Windows 95 running on a Wii part 1

[Officer94]

great but my pentium 1 pc with 66mhz is faster than the wii with windows 95 :P

what can i do with this?

[marvindingdong]

@silentwrath1 now its running lion and windows 7 perfectly in dual boot, thanks ;D

[deraickripper]

@silentwrath1 i use a usb kayboard on my wii

[jenison99]

i never knew windows 95 could run on a wii O_O

[xan1242]

What command did you use to boot?

[Nicholasc99]

lion would give a kernal pa-... oh wait they defaulted it to be off so it would restart in less than 1 secound

[MatheusMK3]

Now, run Lion 10.7 on it... =P

[MichaelJacksonwithJ5]

does this brick your wii

[ConsumerInspector]

can u plug a usb mouse and keyboard into it?

[ito12347]

@ConsumerInspector yes

[Nicholasc99]

@ConsumerInspector yes a keyboard and mouse work

[marqueskart]

@weegee205 uh, they won't do it remotely. only if you're stupid enough to update your Wii through Nintendo, you'll lose your homebrew though there's always a chance of it being bricked.

[Terryracoon]

@weegee205 Not really.... They could, but have never done it as far as i'm aware.... The worst "problem" you can have for having homebrew is that nintendo always tries to remove it on the updates..... (Also, if you DO brick your wii on homebrew, it's mostly the user's fault)

[Schoba2]

mal ganz ehrlich

mein erster rechner mit 166mhz ist schneller hoch gefahren. was soll es den bringen auf die wii win95 drauf zu ziehen.

[nintendo1889x]

@serverguyxx Nope. they released HBC 1.0.8 and using Super Smash Bros Brawl hacks can still be used; I already updated and it works just fine.

[1zacster]

Can you use the DVD tray like a cd reader? How much ram does it have? Would you try installing star craft on it please?

[random470697]

@serverguyxx they did not i have the hombrew channel on my 4.3u wii its not hard just go on this link and follow instruction :  youtube.com/watch?v=mgKYlmppxW­4

[brokeandbloging]

i try this and got no internet did any one get a image working with xp or 95 with internet this be nice if it work for hulu

[AaronPr19]

@brokeandbloging look up installing linux for wii I think its internet streaming works!

[jebug29]

Since you do seem to know some stuff about Homebrew, well... I have Priiloader, Bootmii (NOT boot2) , HBC, and some other loader channels on my Wii. I have used the ios58 installer. I have Wii System Menu 4.3 (first version). Now, reinstalling Homebrew would be no problem, but I updated using the official Nintendo online updating thingy, would it brick my wii? Oh, and I enjoyed your video as well.

[crashbandicoot4everr]

jjjjj

[aaronchungrulez]

Startup time: 0:31 to 2:23 . i would normally grow old, die, and get reincarnated before this shit loaded hahah

[ViperVenom128]

does it have internet?

[darkpokemon0426]

That dosent look like a wii

[OmegaVesko]

@darkpokemon0426 Look at the beginning, he's opening DOSBox in the Homebrew Channel. That is indeed a wii hack.

[20eric07]

How did you create/install/load the image? I'm trying a install I made on QEMU with an image created with Bochs but booting it on the Wii gives me "Disk I/O error / Replace disk and press any key"

[marvindingdong]

I have two Questions:

1. Can run windows 7 on the wii ? or windows xp ?

2. Can run hackintosh on the wii ?

[autonomous2010]

@marvindingdong

1st: NO! Windows 7 would never run on a wii.

2nd: Yes you can run windows xp... but it will be kinda slow.

[marvindingdong]

@autonomous2010 ok thx for the answer...

[wiredgroup]

@marvindingdong 1. Win7 = No. XP = Mabey. Not that I know of.

2. No.

[marvindingdong]

@wiredgroup ok thx for answers =)

[marvindingdong]

@wiredgroup One Question... Runs ubuntu on the wii ? the 9.10 ? or netbook version ?...

[marvindingdong]

@wiredgroup And whats with Ubuntu 9.10 Desktop (or Netbook) ?

[WiiThoko]

@marvindingdong

You can run a special version of Linux on the Wii, I think it's called Whiite.

No Ubuntu though...

[marvindingdong]

@WiiThoko ok thanks for answer. :)

I do hack my wii when i have a new card reader

[autonomous2010]

@WiiThoko Well thats because ubuntu is WAY to resource hefty to run on the wii.

I had trouble running Ubuntu on less than 512MB of RAM. The wii has roughly 88 MB of RAM.

Gentoo linux would run fast on the wii though. Assuming you could work out any driver incompatabilities.

[zsoltixx93]

Next gen consoles are avalible to run last-gen oses.

[fly666monkey]

Turns out that this works real well on the new version of dosbox! Anyone for a little Diablo 2?

[weirdsleepovergirls0]

Why wud u want an old pc on a wii for?

