It is not a typical PE file, it is not a device driver either. When I load it into IDA Pro, it's got an entry point called ModuleEntry... Not very usual, because PE files usually have a main and WinMain and usually have a preprocessed entry point. Any idea? Thanks Jack

Okay, got something to work. But as my target resolution is ~119?x1000 The original windows resolution is 1024x768 so some pixels are stretched when these resolutions are not compatible. So I use scalers, I do see some effects, but when I scale from 2x to 5x, the unaligned pixels are gradually …

Hello, If using the CRT_D3D_Br.fx shader, when the resolution is the above, then the aspect ratio is 1:1.1 approx after all the sidebar stuff around. (1280x1024) monitor initially... The vertical scanlines are farther apart. How can repack them closer together?

When comparing the rendering of SDL with Intel HD 3000 and AMD HD 5770, I found that AMD HD 5770 renders the graphics/dosbox with double-thickness line-stroke. But Intel just runs fine even on a irregular screen resolution in maximized mode in windows 7 host, it doesn't strengthen the thickness of …

ClassicShell is good, but is lacking a lot of windows xp important features, like the explorer doesn't exactly look like xp and the menu is very fake I want to use xp explorer directly instead

What is the main reason why the windows screen so messy? Does the Pixel clock frequency mean the standard VGA RAMDAC throws 25.175Mega pixels at the screen in one second And Horizontal frequency 31.469 kHz means the hardware throws 31K horizontal lines at the screen in one second? Thanks Jack

Is that called shell programming? There are programs like rainmeter, classicshell Are those shell alteration programs? And the technique they use is called shell programming. How come I didn't find much information/books about this topic where I can learn to program the desktop? Thanks Jack
