Windows 1.0 to Windows Vista - Microsoft Desktop History

[amkirby10]

By the way, Windows 7 SUCKS! Slow as shit and hard to use. Shit gets hidden and you can't find it. I have 3 computers at my house.

Computer 1: Windows XP Media Center.

It was good, but since it's so old, it sucks now.

Computer 2: Windows Vista Home Premium

Awesome, and I do everything on it

Computer 3: Windows 7

Hate it. It fucking sucks. Never use unless I need to.

[amkirby10]

I actually like Windows Vista :S

Also, Windows XP is the most common OS ever installed.

[shi0541]

old video before windows 7 & upcoming 8

[Lightnessdragon3157]

WINDOWS 7 IS THE BEST

[Lightnessdragon3157]

window 7 is faster and its no lag but when you buy hp window 7 notebook its looks nice

[Philmann94]

Windows 7 Suck, Windows Vista is Better

[NavyPanther54]

@Philmann94 are you high?

[razorath92]

@Philmann94 Are you fucked in the head?

[MegaGameFan100]

vista sucks

[MegaGameFan100]

vista is a remake of windows ME

[halostart78]

Windows XPs okay but Windows 7 sukes

[DojoKanojoCho]

I still use:

- Win3.11 for Workgroups, Win95 OSR2, Win98 SE on my first desktop PC

- Win2000 SP4, WinXP Home Edition, Vista Ultimate, Win7 Ultimate on my second desktop PC (all on one hard disk!)

- Vista Home Basic on my notebook

- MS-DOS 6.22, Win3.11, Win95, Win96 (a.k.a. Nashville)*, Win98 SE, Win99 (98SE BETA), WinNT 3.51, WinNT 4.0 and Windows Whistler (Win2000 BETA) as virtual machines.

Personally I can't say which version of MS Windows is the best, but I like very much Vista/Win7 design

[DojoKanojoCho]

@DojoKanojoCho

* - for more info about Nashville just check English Wikipedia (unfortunately they don't have anything about Win99)

[TheiPodBooklet]

Windows 7!

[crocodoom]

I use Vista. I honestly have to say i REALLY dont like XP, and I really want Windows 7.

[TheiPodBooklet]

@crocodoom

Want it for free? Download vuze and then search for "Windows 7 torrent" then download that. Then It automaticly downloads in vuze then open the file when done, burn the iso or extract it. Done. You will have windows 7(:

[tev866]

Windows 7!

[meskisz]

Windows XP owns all the others OS. Maybe win7 is something similar to it :).

[langej92]

I'm watching this on Windows Xp. :D, but I hate that extended support will end in 2014. :(

[ifilewe]

XP is good but it is not compatible with newer PCs

Vista is a lot better graphics and

Windows 7 is a lot better as we know it is the latest windows operating system.

[MrSky0000000001]

@ifilewe Isnt windows 8 the latest? Anyway xp is way better

[GameMaster337]

@MrSky0000000001 Windows 8 isn't 100% finished yet, so it doesn't count yet.

[nhking4]

@MrSky0000000001 the video is from 2008!

[MrSky0000000001]

@nhking4 oh lol....

[biggavdemille]

I think from memory you have missed a really important step that should have slotted in after windows3.1 ? the introduction of networking in version 3.11 ? Maybe wrong but its a version i used a long time with quirky network functionality . great video thanks.

[IronWolvesBand]

7 :)

[sonic2277]

Windows 95 had such a boring interface.

[MrHendude1]

mac lion is the best

[elFuego29]

I remember ME pretty good. Far worse than Vista... since 7 is such a good OS, I really wonder what 8 will be like :D

[HeistPvP]

@elFuego29 Anything past XP was shit. XP will forever be the best, and they killed Windows by discontinuing service for it. Win7 and Vista? Both pieces of fucking shit.

[TheDarkthunder67]

@elFuego29 ME is rubbish and windows 3.1 was the worse

[10newsrox]

I think I'll stick to my Mac Osx Lion...

