Upgrading Windows from 1.0 to Windows 8 Pro - YouTube


It was Obin who did this. On the work machineVMware Workstation 9(64 bit version) installed. The virtual machine environment is CPUCore i7-3770 processor, Memory 32 MB, HDD 60 GB (IDE connection).


First of all install DOS to create an environment where "Windows" can be installed. I used MS-DOS 6.22 here.


Installation of MS-DOS 6.22 is completed.


Here, it appeared that FPS released in 1994 instead of Windows "DOOM II".



The start screen looks something like this


I do not want to play in games, but only to confirm that it works.


Save it as "DOS" ......


"PRESS Y TO QUIT TO DOS", I will exit the game and return to DOS.


From here it will take you to install Windows. Start MS - DOS ... ...


Insert disc


"Microsoft" logo is displayed ......


As you can see, the installation of Windows 1.01 was successful.


In addition, it upgraded to Winodows 2.0. Try changing the color etc. of the title bar of the window ......


Try playing with reversi.


Installation of Windows 3 from here.


The setup screen is now graphical


To this, "Windows 3.00 a".


Upgrading to 3.1, the logo familiar to you appears to be people touching Windows for about 20 years.


Also on the version notation screen, the Windows logo using familiar four colors appeared.


I will leave Minesweeper.


Open File Manager and start Windows 95 setup file.


Further installation screen evolved


"Plug and Play" which can be used easily without connecting any special setting to a PC when connecting peripheral devices was one of the main functions of Windows 95.


Some people may not be so familiar with the Windows 95 logo.


Version notation is like this. The color of the desktop is light green if it is the default, and the title bar is blue. On the yellow-green desktop the red title bar is due to Obin's setting.


Although Windows 95 became pretty good-looking, DOOM II can still play without change.


The change of Windows 95 to 98 seems not so big.



However, looking at the system tool from the start menu, "Drive converter" appears.


So far the file systemFAT (FAT 16)However, since FAT32 appeared in Windows 95 95 OSR, we will convert at this timing.


Next upgrade to Windows Me (Millennium Edition). Originally, "9x series" such as Windows 95 and 98 were scheduled to be integrated with "NT series" which was deployed for business, but the use of Windows 2000, which was the latest NT type OS at that time, by ordinary users From the judgment that it is difficult, it was released as the OS following Windows 98/98 SE (Second Edition). However, it was a very unstable operating system, and its reputation was not good.


The skin of Media Player has been greatly changed.


I changed the file system, so it seems to be partitioning using Linux here.


Me upgrade to Windows XP. Even now it is OS that is used by Bali Bali.


File system from FAT32NTFSchange to.


Furthermore, to Windows Vista Ultimate which is not so popular compared to XP ... ....


We started DOOM II for a while in Vista.


Still it can start up and play without problems.


The upgrade continued, and it finally reached Windows 7. Still it is not yet a goal ......


A slightly different Windows logo than before, a single color Windows logo appears.


Installation of Windows 8.


A startup screen with characteristic panel lines.


Looking at Apps, the character of old-fashioned "reversi".


As you are asked about 16-bit application support, click "Enable" ......


Reversi of Windows 2.x era started as it was.


In addition, select "Calendar". This is different from the calendar installed in Windows 8 ......


It was such a text-based calendar like this.


When "card file" is also started, this kind of old-fashioned screen.


Looking at the version information, the OS is Windows 8, but the license is Windows 3.1.


The name of the HDD remains the first "MS - DOS - 6".


"MSDOS.exe" is in the Windows folder ... ...


I started up and moved the folder and discovered DOOM II.


I try to start it, I can not start with an error.


Would it be like here ...?


And I think, ObinDOSBoxInstall MS-DOS emulator called.



This successfully launched DOOM II on Windows 8.


DOS, Windows 95, Windows Vista and the same thing as DOOM II which has been launched so far.


Game play is possible without problems.





Version notation is like this.


On what, it is unknown what inspired Obin. In the movie, all the journeys are organized in one hour, but in actual installations it takes from 10 minutes to 1 hour and it takes considerable time and effort.
