APIs have been added (they aren't present in XP x86, at least some of them should be present in XP x64).

PS The screenshot is so big that it has broken the topic (made it too wide) on my monitor (1024x768)

Post by **5eraph** » Fri Oct 26, 2012 11:59 am

I have v7.0.3790.4400 of msvcrt.dll and msvcirt.dll from KB955536-v2. BuildDate is "Fri Oct 31 08:04:47 2008".

For future reference, Ver.exe and WinVer.exe report XPx64 as "Version 5.2.3790".

Changed the [img] to [url] for you. Screenshot is 808x675.

KB2756651 msftedit.dll v.5.41.21.2513 (above)

caused problems with directory names and serious corruptiion in many windows ui's including Add Remove Programs on my XP sp3 machine.

I rolled back to:
KB2616879 msftedit.dll v.5.41.21.2512

which works fine.

Hi Acheron,

also Tomasz86 reported he have not experencied the problem (Tomasz uses Windows2000)

shiner · Post by **shiner** » Fri Nov 16, 2012 4:35 pm

After seeing tomasz' and Acheron's posts, I took some time to re-test the update with msftedit.dll v.5.41.21.2513 on clean XP VMs using user_hiddens Nov. update pack.
In both VMs, the update installed WITHOUT issues afterwards.

So, my previous test which resulted in display issues must have been due to something else on that system (despite being resolved by rolling back to msftedit.dll v.5.41.21.2512).

Thanks again for time and effort to make and release these updates.

Thanks for useful information, dencorso

I've also used msftedit.dll 5.41.21.2513 in Windows 2000 ever since it was available and haven't experienced any problems.

dencorso · Post by **dencorso** » Mon Sep 02, 2013 12:54 pm

A long time ago the great Geoff Chappell found out the never officially fixed Missing Icons in Notification Area bug and described a fix for it. MDGx still provides an implementation of Geoff's patch for SHELL32.DLL v. 6.0.2900.6018 (from KB2286198), which is nowadays quite outdated. Although I've not created an installer for it, I've decided to port Geoff's patch to SHELL32.DLL v. 6.0.2900.6242 (from KB2691442 aka MS12-048, July 10, 2012), which is the extant latest version of SHELL32.DLL (just the QFE branch, as, nowadays, even MS does not release GDR branch updates for XP SP3 anymore).

dencorso · Post by **dencorso** » Sun Aug 30, 2015 5:36 pm

Well, since March 10, 2015 my previous post above became outdated with the release of KB3039066 (part of MS15-020), which installs shell32.dll v. 6.0.2900.6752 (that's the POSReady 2009 version, of course!)... So I've decided to port Geoff Chappell's Missing Icons in Notification Area Patch to this new shell32.dll version... and here is it!

Please do the following:

1.) Create a temporary folder, let's say... C:\PATCH

2.) Put a copy of shell32.dll inside that folder
The file shell32.dll should be v. 6.00.2900.6752 (xpsp_sp3_qfe.150217-1510), having:
SIZE 8463872 BYTES
CRC32 D556A503
MD5 EB6017163A3BC0D41716E6359DE91DB6
SHA-1 F4F293718C452B413DDC17DAB4D5BB8B7D36D1CE

3.) Now rename shell32.dll to shell32.ori

4.) Download the freeware command-line utils.zip, from KanastaCorp, grab inside it just patch.exe and and drop it into the C:\PATCH folder

5.) Now copy this text into notepad and save it into the C:\PATCH folder
as shell32.txt:

begin 644 shell32.pat
M]Q8``'/-__\`)H$``":!`(`````X`0```@!EJ;D\!@`#`,#4`;X\!@`!``$\
M,2,``0#X8#$C``$`U`@R(P`!`%`*,B,``0!A##(C``$`=`XR(P`!`&,0,B,`

`
end
sum -r/size 39816/206 section (from "begin" to "end")

6.) Now rename shell32.txt to shell32.uue

7.) Now copy this text into notepad and save it into the C:\PATCH folder
as uudec.txt:

8.) Now rename uudec.txt to uudecode.com

9.) Start a DOS box, go to C:\PATCH folder, and run the following commands from the DOS prompt:

uudecode shell32.uue

patch -p shell32.ori shell32.pat shell32.dll

10.) All having gone well, the new shell32.dll created, containing Geoff Chappell's mod shall have:
SIZE 8463872 BYTES
CRC32 89EF44EB
MD5 E0D337200D205C390B16DB3846B1A8CF
SHA-1 16AC0E1F249CF2002982F72FB66B16E5525EAA9B
And the file description on the properties tab will now say "Windows Shell Patched", for easier recognition.

From this point on, all you need to do is to boot with a PE or LiveLinux CD and replace the original file both on c:\windows\system32 and on c:\windows\system32\dllcache

Note: If you don't have any reliable way of calculating CRC32, MD5 and SHA-1, here are official MS command-line utilities for doing that: CRC305 and FCIV (and no, you don't need to install KB841290 for that, just open it with 7z and grab inside it FCIV.EXE, which requires no installation at all).