[xilefian]

I'd say that Mac OS revolutionised the user experience on a computer, System 7 kind of defined the modern look of computers that windows 95 had to catch up to.

Did you know that the original copies of windows 95 did not come with internet explorer as Microsoft believed the world wide web was a fad that would die out in a few years time? That's what the "Internet Explorer" upgrade was that was mentioned in this video.

[kocka311]

Windows Vista I Favourite 100000%

Windows 7= Shit!!Worst!!Stupid!!!

Windows XP= GOOD

[jakeypearce]

@kocka311 No mate, Vista= Awful

Windows 7= Better than Vista

Windows XP= Robust, reliable, compatiable.

[codmad1000]

Whats better windows 2000 or windows ME

[gizmocraft]

I Have Windows 7 Pro 64Bit

Windows 2K Pro

Windows Xp

Windows 95

2kpro xp and 95 are done via virtualbox

[MyStada]

Hey where did you get those mods?

because i cannot find them!

[asdfg12345QW456]

2000 is better then me because me look older then 2000

[bj615]

Good video, except for the jerky hopping around and dual cursors in some screens... Glad to see the history of Windows in 10 mins.

[thecomputerman12121]

Windows 2.03: Swearing at you in more languages then before!

[MrMambo11]

@thecomputerman12121

Go To Hell :o(

[theDoomguy2011]

where did you get the virtual machines?

[oskarchust1]

i still use windows 98 in my computer collection



[MrMambo11]

Windows 98 Is The Best

If Anybody Says its rubbish

Then I will make Fun Of there Fav Computer

?

[thecomputerman12121]

@MrMambo11 Windows 98 SUCKS BAD.

Windows 3.11 With Internet Explorer (Actually a version!) RULES! Now make fun of my computer that came with Windows 98 that I downgraded too 3.11

Trollface. But it's true.

[jakeypearce]

@MrMambo11 XP or 98? Personally XP. 98 isn't bad though.

[MrMambo11]

I Use Xp and 98 and 7

im a Kid

8 Years Old

[peacemusicbelinda]

I remember them all from 92, so cozy : > And I am in love with your voice, brittish accent ftw! (if that was brittish accent and not just an retarded american or somethin´;) ). Ehm, yes, that was my expert opinion ^^

Peace out!

[FoxyGrandPa98]

win98 was my child hood and I miss that operating system

[tuxcup]

NT4?

[SuperMario32game]

@tuxcup He didn't have it!

[19629924]

Vista is released 2006 not 2007

[ProductionLines]

by the way windows me is not a mistake it was the operating system the started xp, if they didn't do me then xp wouldn't exist.

and me is linked to xp, vista, 7 and soon to come 8 (Windows Octan)

[ProductionLines]

i have 4 computers in my room.

one is Windows 95

one is windows 98 (second edition)

one is windows me

and one is windows vista

the best one out of all of them is "windows me" and second is vista

[toisver]

xp!

[ScaryBlackSpider]

Windows 3.1 reminds me of GEOS for basic

[kght222]

get win 3.11, network/internet support

[khalidsameer2]

the amazing video ever i think the xp is the best version of windows

[linkinpark2206]

how can anyone like this os

[jjovereats]

This is not CR** head. This is just slight bent to Windows. I like Linux and use several versions of it.

[Falconpunch82]

Did you have to download each of these operating systems in some emulator? Also were they all free? plz answer this video was so cool and I would love to explore Windows 1 :)

[60sfreak97]

Windows xp is the best. It's quite simple. It's been widely used for 10 years and will probably continue to be used for a long time to come. :)

[Superloquendero1999]

Publish the link for download!

[golde555]

xp is so stable but vista is really unstable and what surprises me is that xp is more old

[jackanoryjames]

@mobilephone2003 but can you copy and paste a Ferrari.

[gagertymsk]

95 has some errors xD



[mrcurs93]

[kocka311]

@Macintosh3745 Yes!!!! Vista Win!!!!

