[quote=siria] Hi Mikk, I'm still on win98se too, but have forgotten nearly everything about little tweaks and fixes :-( Back when the very first beta versions of 1.6 appeared, there was some very detailed thread about 98 bugs, but all my old screenshots are now lost because the image hoster doesnt exist anymore, and some of the mentioned bugs don't exist anymore in the newer betas anyway. Very glad guenter still has so much more system knowledge! He sure can help you better, but anyway my two cents. Actually I'm still on beta25, but only for laziness, and plan to update to 26 soon for safety reasons. But I don't expect any problems really, it's just that I have an awful lot of customized stuff and little fixes in all sorts of folders and files, and so have to see what to transfer and what not and how, and because of my own macros don't necessarily want some of the new beta ones. Although I would still recommend them to new users, who don't have lots of private old stuff. So just a few random thoughts for win98: - In the KM components folder, delete compreg.dat and xpti.dat, then restart browser to create them fresh again. - The loader is optional, it just automatically preloads some parts of KM in the background at system start, so that when manually starting KM it looks as if it starts much faster. Then if you close KM, those parts are still kept in background (and in the forum users complain that restarting didn't work to change some setting or fix). Personally I don't use it. - Go to about:config and filter for .jit., it has to do with some advanced javascript stuff getting executed parallel at same time or such. At one point setting it to false it reduced some memory probs on win98. - Do you have dependency walker installed? It helps a lot figuring out which dll-files may be needed additionally. Usually it has to do with those additionally needed vcredist library files, msvcr... msvcp... Not sure anymore if at some point I also needed mfc80.dll additionally, was it 1.6 beta, or 1.54 or...? Or did I have to fully install such a package? A mini-version of it? Can't remember... - replace the opera hotlist.dll with the old one from KM154, even if you don't use it, because the newer has a bug that deletes the opera nicknames (if a user has defined any) - many toolbar probs origin from errors in macros, but are noticed right away after browser start, so if you didn't install any new ones it shouldnt matter - if the toolbars are messed, the error consol usually disappears from the menus too, just when it's needed most. But it has an own address so can still be viewed at chrome://console2/content/console2.xul Since in the past I experimented all the time with new macros, I had even added it as link to the file readme.html (which is the default browser homepage). Right after the body tag I have inserted: <[i][/i]a href="chrome://console2/content/console2.xul"> ERROR CONSOLE 1.X (if macro bug killed menu to it)<[i][/i]/a></br></br>[/quote]
