Ethernet not working as expected, time for drivers

Still bumping

Well, USB mass storage does not work. Gonna get my USB to CF adapter to get drivers in.

Network driver does not install claiming it's for a wrong card. Installed the display driver and it's stuck here. Noice

Safe mode still tries to load G400 driver for some reason and crashes.

>>59028464

Also I think my caps are busted. I guess this concludes today's performance!

the G400 AGP supposedly should work, maybe try it again, try another driver
keep in mind reactos targets windows 2003

>>59028313
DUDE

LMAO

lmao, Russia better fund this project at full speed if they want to replace this to replace Windows.

You get the point.

Most entertaining thread I've seen in a while

>Word up drug smokers!

What a shitshow

Fix that motherboard

This was immediately my first reaction haha

Op here, good news! I have several more of these shitty computers with different vidya cards, so look forward to more episodes of this shitshow next week!

By the way, how do I extract built-in drivers from XP to put them into ReactOS?

why the fuck is it copying reiserfs.sys when it doesn't support anything but FAT

Druaga you already did this once, try something else.

>>59033683
Maybe it's a limitation for boot drives only?

Like how you have to install wangblows on NTFS only, while it supports fat32 and exfat too.

This went about as well as could be expected. Good luck next time with your next garbage build PC, anon.

Why not just get the device drivers on a USB stick and install them that way?

>>59034435
Because bare drivers built into XP have a better chance of working than drivers downloaded from the manufacturer's website that include extra 30 megabytes of bullshit.

>>59028182
Love that inwin case. The front is so stylish on those. Looks like its internals are a lot more convenient too when compared to my A500.

>>59028202
>matrox
oh baby that takes me back

God speed OP, with some divine luck ReactOS will get good enough to replace the piece of shti that is Windows10

>>59034781
I had an A500 once, it's alright when you need to disassemble and replace all the internals at once, but sucks thermaltake dragon orbs when you just need to swap a single component

best thread in /g/ right now purely for ironic reasons

>>59028518
Somehow I never got bulged caps, except on one asrock lga 775 board I found in discarded PC.

>>59030626
Oh, they do? Nice, I have one. I meant to try Reactos like since 2007, but by the look of it, the ability to run from real hardware only decreased with the advent of VMs.

Maybe in another decade it'll be as stable as Windows 95.

IMHO the task is too big. It will never get anywhere.

if a S3 ViRGE won't work, nothing will

If anything, ReactOS devs are playing the long game

Oh I got that too, but that's unsuitable for 2D display even. 16bit, low resolutions only.

>>59038470
You say that as if Windows 95 was stable, in first place.