[Macintosh3745]

Windows 1.x = WOOT! OLD!!! Windows 2.x = Windows 1.X w/ UI improvements Windows 3.x = Easiest to install Windows NT 3.X = Havent used it Windows 95 = My first os ever on an acer desktop (one of the best os' here) Windows NT 4.x = Windows 95 with some stability improvements Windows 98 = Haven't used it. Windows 98SE = My first VM ever. (still one of the best) Windows 2K = WOOT EPIC LOLZ!!! Windows ME = Loved it - fricking fast :) (one of the best) Windows XP = Very pretty.

[MrTztokjad]

I have used: Windows 3.1.1 (2yrs), Windows 95(3yrs), Windows 98(3yrs), Windows XP(7yrs), Windows Vista (3yrs) [had xp and vista on 2 different computers] windows 7 (1.5yrs) Mac OS X Snow Leopard with Windows 7 in boot camp.

[MrTztokjad]

windows 3.1.1 was the first OS I used, I was 2 when 95 came out and we got 95 once it was released. I remember when windows 97 was planned to be released.

[DerEchteGangsterFan1]

Since Windows Vista gets viruses easily, it should be called Windows Virus.

[Macintosh3745]

@DerEchteGangsterFan1 Windows Vista is WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAYYYYYYYYYY BETTER than windows 7 and anything else!! WINDOWS VISTA FOR THE WIN!!!

[2001steffy]

[anirocks11]

[jointhe4ce]

What's sad is that 1.0 is better then Vista.

[kocka311]

@jointhe4ce No Vista Win!!!!

[nintendofan9797]

I have a virtual machine for vista and I am going to partition my hard drive and have a boot sector for vista by moving everything to it.

[ReddoFreddo]

Windows XP visual themes suck!!!!

[Grinch1800]

Im proud that I lived through that era, Im born in 1990 and we got our first pc in 1999 wich had Win 98', schoolmate got 95' and 98 was bad ass. then we switched XP and its still the best. Many younger guys may not remember these of course.

[JimKav1]

Where did you find the Windows 2.03 img file?

[marcdubai]

[Tiloubrunet]

[TheRubberJony]

Mac, Windows and Linux in a room. Mac talks about how stabe its OS is and Windows talks about how many copies its sold. Linux comes over and says hi. Mac and windows break the glass to get the emergency crowbar under the sign saying *Break glass incase Linux trys to talk to you*. What happens next is not pretty. All i can say is Windows wins.

Mac is the best!!

[googzeez]

CP/M -> QDOS -> MS-DOS -> Windows 1 -> Windows 2 -> Windows 3 -> Windows 95 -> Windows 98 -> Windows ME -> Death. Goodbye, MS-DOS!

[JimKav1]

@googzeez do you mean death of MS-DOS, or death of a personal computer because of windows ME?

[googzeez]

@JimKav1 Moreso the classic Windows environment I grew up on.

[ChocolateRabbitEars]

The ones i like.

Windows 1.01 ( Even though it looks WAY to confusing.)

Windows Xp

Windows vista ( My favorite)

[ChocolateRabbitEars]

@ChocolateRabbitEars I meant Windows 1.0

[kocka311]

@ChocolateRabbitEars Yes Vista Win!!!

[illage2]

XP Media centre edition is awesome, it came with the Royale theme which looked well nice.

[RacerXGTO]

Back in the day, when IT was a respectable field, we ran Windows 3.1 on an early Enterprise network. We really pushed Win3.1 to its limits with Banyan Vines, TCP/IP, Humming Bird(unix) and AS400 emulation, in some cases all loaded on 1 PC workstation. AUTOEXEC and CONFIG were something of a memory management work or engineering art to load everything just right using EMM386 to stack everything just right. There's only so much you can do with 640K base memory on DOS 6.22.

[RacerXGTO]

Pt.2 - THEN, there was always some weirdo in the group, there's always one no matter where you go. In addition to having the home site Banyan VINES login, they wanted a Novell login for their remote site. We had a detailed procedure of how to properly load and stack both Banyan and Novell in the AUTOEXEC and CONFIG files, because if they were not loaded according to the document, nothing would work. The best way to mess that up, was the typical user who ran MEMMAKER who toasted their PC.

