Description

What steps will reproduce the problem?

  1. Trying to run DolphinWx on Win2000

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

'The procedure entry point IsWow64Process could not be located in the
dynamic link library KERNEL32.dll'

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Windows 2000 SP4, occured on every SVN version I have tried.

Please provide any additional information below.

Seems like IsWow64Process function is supported by Windows XP and above.

Windows 2000 does not support IsWow64Process function, but you can use Windows 2000
XP API Wrapper Pack by OldCigarette, if you want to run Dolphin Wx on Windows 2000.

You may also need xinput1_3.dll to solve pad issues, because DirectX 9.0C will not
install it on Windows2000 by default.

Weird, as far as I can tell the code is loading IsWow64Process dynamically. Oh well.
It's not like we care about Win2000 very much anyway and if that wrapper fixes it ...
that's the way it will be for now.

I'm having similar problems with a program called ChessMaster grandmaster edition

Basically I suppose it was made for windows XP.

I obtained the API wrapper pack...... but either it doesn't work for

"the procedure entry point iswow64process could not be located in the dynamic link
library kernel32.dll"

or I'm doing something completly wrong, even though I spent a good couple hours
racking my brains on what it could be, I even went in and adjusted registry keys
manually... but i think i'm way off.

Any help from someone who knows how to use the program would be GREATLY appreciated.

OldCigarettes Windows 2000 XP API Wrapper Pack can be found here:

currently at version 1.7. The wrapper wraps this function IsWow64Process.

The forum is an excellent resource with tools as well and even OldCigarette is a member:

Latest Dolphin SVN needs xinput9_1_0.dll from DirectX 9.0C and hid.dll from Windows
XP SP3.

Now bthprops.cpl from Windows XP SP3 is necessary for identifying Wiimote Plugin.

Dolphin requires Visual C++ 2010 redistributable package since r7129.

Considering it's Windows 2000 and DX9 support has been removed I'd suggest we resolve this as Won't Fix.
