A Complicated Windows 95 SSD Video

[@CoyoteSeven]

This was so fun to watch. I learned this lesson ages ago and watching you, I actually relived my pain. Nowadays, copying over the install directory to the drive I wanted to install Win95 on would have been the first thing I'd have thought to do!

[@hannah5269]

in case anyone was wondering, 4404 days is like 12 years

[@sadmac356]

Yeah I went and did the math on that too...

[@igemily]

What the fuck

[@deneb_tm]

This motherboard has the most irritating POST beep sound ever.

[@qwertykeyboard5901]

@Myronaz same

[@raven4k998]

@SummerRain well your in luck as it's very very easy to make your dreams come true if you want your motherboard to make that sound as you just need to buy and install a pc speaker or motherboard speaker and then you to can have those classic beeps from your computer they can be bought on amazon among other places or try using some water in the right spot may also work

[@raven4k998]

@SummerRain well then you need to hit the motherboard with a hammer until it does make that sound on start up lol or try using some water in the right spot you just have to keep trying till you get just the right fuck up with the motherboard so it makes the same type of beep never give up never surrender

[@tillytony]

Challenge if you choose to accept it. Install Windows 8 on a VM inside Windows 10. Then install 7 on a VM from inside the 8 VM. And keep going using older and older OS and see how far you can go :)

[@Druaga1]

+tillytony You're on to something there.

[@sortaspicey9278]

+tillytony i like this idea

[@cleanycloth]

+Druaga1 The only thing is that you might have to alternate VM software. I know that VPC2007 detects if you run itself inside itself - it won't let you run it. Not sure about the others but it's probably easiest to do VMware and VirtualBox.

[@99domini99]

Did this on my PC a few months ago. My PC has an Athlon ii X4 860k and 12gb of ram. I ran Windows 10, with a VM of Windows Vista, inside that XP and inside that 95 on the XP level it already became horrendously slow.

[@Branhower1]

+tillytony ...and to make it a long video, installing PearPC for OS X in an emulated machine, then running Basilisk II with System 7 inside the PearPC emulated machine.

I think the only reason Druaga still makes these videos is because the motherboards are still weed colored.

thats a good enough reason to make videos

What I used to do back in the early days of Windows 95 was to copy all the setup files to the C drive, then boot from a floppy (ok all the computers had floppys back then) then run the setup from the hard drive and all went well.

[@williamreid6255]

just when you think that Windows 95 installations shouldn't be complicated, this video exists to prove otherwise. Excellent work, Druaga.

[@Natuu1106]

I really enjoy watching your videos!! best content ever! Love u

[@Natuu1106]

P.S: Where's Druaga from?

[@e7868]

USA, I think.

[@jturner718]

My guess is that Windows installed itself to the SSD but then placed the bootloader on the Hiren's USB, but the SSD 95 install was somehow configured to look for the bootloader on that USB.

[@jayh5896]

this is where the sys command comes in handy.

[@andries1654]

Good guy drauga, does not want to give us the win95 serial. But after 46:00 minutes he shows it on screen anyway. Must be al that dank gt420 smoke

[@Lothairecliquennois]

+andries It's not the product key.

[@jturner718]

The whole "copy the setup files to the hard drive" is how most everyone I know had Windows 9x towards the end of it's useful life.

[@UlzYT]

Fun Fact: You can generate product keys for Windows 95. The first 5 digits are a day in the form of: Day of year: Actual year from 95-03 Next string is for all digits to add up to a number divisible my 7, but the last number can't be 0, 7, 8 or 9. The last 5 digits are irrelevant. Enjoy!

[@MaskedGEEK]

Hands up to see if +Druaga1 can get Windows 3.1 installed to an SSD.

[@nigelcooper1191]

I don’t know if you noticed but the usb that booted Win95, when you looked at the capacity it said “4.20GB free” 420!!!

[@Anamnesia]

You bring back all of my memories having to multiple re-install the early Windows OS's... I was once told that the product key for Windows 95 only requires the last 5 digits in the key to be wholly divisible by 7. Meaning, you can put any crap in the first part of the product key & "77777" in the last 5 digits & it will accept the product key.

[@Fiddlesticks86]

3:47 RAMiplier xD Laughed so hard!! Really good =P and Subbed!!

[@Halterung01]

I just OBSed 1 minute and thirty seconds of your video at 56:00 with your profile picture and your KZbin name and a part of the description to my facebook wall making a bit of an advertisement for you, hope it's okay. It was just too hilarious not to share and absolutely nobody in my friends list would have watched the entire thing :D

[@Tech101yt]

56:27 "fuck up the computer entirely" 😂

[@Jooglesberry]

The Lenovo S10 netbook has that same Atom. Am currently trying to make it a Hackintosh. Windows 10 runs pretty bad on it, though KZbin is surprisingly good at 480p.

[@chrisfratz]

Jooglesberry how's the Hackintosh-ing working out

[@Jooglesberry]

I used the S10 enabler and it works great.

