@@nappeywappey I thought so, but this video made me wonder. I remember Windows 2.0 being basically a GUI menuing system running on top of DOS, and there were a few applications that ran on top of Windows 2.0, but like I mentioned, I was not aware of Windows 1.0 ever being released to the public, but it's possible that it actually was and I just never became aware of it. I was in the U.S. when personal computers first started to really catch on and do not remember Windows 1.0 ever even coming up in conversation and since I was around quite a few people who were on the bleeding edge I assumed I would have heard of it or seen it if it had been publicly available. I do still remember being told about what a mouse was in the early 1980s, but didn't fully get it at the time. It was a few years later that I got hands on experience with Windows 2.0 and first laid my hands on a mouse, because there was software the name of which I can't recall at the moment that was referred to as a "desktop publishing" that required Windows 2.0 and since I was the computer operations manager at an Insurance firm, it was my job to get it set up to use for the person who was going to be using it. Anyway, if Windows 1.0 was released to the public, I would expect it would have been in the U.S. so maybe it was and I just never became aware of it. Seeing how little software there was that used Windows 2.0 when I was working with it, I wouldn't be surprised if it was just more or less ignored by most users because of how little usefulness it actually brought to the table.

This brings back memories. There's an interesting thing to note about the Windows 7 upgrade editions. They were made to work with Vista, and, as we've seen in this video, they do. But a lot of people were coming from XP. Upgrade editions mentioned that they work with both, but this wasn't quite true in practice. Upgrade editions that detected XP would refuse to actually install 7 as an upgrade. You actually had to do a complete reinstall. And worse, you go through all that, then try to activate your upgrade license to find that it doesn't work because it didn't count nuking XP as an upgrade, even though you didn't have much choice in the matter. You could actually have your cake and eat it though. Upgrade licenses have a trick to them that may or may not still work today. But back in the day, you do your steps with a fresh, non-upgrade install of 7. But when it's done, don't bother with activation yet. You reinstall again with your upgrade disc, picking the upgrade option! So you upgrade from Windows 7, to Windows 7. A waste of time, yes, but when the upgrade part is done, you can actually activate it. How did we find this out back in the day? Lots of people went through this during the era, where lots of people were moving from XP to 7 and bought upgrade editions because they were cheaper and were coming from either XP or Vista. You went searching on the internet about it because you upgraded from XP to 7. Upgrade license said it works going from XP to 7. Why doesn't it work? And you find out that that was how to do it from others who had the same problem. Fun times. Also, some stores didn't even have non-upgrade versions on sale. I recall never seeing them at my local Best Buy at the time. And besides, if you already had XP or Vista, why pay more money than you had to? The final kicker is that this trick also works for fresh installs done with an upgrade edition with no previous version of Windows installed beforehand. Not sure if it ever actually stopped working.

This video really drives home how annoying windows 11 requirements are. If I want to install Windows 11 on a potato I should be able to. It never used to bother them

The reason why the shutdown feature worked on newer versions of Windows is because it will be running a shell command (which sends a command to ms-dos) most likely carrying out a shutdown /s command which will instruct the operating system to shutdown and power off the computer

This was awesome work. It really shows how much work Microsoft has put into backwards compatibility feature.

This was a good example of how finicky it was to upgrade your pc back in the day. I had to reinstall windows many times when it would mess up, and had to upgrade from previous versions since I always had upgrade versions.

A few notes if you have to install Windows 95 or 98 again. If you copy the files to the local disk like you did it speeds up the process drastically. Also to keep it from doing a system inspection and scandisk you can do setup /ie /is /iv Windows 98 SE is what introduced the gradient, and a number of other innovative things. If you do have to do another upgrade process video I would recommend getting speakers to work on it. The chunky sounds from the early operating systems, and the amount of effort placed in the intro videos for the operating systems were amazing. I enjoyed the video, but it did seem that most of it was telling us to check out the VM variant of the same because it was more successful.

Hello Michael, Thanks for the wonderful video. I used to do these upgrades too as a student decades ago, because I really liked to tinker with the various OS versions, not necessarily all Microsoft based. I remember the Reversi problem. I always had to install the Windows 3.0 version of Reversi which was for some reason not included in Windows 3.1 or Windows 3.11. That exe file always opened in upgraded versions of Windows. I never got the Windows 2 versions to work.