DISCLAIMER:
It works great for me, but YMMV and I can guarantee nothing whatsoever about this patch, and about the use one makes of it. So, by deciding to apply it you fully accept that anything you do is of YOUR SOLE RESPONSIBILITY... Hence, if after performing this mod your pc morphs into a purple mushroom and explodes, causing a 10-day worldwide blackout in the process, you know you can't blame me for it! You have been warned.

I was wondering if someone could help me overclock my USB ports so that my mouse can operate at 500hz.

These are the instructions I have:

1. Locate usbport.sys in %SystemRoot%\System32\Drivers
2. Take a backup of the file, save it like usbport.BAK for instance.
3. Hexedit the file, locate this sequence of hex values: "3C 08 73 09 C6 86 0A 01", look in FAQ
if you can't find it.
(You can google for one, a lot of free hexeditors on the net. I used Hex Workshop 4.0)
4. It's found at different offsets depending on what usbport.sys version you got. non-SP/SP1/SP2
5. Replace that string with this one: "B0 04 73 09 52 8A 0A 01"
6. Save&reboot
7. Go into safemode (this is to avoid WFP), replace the patched usbport.sys in both
%SystemRoot%\System32\Drivers AND %SystemRoot%\System32\dllcache (hidden folder)
8. Reboot, and it should all work fine.
9. Back in WinXP, check samplerate, and you SHOULD notice the change. For the ones with total
blindness for such things; you will notice that sensitivity feels LOWER.
Other things: Better responsetime/less jitter/mouselag/whine from you.

If you do find "3C 08 73 09 C6 86 02 01" instead, then your patches will also have to change for 250hz and 500hz. The

correct ones will then be: "B0 04 73 09 52 8A 02 01" for 250hz, and "B0 02 73 09 52 8C 02 01" for 500hz.

My problem is that I have:
3c 08 73 09 c6 86 b6 01

in my usbport.sys file. Maybe it's because I'm using XP x64. Could anyone tell me what I'd replace it with to get 250hz, 500hz, 1000hz?

The only other place I've found this referenced so far is here:
http://www.overclockers.com/forums/show ... xp-x64-pro

But no one answered it.

Thanks

I managed to get it working with SweetLow's USB Filter driver:

http://sweetlow.at.tut.by/download/hidusbf.zip

(It's a 404, but use archive.org to dig it up, it's there).

The benefit of using the filter driver is that _only_ the mouse gets overclocked and not all the USB ports.

But it only worked up to 250Hz so far with me Microsoft Basic Optical. I'll try with an old Intellimouse and see if that goes higher.

EDIT:
Yes, with an old Microsoft "Wheel Mouse Optical USB" it does indeed work to 500hz, as measured by the "mouserate" utility. So I'd highly recommend this filter driver as opposed to hacking USBPORT.SYS.

Dencorso,

I also have used Geoff Chappells patch without issues. I have changed the timeout to 10 minutes without problems.

dencorso · Post by **dencorso** » Sat Mar 05, 2016 6:36 pm

@Acheron: My implementation of Geoff Chappell's patch uses just 2 minutes for the timeout. I never found a machine needing more than that, but I guess it also depends on number of cores, processor speed and amount of RAM available, so that YMMV. Glat to know it works OK for you, too. And with a 5x longer timeout, on top of it! You rock!

For future reference, Ver.exe and WinVer.exe report XPx64 as "Version 5.2.3790".

Changed the [img] to [url] for you. Screenshot is 808x675.

It can fix handler 4 error. Using in xpx86 without any problem

I'm using WinXp Pro SP4 and termsrv.dll 5.1.2600.5815 doesn't seem to work. I always get kicked out when a new user login.

Impossible!!! v.7.0.3790.4400 of those files don't exist for x86, because no KB955536-v2 was ever issued for x86! V.7.0.3790.4341, OTOH, does exist, because there is a v1 issued for x86 of KB955536... now, all those files accomplish is to prevent XP SP3 from ever reaching desktop: it just freezes instead.

Again, since Sep 11, 2018 my previous post above became outdated with the release of KB4457163 (for POSReady 2009, of course!), which installs shell32.dll v. 6.0.2900.7551... So I've decided to port, once again, Geoff Chappell's Missing Icons in Notification Area Patch to this new shell32.dll version... and here is it! For instructions on how to apply this patch, please do refer to my previous post.

begin 644 shell32.pat
M]Q8``/T+````)H$``":!`($````X`0```P`0-X')/`8``P#`U`'./`8``0`!
M/#$C``$`^&`Q(P`!`-0(,B,``0!0"C(C``$`80PR(P`!`'0.,B,``0!C$#(C
G``$`:!(R(P`!`&44,B,``0!D%C(C``$`(!@R(P`!`"`:,B,``0`@
`
end
sum -r/size 42013/206 section (from "begin" to "end")

All having gone well, the new shell32.dll created, containing Geoff Chappell's mod shall have:
SIZE 8463872 BYTES
CRC32 ECF3943E
MD5 0BB0C936CF41E1879F0F7AA33133ADE1
SHA-1 F6E8399303FBDA8DB7B1806B5D9E545C7BED619A
And the file description on the properties tab will now say "Windows Shell Patched", for easier recognition.
