Windows 95 built in Minecraft

haven't you been working on this for a year and why 6:18 as the time is there something you're not telling us?

Ah, yes, a based operating system, finally someone who understands until someone within the community who I wouldn't name.

↩  simplynick we're just going to forget the time i tried to install 95 in a vm and it worked despite this same geezer who built this said it was impossible. okay senior

↩  lyicx I successfully installed Win95 in VirtualBox too.
After downloading and installing MS-DOS because my CD wasn't bootable.
After downloading and installing a CDROM driver in MS-DOS.
After looking for a valid product key.
After downloading and installing a patch or my installation would fail to boot with hw virtualisation because of too fast CPU.
After downloading and installing a cracked video driver or I'd be stuck on laggy 640x480.

you cant boot directly into the CD with 9x Operating systems. you'd have to boot into DOS like you did or the windows 95 boot floppy which came with windows back in the day

i never had to do that on a fresh install of 95 in a vm, but noticed i did when i was doing an upgrade fest with @"TylerTT"#131. CDROM drivers come with the above floppy

fuckin type a bunch of 1's actually that might not work on later copies of 95. fair point

yeah this is unfortunately true, CPU's over 2.1GHz will fuck with protection shit and you'd need a manual patch for it. not that hard fortunately

cracked video driver?? VMWare i just had to get VMWare tools installed and manually install the video drivers from the right folder. why the hell did you have to get a dodgy video driver? i mean i dont touch virtual box with a fuckin curtain pole anymore but surely there had to be some video drivers in its guest additions even if you had to do it manually

As a 90's chick, I love this!

Windows 95 was the first OS I ever used.

↩  Windows Same here! It's crazy how I went from Win95 to MacOS Big Sur in the meantime. Technology advances way too fast, but in a good way.

Nope, VB devs don't support OSes after their EOL. When I started using it the oldest supported version of Windows was XP.

I've just remembered it wasn't actually cracked, the download included a license key.

↩  Windows My first pc ever was a Sanyo office computer gifted by a friend of my father. I remember having Intel 386, MS-DOS 6.21 and Windows 3.1.
Some years later my family bought a modern pc with XP. Quite a jump in technological advance in my home.
