NTVDMx64 on Windows 8(.1) #23
Comments
Anyways, I saw a post in the VOGONS forum posted by "robertmo" that proves that it works, still don't know how? (I've tried emendelson's 2017 compiled version before the compatibility improvement). |
Sounds strange, a BSOD? I don't install any kernel drivers or bad things like that, just usermode hooks. Anyways, the CreateProcess() Hook propagation wasn't too stable, so I guess I'll have to wait until you try out the new loader. |
I'm sorry I can't remember, too bad but all I remember is that the code was 0xc000021a I think. |
Ok, like I thought, loader got injected into a critical system process and crashed it somehow. |
I knew where it all started, I've installed the one for Windows 7's loader. |
Easiest method is to modify install.bat, after pause command, there is a |
Alright then, I'll try. |
The phenomenon that it works on command shell only the second try is typical for the case that the injection into the console process doesn't work properly. Here is what happens: What I find interesting is, that launching it from explorer doesn't work, maybe the patching of conhost.exe cannot be done which is needed to get console graphics working. You can use DebugView from sysinternals to check for messages from the loader, it may tell you about problems when trying to hook/inject. |
DOS Textmode executable works fine when doubleclicking. |
Gotta try every deprecated Windows (LOL)! |
Hello devs, thanks for this great tool to run DOS applications (I can't get Jazz Jackrabbit running though).
Well, I tried NTVDMx64 on Window 8.1 and the installer asked me to install the ntvdm for Windows 7's loader at my own risk, and I did that, after I reboot, I unlock my PC and I tried a DOS game (MARIO) but it didn't work, so I've uninstalled NTVDMx64 (Windows Defender removed it before un-installation) and I got a BSOD, I've rebooted my PC and used it for a while (2-3 minutes approx.) and another BSOD comes out, everytime I boot my PC that happens, until I've reinstalled Windows 8.1 all over again....
I know it's not supported on Windows 8.1 but I tried it at my own risk, so that's what I've got to tell you about testing NTVDM on a WIndows 8.1 computer.
Can you support this project for Windows 8.1's Loader?
