KernelXE Development Information and Progress

[infuscomus]

I see what you mean regarding the WMI functions.

A request - can you try try and implement HeadlessDispatch? or at least see if stubbing is sufficient?
This is the only missing import for the patched XP ACPI 2.0+ driver - at least for KernelXE-v0.2.4.2.

is it OK to use code from the WRK for this?

I can't find you on discord without your tag number.
Unless there's some way to add you without that I don't know about.

I'm not that skilled at debugging driver BSODs
This was with Kai-Schtrom's SATA AHCI driver. - sourceforge.net/projects/storahci-for-windows-2003/

Did this error appear to you during the installation of Windows 2000 or in the process of use?
If unsuccessful, boot into safe mode and directory mode. Try changing ahci to ATA mode in the BIOS or to another setting.
I think this problem is caused by the fact that this driver is made for 2003, why didn't you try Blackwingcat drivers ?

This happened in a VM, I was testing my ported windows 2000 ntoskrnl extender with Kai-Schtrom's SATA AHCI driver and got this BSOD, but I'm inexperienced with kernel driver debugging so I was wondering if there was anyone more experienced willing to help.

So I advise you in the next time to save Windows 2000.vmdk and copy it other folder and put it back when needed.
As for the new driver or ntoskrnl experience on the VM this does not give a real result as far as I know. Wait Ximonite is an experienced person or ask blackwingcat.

I've run into a wall with my ntoskrnl extender for windows 2000 - I keep getting a kernel mode exception BSOD from the hal.dll and I'm not skilled enough with debugging to solve it.

are you any skilled at kernel mode debugging?

attached my ntoskrnl extender - note: take off the 2nd .7z I left on the extension, that was just so I could attach these files to the post.

Hi infuscomus, I advise you to create a new topic in Windows 2000/NT Articles, so that there is no tangled information and Ximonite will help you

I think code should be added directly to 2000's ntoskrnl. I looked at the files you sent and you did a good job
It looks like your wrapper forwards some Wmi functions to 2000's ntoskrnl, which doesn't have them. This is probably your issue.
I saw your implementation of HeadlessDispatch and I'll try to add it to ntoskrnl whenever I can.
Like @WIN2000WARRIOR said, I think you should make your own thread for this project.
