Thread-topic: Windows can boot on open GFW now

Hi Tristan:

         After long time debugging, windows can boot on open GFW now. The last issue is wrong memory mapping when GFW do memory scan. So there are total four issues block windows. Showed below:

1.       SetupBrowser.,efi issue. I will try “build –v” to see if it can be solved.

2.       Unaligned reference error.

3.       FPSWA driver load issue. I didn’t find an elegant way to solve it, now the method is a workaround. This need future efforts.

4.       Wrong memory mapping.

 

I don’t know if there is potential issue, anyway, we get a good starting. I’d like provide to you some patches later. ThxJ