[AndreiUngurenasu]

1985 is the best.... it started it all....

[boogioogigoof]

And... can you believe it? REVERSI!!!!!!

@winter32842

So you say Windows 95 is the best?

And 3.1 is 5th?

I've used 3.1 about 5,000 times and I'm STILL confused by it.

[LucyLabrador1]

That was interesting, thanks!

[TheSwanies]

1.01 - 3.0 was no operating systems. Only operating enviorments(programs for DOS)

[geminigirl6879]

I had a WinMe and I honestly COULD NOT KILL IT. I don't know if it was the BRAND of system (Gateway) or I got one of the 'good' versions, but when I finally stopped using it in '08, it STILL ran decently!

[SuperMICHAELCA]

based on signifanate

no its win 7

win xp

win 2000

win 98

win 95 win 3.1

win me

win vista

[WindowsGeek12]

How did you get windows 1/2

[taytay7able1]

Whatever no it all

[MrAidzyo]

Is ME really that bad

[AdmiralMadox]

@MrAidzyo Yes ME blowed dude.

[unknownorigin84]

Windows ME=Mistake Edition

[THUMPBUMPDUDE]

@unknownorigin84 definately, I had a computer with ME and it was TERRIBLE

[VBEducation1]

@unknownorigin84 Windows ME=Windows Millenium Edition

[saltman90]

@VBEducation1 havce u herad of sarcasim idiot

[VBEducation1]

@saltman90 is there any reason to scold me for saying the correct words?

[VBEducation1]

@saltman90 YOURE an idiot

[saltman90]

@VBEducation1 nope u

[IamMeUareYou]

@unknownorigin84 Windows 98SE = Shit Edition.

[ciberkid22]

@IamMeUareYou how is 98 SE bad?

[IamMeUareYou]

@ciberkid22 why not? dont cry

[ciberkid22]

@IamMeUareYou Im not crying. i'm just asking how windows 98 SE so bad that's all. i was confused.

[IamMeUareYou]

@ciberkid22 well, why not SE be bad?

[darksinthe]

lol windows ME = Windows Memory Error

[TheTheAyberk]

@darksinthe really ?

[nashbored1231]

@darksinthe

You fail. lol

[darksinthe]

@nashbored1231 lol.... why? It was a joke. ME had a ram leak that microsoft denied and never fixed because they wanted you to buy the newest version. Actually, saying I fail is saying thousands of computer techies fail too because it was a big saying for a long time. So, yeah... YOU fail.

[nashbored1231]

@darksinthe

Actually you can say fail as many times as you want. If you are trying hard to joke.

Of course memory was very limited. The ram was very very medium. But hey, it was a really good computer. Windows Me was one of the most advanced computers before XP.

So you fail.

[darksinthe]

@nashbored1231 ram was medium? Don't you mean mediocre? Windows isn't referred to as a computer, either. It's called an operating system. ME was written for the average newer computer at the time, with the amount of RAM they had on average so no, it wasn't 'limited'. It had a MEMORY LEAK. Go Google 'Windows ME memory leak". Plz don't argue about stuff when you have no idea what you're talking about. It makes u sound like a fool.

[taytay7able1]

Um there's no such thing as windows 1.0 & 2.0 the oldest version is 3.1 and is the first duh 

[HammersGamingChannel]

@taytay7able1 Errrrm no Windows 1.01 was the first one in 1985 and Windows 2 was realised in 1987. 

[xlixity]

@taytay7able1 you're kidding right?

[gremanboy]

pro was the better one



[JeffDrennen]

Good video. We where way behind when it came to upgrading. DOS to 95 to XP. sad I know.