[djpipotheoriginal]

cuase it looks good

[weirdsleepovergirls0]

I find learning about old microsoft computers such as, Windows Me, windows 95, 98 etc etc intresting

[spintheblackcircle4]

me too. =)

[ieatoldmen]

@weirdsleepovergirls0

Those are operating systems. Microsoft doesn't make computers.

[greenyoshi64]

what do you type and do you need dvdx and can it run on companion version (the one that comes with new PC disk)

[kiback]

HBC rules ! ;-)

[JakeBanfield]

super quick loading time!

[vancar6]

if i install homebrew channel will it or could it damage my wii?

If i did install it will i be able to uninstall it?

THanks

[ftwelve]

No it couldn't damage your Wii and yes you could uninstall it.

[TheJankyJungle]

actually it can damage your wii but ususally doesnt if you are careful

[ftwelve]

TheJankyJungle is actually right, but as long as you're just referring to the Homebrew Channel I think the odds are better that you get hit by lighting then damage your Wii.

[thewii552]

@ftwelve just so people wanting to do this now know, there is an update by nintendo that will either delete the homebrew channel, or break your wii. I don't think i will try it...

[OmegaVesko]

@thewii552 You are right, the 4.3 update does delete homebrew. However chances are it's only going to get rid of the HBC and leave the Wii well alone. This leaves you to just reinstall the HBC using a game hack... Unfortunately, the 4.3 update also permanently disabled the use of Bannerbomb. D:<

[TheRealDutchOwner]

@ftwelve, It's indeed VERY hard to brick a Wii, because patches are made, and the new Letterbomb exploit doesn't use games anymore, so the moon would explode faster then a Wii getting bricked by Letterbomb.

[razorbulan]

@ftwelve why 95 you can run windows 98 with dosbox:)

[cmpunk185]

Try looking up some tutorials on this site, trust me i don't think you could damage your wii and yes you can delete homebrew channel.

[masterquest91]

But it will void your warranty.

I suggest doing it though.

Once you install the homebrew channel, you should look into a neat app called "bootmii." It's a program that allows you to back up your wii system memory in case you accidentally brick it.

[vancar6]

If i do brick it can i fix it?

And if i did home brew on it could a outher manfacture fix it?

Thanks

[ShadowFlame121]

@vancar6, yes if you do brick it lucky you had bootmii installed and backed up ur NAND.

If you didn't..ur screwed

[vancar6]

@masterquest91 okay awesome!

I think after jailbreaking my iphone it has made me braver in the home brew section!

THANKS!!!

[Joshua21136]

@vancar6 I used to think that the homebrew channel couldn't harm my wii until I accidentally uninstalled my 0000001 title (Disc Channel title), with the homebrew channel. Title 00000001 is a title required to play wii games.

[TheGamerman1996]

@vancar6 The actual homebrew its self wont damage (in this case it would probably be called a brick which is like getting a virus on your wii) your wii, But When you get the roms for emulators (if your a pirater) thats where you could have problems if you dont have the highest version of the homebrew

[xan1242]

holy shit!

[76A50]

Hello I have a question how you have to install(settle) Windows 95 on wii

[NE0MEW]

why 95 why not XP? or at lest 98?

[agoaj]

Windows 95 is DOS based, not the same for new windows.

[NE0MEW]

well you could call this app wiidows 95

[zonemad96]

if you want to open a file in dos you have to type out text in windows 95 you actualy have a cousor and can click shit windows 95 has a gui

[piratehero1337]

You are very stupid, and you obviously know nothing about Windows. Even if XP was based on DOS (not NT) it wouldn't run on the wii's hardware.

Also, the app isn't Windows 95, it's DOS.

[MooseBaiit]

95 is more smaller file and run faster

[illuzionx2]

"because the nintendo wii IS at the forefront of numbercrunching and dataprocessing technology" (sarcasm)... god your a doofus for asking that question! and yes.... sarcasm is the lowest form of wit.

[chronotakayuki]

run mac os x on the wii xD

[ShadowChaosControl]

ew, why would you

[chronotakayuki]

its a joke

xD

congratulations

^^

[ShadowChaosControl]

lol, a mac OS could run on a toaster

[illuzionx2]

but no one loves mac

[ShadowChaosControl]

because they suck

[illuzionx2]

lol macs change people, only the snobbiest of people choose to use a mac over a pc... kinda like madonna, snobby bitch.

[jlenoconel]

No I meant to thumbs up you. Sorry!

[webdesignhints]

@ShadowChaosControl Old comment, I know. But I think you're thinking of NetBSD.

[akpokemon]

@ShadowChaosControl What? Is that a joke from something? Else, what kind of dis is that?

[nessnes64]

@ShadowChaosControl dont you mean a watch?

[Austeon347]

@ShadowChaosControl And Linux could be run on a piece of toast.

[SporeFan01234]

@ShadowChaosControl a linux OS can run on a peice of paper

[SalmonelaKid]

@ShadowChaosControl Well isn't that what it's running on?

[MrLokification]

@ShadowChaosControl lol, a linux os could run on a mac os