31:24 I find it amazing how much Windows 95 looks like a modern desktop UI. I can tell 95 was a big deal at the time based on how little the fundamentals of Windows have changed since then

Having grown the entire framework for my current skillset in the 90s, I recognize every bit of this, and have even owned PCs older and slower than this before. Wow, this video makes me feel SO friggin old.

I find it pretty interesting that backwards compatibility actually increased over time! My best guess is there is two reasons, one is that up until Windows XP, most businesses just kept using older OS's, but XP was the first time they did a major upgrade (and Microsoft really pushed for this) The other reason is probably the switch to NT (funnily enough), since Microsoft developed the NTVDM and probably just went all in with compatibility and testing.

Hi Michael, loved your video from the start to the end, wish I had a older system running windows 98 or Ms Dos, those where some of my best years. I have a old Dos program call Pop Dos, just great, and my first Ms Dos program also, when the disk began to fail I remove the dater. Still have it to this day. My First computer was a Tandy 1000 RLX 25, those where the days.

Late to the show, but this was a ton of fun to watch. I was a bench tech that started out in 1993, so everything was still DOS/Win. We were cranking out the 'all new' mid-towers for offices - standard, under the desk layouts. 5.25 in the top slot, 3.5 in the second, optional Tape backup in the 3rd for several businesses. Our first Windows distro that we actually put on our machines and supported, was 3.11 for Workgroups with DOS 6.22. CD-ROMs came out and wow, we started putting them at the top, then the 5.25 and 3.5 below. Then 1995 came around and changed everything. Slightly faster CD drives, 5.25 drives were no longer installed unless specifically asked for (which did still happen occasionally) and of course - Win 95! Then 98 and especially 98SE. When I left the build/repair/support and moved on to network field tech... we were building 3 GIGABYTE systems (huge drives man lol) with internal ZIP or LS120 drives being common addons. I remember the awe over the first 24x read and 4x write CD Burner we got in. So may memories this brought back! What a great video. Thank you! :)

Thx for the interesting video. You'll almost certainly get better functionality if you fully update all versions prior to upgrade. For example, when going from Vista to Win7 I used to have to install all the Vista updates from Windows Update AFTER installing SP1, followed by SP2, followed by all remaining updates. Similarly, going from 7 to 8 or 10 requires SP1 and all updates. It's a pain, but over the years I got it to more or less a fixed routine, though some systems just refuse to play ball.

you make me very happy : ) you have made my day I hope you have a good day to keep making videos like these I really love these old computer videos!

In a lot of those old programs the acceptable DOS versions were determined by a "ver" command (or evuivalent) and the result compared to text in a setup CFG file. In other words, you could mess with the config file to tweak it so it worked on DOS versions that were later than the program. Ahhh, the days before security was an issue.

Interesting experiment! I've tried upgrading Windows 7 to Windows 10 on an old 2007 MacBook I had access to and I had similar problems as you did, but I never attempted v1 to Win 7 in any capacity! Great job!

Memories... . My first Windows was 3.1, never even seen previous versions hehe. Thank you for this vid 😁👍

Dude I love this video so much! Keep up the good work!

You can actually use a PS/2 mouse in Windows 1.0 by replacing MOUSE.DRV on the setup disk with the Windows 2.0 version. During installation, you can select the Microsoft Mouse option for PS/2 mouse support. Also, that garbage that appeared on the screen when you first started Windows 1.0 was likely caused by an incompatibility with the DOS version you were running. This can also be fixed with the command "SETVER C:\WINDOWS\WIN100.BIN 3.34". I've tested both patches in MS-DOS 6.22 and it works perfectly.

Best way to validate if a program is from Windows 1/2/3, 95, etc. is not to use the "About" option but in fact to open the file properties dialog and see what version stamp is embedded in the file. In Windows 95 they started embedding versioning info in the metadata. You're correct that programs will claim they're part of Windows 98 in the "About" dialog even when they're not because those programs are using Windows Common UI (which started in Windows 95).

