SD card ≠ SDHC card ≠ SDXC card
SD card ≠ MMC card

An old SD card reader can read SD cards up to 2 GB (maybe 4 GB). Everything above this capacity nolonger is an SD card.

Use WSUS offline to build an updater.

It will install all the official patches for XP.

You really don't want to be using XP to browse the Internet anymore. Most pages are not even going to work at all as most of them have started blocking older browsers.

For AV, Comodo might be the best that still supports XP.
Looks like AVG and Avast still have some support as well.

For XP you have chrome 86, and still works great for most web

Or mypal 68, based on ff 68, still fine

I use XP as my main os without problems for web surfing

Eewww... Maybe I am just a bit too paranoid. I like fully up to date browsers that will work fine with all modern pages as well as ones that have the security holes fixed.

Chrome 86 works fine, the html5 test is great, 528 points

As my main browser i do a lot of bank & goverment stuff, i buy airplane/train tickets etc. and never find any problems or web not working for now of course sadly will change in near future

The only problem right now, is that there is no DRM support in chrome 86+XP , for netflix i still need to use firefox+silverlight. Im not happy with this, but is a small price to use XP, a OS i hope no need to change in a near future

i need somethings for Windows XP:
1 - what is the best browser and antivirus?
2 - i have a sd card reader.. i can use MMC with 64MB's, but a microsd, with adapter, with 8GB's ins't detected... even on Disk Manager isn't showed... is there a patch or something?
3 - is there a kernellEx or similar?
4 - using PIF Settings: the "%systemroot%" give me the Windows folder... but what is the string for get the actual folder path? (or the pif folder path)

1 - Better nothing
2 - Maybe your card reader hardware is old, i use 256GB microSD in XP wihtout problems. Go to hardware/device manager and google using you hardware ID a better or more new driver

for example a hardware ID: PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2821&CC_0106

3 - OneCoreApi but is not recommended for now
4 - %CD% works fine in batch and pif files

"4 - %CD% works fine in batch and pif files"
so i have : "%CD%\autoexec.nt" the folder path is "C:\Games\dos\duke3d".. but i get a message error "%CD%\autoexec.nt. The Sistem File isn't for run on MS-DOS...."
so what i did wrong?
i'm trying testing the OneCoreApi: https://github.com/Skulltrail192/One-Core-Api
and i'm trying the Driver Booster, maybe it can resolve the Card Reader problem 😉

using driver booster, i get the right driver and now works.. thank you so much for all.
now i need get the right OneCoreApi installer(yes no success 🙁 on that link ) and getting the current folder 🙁

This make no sense at all, for local directory you dont need to add nothing, %CD% is for batch files or in pif to force the application to point to local directory, that this make sense

About onecoreapi, STILL IS NOT for everyday use

And drive booster? dont know what is this... but locate drivers by hand, only god knows what else you get installed beside drivers...

see these image:

what is the right string for get the actual\current folder?