[brutaka359]

I still remember when I was 3 years old and I used to paint in windows 3.1 all day long! My dad was also one of the very first people to buy windows 95, he was mad when he eventually got to windows 2000 because he misses the old days, as do I :)

[SuperMICHAELCA]

@brutaka359 i loveed to paint on 95

[TheTechnoToast]

windows 1.0 is better than vista

[JimKav1]

@TheTechnoToast But XP was, is, and will be THE BEST!

[TheTechnoToast]

@JimKav1 yes, yes, and yes. :-)

[Macintosh3745]

@TheTechnoToast other way round vista is epic!! windows 7 sucks it is worst os ever

[TheTechnoToast]

@Macintosh3745 what OS do you use? coz you'd have to have windows 7 to say it sucks

[Macintosh3745]

@TheTechnoToast I dual boot between Windows 7 professional and Windows Vista Ultimate

[TheTechnoToast]

@Macintosh3745 so u have vista and 7? and you think windows 7 sucks over vista? wow.

[RyanPerson]

Yeah xp was great. I use 7 now and it's not bad.  It actually runs some older programs even better than xp did

[TheSmrtMouth]

Windows XP had to be my favorite operating system but come on guys, we gotta move on! We can't stay stuck in the past forever. Sure Windows Vista was a disaster and Windows 7 is great but not as great as XP, but we don't want to get lost in the past. Besides, sooner or later there will be an operating system that comes out that is much better than Windows XP. IIt sounds hard to believe but who knows? They might make an XP-like OS that is even more stable and much cooler. We just gotta wait and c

[KrK6EST9]

@AppleKidzTechTak

x DDDD

thats the silliest thing i'v ever heard from eanyone to date xD

"xp is horrible" its much better than the other wins out, 7has app unstability issues,vista alot of issues 2k dont even get eanyone started,xp some system unstabilityes w using the system in more system speciffic tasks&uses, but better then most on apps,owerall quite ok (iv seen the special back door built in to win-s & how it was used getting into & take complete controll of a win xp/vista/7 in minutes)

[AppleKidzTechTak]

@KrK6EST9 windows XP support is phasing out in 2014

[NaishiMioshi]

@AppleKidzTechTak I thought it already ended,

[KrK6EST9]

@AppleKidzTechTak

AppleKidzTechTak: "then its you, the OS is great. if you ever messed..."

All out of the box,and never worked propperly,i think on that, what to do with pcs i'm on the level, esspecialy with windows os-es(now with meny linux distros too), have used and done alot with all the win versions ever done. I have aboat the same year count of windows experience as your age,so i think i know how2 use win, ps never messed with win nor bad soft like most&u as ivseen & i keep mypcs clean

[KrK6EST9]

@KrK6EST9

update we got a new laptop with coreI cpu and ram much more than ever needed for normal use, it has Win 7 home premium and it fracking has crashed like every week several times, all software on it are higly stable and all original soft, only for internet use, and is called to Win 7 compadible, it has crashed like while browsing while gaming and even waching moveys on dvd. All drivers and soft are at stable release stage and updated.

[KrK6EST9]

@Fleshshredder Actualy there are few, but they only work if the user is stuped and had a admin password like root or admin or god or something like that, otherways the system is quite secure, cos the viruses and badware cant do much more than be copyed to the pc (if u copy a infected file) not much more, cos if eany program wants to do something bad it needs admin rights, it only can modify data on the users home folder nowere else, it cant even del the user itself cos that's too secured.

[beratalbania]

biggest revolutions > windows 95 > windows xp > windows 7 > [new os here]

[antza2]

@beratalbania 7 wasn't really a revolution, it was just a better version of vista.

[PSNelibeerbelly]

I knew the difference instantly!

Windows 1 - Old Gold

Windows Vista - New Shit

[kocka311]

@PSNelibeerbelly No Vista Win!!!

[GarrysSketch]

can you tell me where to get all those windows virtual machines? i would like to get them

[MrGermanBratwurst]

@GarrysSketch Get a virtualization Application and buy the Windows CDs. Install it on the software and you are finished.

What was used in video was: VMWare

Something which is free:

Virtualbox

VirtualPC2007