It's a huge bit late but I want to share a detail I noticed about the MS-DOS Executive (MSDOS.EXE). At 41:37 and 57:54, when you clicked on Properties for MSDOS.EXE, it showed a mere 1 byte of size, which means the EXE file didn't contain the original contents. It might have been damaged somewhere between the Windows 95 and Windows Me upgrade. That must have been why the error message was "Not a valid Win32 application". If it was the correct EXE, it might crash or trigger a compatibility notice, but definitely not the valid Win32 application notice.

This vid is one of my favorite videos you have ever made and I have watched this video like 10 times

You could try upgrading the processor in it if possible to get one that can support the required items. You can also easily upgrade the ram since it was that uncommon at the time to have 1 to 2 GB. It’s not exactly the same as using the same PC, but if you can use the same motherboard and just change the CPU, that would be better than nothing.

I can’t believe I even watched this whole thing.

Vista is my favorite Windows OS besides 10. I like Vista because it had so much new stuff, Microsoft added the new stuff to later Windows OSs. The only reason why I like 10 is because it’s the newest Windows OS.

This was fun (a glimpse into my youth) .... I started with a VIC 20 and then 64 & Amiga & DOS 1.0 etc ... Thanks.

The optimum way to install Windows 1.x is to first install MS-DOS 5, because of incompatibility in DOS 6 for Windows 1.x and 2.x, and then install Windows 1.04 an IBM exclusive version of Windows 1.x with VGA and PS/2 compatibility. Windows 1.04 is also more stable than Windows 1.01. To get VGA, select IBM PS/2 Model 50, 60, 80.

Fun Fact: If you save your theme in Appearance Windows in 98/ME, you can actually reapply it in XP and up

This is my favorite video EVER! (Out of millions of vids) Get this man to 1M Subs.

Awesome video! Watched it in one go!

I remember the Vista requiring a minimum of 800 MHz CPU, and the 7 requiring 1 GHz. It's interesting how the Setup programs didn't complain about the CPU being too slow or the memory too small. As for the memory, Vista would be okay with the 512MiB OP's machine had, but 7 *should* need at least 1 GiB (at least Microsoft said that).

ooo a super long MJD vidya. I'm excited :D

I love to see you do this again but dull boot all the versions so you can boot in to them

would be curious to see speed tests run on this system compared to it run on a fresh Win7 install. See if the upgrades have degraded the experience at all

Thanks for all that work with the vidoe.

Great trip down memory lane. Thanks.

That was quite the fun journey to watch, but no surprises for me. I have been through every PC DOS/Win OS from DOS 3 to Win 11 (excluding DOS 4 which was a mess). A little sad Win 2K was excluded since it was the bridge between Win 95/98/ME and XP, but I get it since it mostly gained ground in business circles in place of NT4. I even still have a legitimate copy of Win 2K Pro in my software library.

That's quite common, but the issue here is most likely an already existing version of those files were in the C drive and the windows install was derping out because of it, deleting them probably would have allowed the install to progress.

can relate

The reason the MS-DOS Executive didn't work is because the file got corrupted along the way, during the Windows 3.1 upgrade. From Windows 3.1 and thus later versions of Windows, "MSDOS.EXE" is 1 byte in size.

Back in the day we found problems upgrading Windows versions failed when there was an early DOS virus which did not stop the current Windows version of the time from working, but upgrades would fail. Windows AV does not find DOS viruses and you would only find them using something like McAfee for DOS or Dr Solomons for DOS run from floppy. Viruses including Green Monkey, Magellan and Cascade were often found. Upgrading to Windows 95/98 might overwrite the virus so you would have to install DOS from scratch again formatting the disk to prove me wrong! Also you can scan the DOS and Windows disks on a modern anti-virus and you might not find the DOS virus so you really do need to start the install from scratch. Finally any non-write protected floppy will be infected if you read it from an infected DOS PC. Stay Safe!

Nice video thanks ! For the files not copying for Win 3.11 i think it's just the magnetism of the old floppy disks that is corrupted and files are not readable.

Color settings were lost because of the change from 16Bit to 32Bit. A similar phenomenon happens going from Win32 to Win64.

Whats kinda funny is how the old computers from the 1980's are worth hundreds of dollars but computers from the 1990's can be had for a few dollars.
