    Hi Ramsey,
    something new about 'JREPL.bat'
    greetings
    Dietmar

      Ramsey · 8 months ago
      @Dietmar I hit a road block. 🙁
      The English "TXTSETUP.SIF" file is encoded in UTF-8 and the Japanese "TXTSETUP.SIF" file is encoded in UTF-16LE. 🙄
      And the problem is that the "JREPL.bat" tool dose not support UFT-8/UTF-16 autodetection and the "rxrepl.exe" tool has problems with UTF-8 Non-Latin characters. 💩

      @Ramsey
      Hi,
      maybe, that you can contact the author of "JREPL.bat",
      and tell him this problem.
      "JREPL.bat" is based on "rxrepl.exe",
      so it is possible.
      Or you can try to implement the "auto" switch by yourself

      @Dietmar The development of "JREPL.bat" has stopped since 2020 and the Moderators in this DosTips forum are sleeping and aren't approving new comments. 🙄

      @Ramsey
      Hi Ramsey,
      what happens, if you store the edited files always as UTF-16LE?
      I dont know, how to edit the source code of Jrepl.bat .But I think, you are very good in this. You only have to look at the first 2 bytes of the Header of the text file.
      And there you find, if it is UFT-16LE or other UTF
      Dietmar

      PS: May be, that there is a Source Code how to do this already on the market, for example for "rxrepl.exe".

    Hi,
    actually my system is Q6600 with windows XP SP3 with 3gb and PAE enable so i see 6gb circa
    w HDD 2T.
    i need to make big calc on big Dbase, so my system is SLOW.
    I need a system FAST "zero latency" zero access of the HDD, some calc can stay for a day.
    My idea is buy a PC 16 core/32 thread (ryzen ? I7 ?) that boot with SSD NVME (samsung PRO? the most sicure) fast on read/write.
    with 128gb ram the fastest most secure so i can create a solid disk on RAM copy my BIG 64gb Dbase and do calc there or on the SSD NVME.
    Could you suggest me some configurations that you know work for sure with this
    Windows XP Professional SP3 x86 - Integral Edition 2023.6.16
    So that i can order/build up a PC that i know for sure work with your XP edition ?
    thanks !
    i have a g450 4 way wih 2 monitor flatron F900P CRT :-(( on my PCI slot ... old hardware but low consumption.
     i don't need BIG FAST 800 kw high consumption vga for game ...  seems 4k on windows XP don't work Could you give me a help ? Thanks a lot!

      Hi,
      XP SP3 can manage only 64 Gbyte of ram, I tested.
      A very nice board is the Gigabyte board z690 ud ddr4.
      CPU can be 12900k or 13700k. I have the first.
      All works under XP, only for Lan you have to use until now an extern Realtek lan card
      Dietmar

      PS: For to store data safe, I can only recomment a Western Black HD 2 TB,
      WD2003FZEX.
      For daily use, Samsung 970 or 980 Pro(!) are ok for nvme boot under XP and work.
      Better is an Optane 950P nvme disk, but very expensive. This one needs no TRIM.

    I've just downloaded Windows XP Integral Edition for Patch Integrator, so I could integrate only Microsoft USB, Microsoft NVMe and Microsoft SATA drivers into my Windows XP copy (that ships with Japanese language), but as soon I try to boot up from my USB stick and load setup, Windows XP complains about a corrupted .SIF file. Strange thing is that if I use Patch Integrator with a English version (or any other western language), it doesn't corrupt any file. I've also tried to integrate Patch Integrator's drivers using nLite for my XP copy, but only Microsof USB one works, others fail and so setup complains with error 0x0000007b (inaccessible drive) 😩 Do you know how to patch Patch Integrator for it to work on Windows XP with eastern languages? Could you please help me with this?

    I've used options 2, 3, A, B and G.

    I've also tried to integrate the Patch Integrator's drivers using nLite for my XP copy, I did check on both drivers requirements, such as: Kernel Mode Framework, ntoskrnl8 and storport (7) for Microsoft USB; ntoskrnl8 and storport (7) for Microsoft NVMe and so on. I've created 3 folders, one for each drivers, and placed these required files alongside them before integrating with nLite. Even so it didn't work and setup failed detecting hard drive, generating error 0x0000007b.

      @flamel
      Hi,
      I think, that the txt Translations tool, that ramsey now uses, I think for Unicode UTF-16,
      has problems with the Japanese letters.
      You can try the following:
      Take your original Japanese xp.iso and let the Patch Integrator work on it.
      And after this, you compare all changes from your original Japanese xp.iso.
      Via Nlite, you do all this changes by hand for your original Japanese xp.iso.

      In the beginning, you can test this methode with an original English xp.iso.

      For me this works

      @flamel Like Dietmar said the .SIF file problem could a language conflict with the file editing tool. But the tool should support all text file encodings. 🤔
      Upload you ISO file so i can check what exactly the problem is. After that i have to see how to fix it.

      flamel · 8 months ago
      @Dietmar Hi Dietmar, thank you for replying!

      I'll see what I can do, didn't know I could use nLite for this... thought it required hand editing .SIF file through Notepad. But my question is, which nLite section I need to use for this? Remove Components, Unattended, Options or Tweaks? I never used nLite beyond bootable ISO creation or update integration, so I'm a completely noob on this...

      Anyway, thank you for helping me!

      @Bladerunner It could be that the compiler flagged it as incompatible with XP.
      MS VisualStudio does this by default ever since they wanted people to upgrade.

      You can test to change the Executeable PE header with a tool like CFF Explorer. (https://ntcore.com/?page_id=388)
      It installs as a Right-Click utility and you can use it to get info on code-files. (And perform Edits+Saves)

      Using the utility you navigate: Nt headers -> Optional Headers -> MajorsubsystemVersion
      and change version 6 to version 5 (or lower).
      There's also utilities that do this for you, like MakeXP-x86, but I couldn't find any link right now.

      Some older programs you can get to work using this method but newer software usually complains about kernel32.dll not supporting whatever it is they want it to do.

      @ForgotMyOldAlias Thank you for your response. One of the programs that will not work is wingridds 6.0 file weather gribs software and I already talked to the author he said it should work with any OS win xp upwards. Sometimes I get with a few others Ill have to recollect which ones. Thank you for the responses and I will try out the testing of the PE executable PE header and Nt headers and makeZP 86 etc.

      I don't get the "valid 32 bit application error" which normally means not compatible with Windows XP. But i got this error below.
      I think the author of this program did not take into account that their are POSReady 2009 Updates for Windows XP. And it looks like this programs makes some system changes or doing some file version checks that are not compatible with the POSReady 2009 updates.
      WINGTIDDS setup ended prematurely because of an error.
      You system has not been modified. To install this program at a later time, please run the installation again.
