Windows 95, just listen to that startup!

Re: Windows 7 or Windows 8?
Funny enough I'm actually trying to get the oldest system together I possibly can. I think with the hardware I have, 2000 is the oldest one that will work. There might be a possibility of getting 98 to boot on a couple of boards I have, but the problem is drivers. I'm pretty sure there's no Realtek HD audio drivers for anything under 2000 so getting it to work won't be easy.
Also I love the old start up sounds

You could also use a virtual machine to try a bit, the different WindowsSteo wrote:Funny enough I'm actually trying to get the oldest system together I possibly can.

Re: Windows 7 or Windows 8?
Virtual machines are cool, but I was just doing it to try get one running for real since I have a lot of spare parts. Windows 98 was on my first PC I ever had. I played a lot of solitaire and used MSpaint a lot back then 
The funny thing is that was like 2004 or 2005 if I remember it right so it was really outdated. Still though, those were the days.
I was just happy to have a computer and OS like that since all I ever had before that was consoles. I have no idea why, but my dad wouldn't let me get a PC for a long time despite the fact that we would have no internet anyway. Maybe he was just paranoid about stuff.

Didn't Fifo prefer Windows 98? The OS that was out of date years before he was born?
