the 90s was the best decade ever, I wish I was born in the early 90s or late 80s but sadly I was born in 98... so I barley experienced it. Luckily my parents kept windows 98 until about 2002, I had alot of fun using it and watching the cool space travel and maze screensavers
i had so many virtual pc almost all versions of windows i remember installing this one and da welcome music and my pc harddrive got a virus and all the iso's were on it :(
When I was 5 years old I'd go on my grandpa's computers and turn the volume all the way up, then start this on both of them at the same time so I could hear this song.
i was on my virtual pc windows 98 vhd and this came on i like the song. but everytime the bell comes on i think ac/dc is about to play xD u know? hells bells?
Ahh, the fond memories of this window coming up on boot even if I didn't tell it to, then locking up while it was trying to do the dissolve animation and taking about five minutes to finally respond again! I do indeed miss that old computer!
its a 90's decades of computing experience when the computer age starts until the 2000,,right now,, its a huge changes has been changed in our computer life experience in the world.
Such originality and creative energy back then. Sounds a little like the intro to Sweet Emotion, but that bell puts it in a class of its own. This was one of the greatest things I'd ever heard. Now, everything's flaccid, idiotic, antiseptic and BORING.
when you think about it during much of the 90's and early 200's they were in a "war against the goverment" for antitrust. and they were dealing with alot of other things to. not many changes with 95/98/xp. now thats all over and here comes windows 7. welcome back microsoft
Not sure if you're interested, but the welcome.exe will play on other versions of windows, above 98, well kind of. To do so, install 98 in virtual pc. Once installed, go to C:/ Windows in your virtual pc and normal windows, find WELCOME.EXE in 98, drag it into your normal windows (xp, 7 etc) windows folder. Then in your normal windows windows folder, make a folder call application data, then inside that, a folder called microsoft. Go back to 98, drag welcome folder to microsoft folder on xp 7
@UploadVideos247 , thank you very much, but i meant "where i can get in inet(bittorrent etc.) FULL version on this song?". i'm not sure that item sounds 30 seconds long only. (excuse for my poor English, it isn't my native language :)
@amrit98ify This isn't a video file, its part of the EXE file, you can't download it, (unless you use a program that downloads YouTube videos) - You can find it in Windows 98 at C:\WINDOWS\WELCOME.EXE
I just installed windows seven not 3 minutes ago but I would gladly downgrad to windows 98 to her this song again. (that is, if just refreshing the screen were not possible) lol
I used to have windows 98 when I was 5. but my mom & dad replaced it with a shitty windows xp computer. my grandparents used 2 have it 2 and they replaced it with anoter shitty windows xp. I hate windows xp.but my windows xp computer is now gone to past :)
@gizanator it was crap like probably the worst version of Windows I ever saw. Windows 95b was so much better on the slower computers of the time I found 98 was so slow on my Pentium 75 but 95 ran sweet. The simple reason was IE4 slowed it down. Also it had nothing new if you had Windows 95b + IE4 + Plus95! you had almost all of Windows 98.
ME I found was a bit more stable but the best was Windows 2000 and then XP once Microsoft released Service Pack 2. Then it went downhill again with Vista.
@gizanator Oh sure. I loved having to restart my computer every time I plugged something in and I just loved having to download drivers for flash drives. Windows XP for me 9 years and running.
the 90s was the best decade ever, I wish I was born in the early 90s or late 80s but sadly I was born in 98... so I barley experienced it. Luckily my parents kept windows 98 until about 2002, I had alot of fun using it and watching the cool space travel and maze screensavers

@StickGuy1994 Unless your joking, here's the thing:
1. more than half of those programs aren't designed for Windows 98
2. No argument there.
3. While cool, they are really outdated.
4. Windows 98 won't even run on newer computers without virtual machine because its not compatible with new computer parts.