[@KimPossibleShockwave]

Bar of soap SSD, dynamite power-supply, pizza-box insulation, and RAM sticks thrown around like breadsticks. I fucking love it! :D

[@Laziter73]

A bit late in the game, I know :D I noticed your SSD was on IDE channel 2, that may have caused some of the problems you experienced. On some installations of Win95 that I've made in the past, it would only work from IDE channel 1. This may not be true in this case, but it's worth a try swapping it to channel 1. At least it would make another fun video :D Thanks for this one, I had a good laugh while watching it :)

[@qazyman]

This may be the single greatest thing I've ever seen.

[@zusurs]

Just to mention - Win9x and FAT will kill SSD drives (as well as CompactFlash or other solid-state drives) very fast because of the lack of TRIM command support.

I'm watching you, Druaga1. Also, on a scale from one to ten what is your favourite color of the alphabet?

[@krzysztofb9279]

its hard watching this while i experience the same feelings with my pentium 2 that its actually designed for.... lol... but here is a tip that i hope you see. 1) download a "windows 98" boot disk from winworldpc.com/product/microsoft-windows-boot-disk/95 2) load from floppy 3) run the command format c: /s which should write command.com to your hdd you should hopefully be able to get cdrom support this way or at least give you a bootable c drive to dos for further experiments. i learned this as a wee little lad building my first pc. hope this helps and or gives you new avenues to try in windows 95 installs. and yes i know im refering you to the windows 98 boot disk as it was easier to work with but you can try both if you want. hope this helps phoon

[@NallTWK]

Some years ago, I bought an IDE to Compact Flash adapter to install a diskless Linux OS called BrazilFW. Its purpose was to act as a router. Eventually that computer died, and I bought one of those compact black IBM ThinkCentre desktops. It would not play nice with the IDE adapter though, so I had to use a USB card reader. Eventually I lost that computer, and I bought another IBM ThinkCentre, and for this one I actually bought an ssd. It doesn't have much storage, but works nicely for just hosting a standalone firewall. It could probably do much more, but either way, old hardware still has its uses.

[@rinzler1337]

"Fuck up your computer entirely" I fucking died.

[@coletheviking3214]

where do you buy your dos os because I have a collection of os installation disks and I need it in my collection

[@Hogdriva]

My EVGA SR-2 from 2012 (very high end dual Xeon overclockable motherboard) has that same looking bios, it's pretty funny and oldschool.

[@deneb_tm]

So does my Gigabyte GA-EP35-DS3.

[@loganiushere]

My Gigabyte Motherboard from 2012 has a Dual (Built in reflash) UEFI BIOS

[@colasalbert7860]

AND I HAVE AN ASUS MOTHERBOARD

[@ZILOGz80VIDEOS]

does that thing have PATA and if what model number is the board? I'm using a VIA ITX board in my dos computer and EMM386 is not a big fan of it. Also you could always use an industrial DoM for windows 9x ssd purposes.

[@WeebLabs]

Hehe. I do enjoy watching your SSD shenanigans.

[@joshbatchelor535]

I love your videos SO much. Please keep doing stuff!!!!!!!

[@kylek.3689]

I love it when people do technical shit like this. Keep it up, it's entertaining :-D! --EDIT-- Windows 95 can run on SATA because computer manufacturers make sure as hell that everything is backwards compatible as feasibly possible. Keeping 16 bit real mode, IDE Compatibility layers, stuff like that.

[@nilswegner2881]

druaga was running in ide mode on this board but i have also experienced issues when i tried to use my sata cd drive in ide mode on my asrock n68-s

[@yueibm]

I wonder what fdisk /mbr and SYS D: would've done. I've only seen SYS C:... but fdisk /mbr has restored my bootloader before when I wrote lilo onto the wrong drive.

[@friend8124]

Nice video. I once installed windows 95 on a VM Hosted from a SSD, from an Windows 95 ISO running in a virtual drive, once I got it working it was the quickest windows install iv ever seen. Only OS that ever beat me was ME, could never get it on anything!

This board was likely built to run MS-Dos anyways for old school MS-dos based terminal systems for cash registers, but even still, surprised to see Win95 even attempt to load on such a new MB, the IDE emulation mode is what made this at all possible running on the SSD, if you only had AHCI mode available, then you would be SOL

[@TopazTK]

Some motherboard have the ability o change the SATA initilization mode. This mode has 2 options that can be set: AHCI and IDE. If you set the said mode to IDE, it will see the SATA interface as an IDE interface and you will have no problems.

[@pvc988]

To be able to boot in normal (not safe) mode you should probably let the BIOS to handle disk access. I'm sure you can do it in Win95 but I don't remember how. Then install TCP/IP protocol (yes you have to do that manually in W95) and you can use IE3 on the Internet in 2016. Of course if you manage to find W95 drivers for your network adapter :) Alternative to network adapter is to use SLIP if this board has a serial port. Have fun.

[@cyberdg2738]

It'll go laggy on windows 10 most probably because windows only installs the driver for the resolution and thats that. It makes sense it works on Windows 7. Good video though, keep it up!
