After Dark's Disney Screensavers - Exploring a BRAND NEW Copy!

[@ora2j251]

Ahhh, yes a 30 minutes video on just screensavers.

[@mon9519]

sanest michael mjd video tbh

[@iloveitwhenusuffer]

just what i subbed for!

[@ninethetwotailedfox]

Gotta love it.

[@tsunsharks]

listen, sometimes i wanna listen/watch to a 30 minute video on disney screensavers

[@takbeslah2000]

yes

[@ThatBulgarian]

its amazing that genuine dev time was put into all of these/other screensavers when in reality the best saver is just full black

[@jejeroy]

You successfully made me watch a 30 mins about Disney screensavers and for some reasons this video made me feel like when i was discovering windows 98 demo software back in the day !

[@edwardwilliams5460]

18:40 first time seeing Donald Paints and that's actually really cool. I'm shocked they have all of this for 3.0, it for sure livens the experience up in my opinion.

[@matthesse9982]

My elementary school has the Sorcerer's Apprentice running on one of their office computers back in the mid 90's. Always soothing to watch while waiting to get yelled at by the principal.

[@SavvySage]

Did not expect you to make a video on an After Dark screen saver product, let alone one in-box... ...and it did not disappoint. : )

[@michealpersicko9531]

Well screensavers are starting to become more useful again now that everyone has OLED TVs that do experience burn in despite the marketing claims. Everything that's old is new again even the worst bits of tech

[@ninjaboi230]

I'd love to see a video of you doing a video on the regular After Dark screensavers. That would blow all our nostalgic meters up lol. One of my favorite tech channels on YT.

[@Tebbs64]

whats afterdark?

[@ninjaboi230]

@@Tebbs64 After Dark was a series of screensavers that were popular in the 1990's. Their most famous screensaver was the Flying Toasters. When computers were able to have their screens shut off when not in use, screensavers became obsolete.

[@Tebbs64]

@@ninjaboi230 thanks for explaining

[@ninjaboi230]

@@Tebbs64 My pleasure 🙂

[@icf1221]

wow After Dark, loved it back in the days especially those various theme packs. Flying toasters, the horror hangman that splits into two, etc.

[@McDuffington]

I LOVED this screensaver! Still have fond memories of Goofy moving windows around.

[@PatricksBlendedMixOfVideos]

I remember having this on my older Macintosh computers along with After Dark: Snoopy Fun Pac.

[@doinkies6492]

I remember these from when I was a kid, the family Macintosh computer had these screensavers installed on it. My favorites were the Sorcerer’s Apprentice, Scrooge and the castle fireworks one.

[@ReinKayomi]

That haunted screensaver is absolutely perfect OLED screens

[@saxman112]

Yee, such memories! I don’t think I ever had this screensaver set, but just hearing the MIDIs for some of them hit me right in the feels! (Especially the Under the Sea one)

[@arkaprabha.chakraborty]

your videos just make my day a little bit better. thank you for it.

[@PitchWheel]

I suddenly remembered to have seen at least 3 screensavers, not only Donald, but also the castle and haunted. I started using Windows with 3.1, so it fits in. It must have been rather popular by that time... Thanks for the sweet memory! Actually these screensaver were really the top by that time standards, the idea of seeing Donald painting the desktop looked like magic, it was not so nerdy as how would appear today. Also, thanks for remembering how easy that O/S used to crash 😀

[@PitchWheel]

@TELEGREM_TheMichealMJD sure, scammer, leave this channel alone

[@kalakkuna2]

9:54 Finally, I thought you had given up on this music! This belongs to your channel's videos so don't ever reject this! Great!

[@BBC600]

26:19 Curious if you or someone else would be willing to make a short video showing the Deutsche Mark setting.

[@rogero8443]

This REALLY made me want to do more than just run win98 on a VM. It's so cool to see a rando pen in the package. Literally a product of it's time. Rose-tinted glasses aside, there are some companies that still do this to keep the details alive but it's just not a thing in today's efficient market mentality. Anyway, I should go look for a 98 compatible PC now and upgrade an ssd into it.

[@tompov227]

The goofy clock was backwards which I think is a nice touch for a "goofy" clock

[@tompov227]

@TheTechNoPerson03 18:09

[@kaitlyn__L]

really messed with my head since i tell the time by the shape of the hands rather than decoding the numbers lol. first noticed the length of the hands were swapped then finally noticed the digits were too

[@AirknightTails]

Thanks for showing these off. I have a Copy of After Dark 3.2 that I found at a Thrift Store I think for like $5 IIRC (It was Crushed, But Sealed at the time)

[@dublinius]

After Dark made a "Windows Cleaner" saver that was similar to the Donald Duck artist one, in which a window cleaner descended from above, squeegying your screen on the inside.

[@deathbringer2000]

I love long videos on niche topics like this..

[@shibolinemress8913]

I love those old screen savers! I'm trying to give my pc a bit of a retro touch, so I'm trying to hunt up some of the ones I loved. You should do Johnny Castaway and that one with the talking dolphin-like alien that you could teach, if you get a chance. Or how about some of the old "make your own screensaver" software?

[@ALMASHNI-MAN]

Even though forespocken is a mess we can always depend on Michael MDJ to show us the good old days of vintage tech

[@HeadsetGuy]

Apparently this was installed at one of the schools my sister went to; she told me her memories of seeing a _Little Mermaid_ screensaver on one of the Macs there.

[@Elistarielle]

So much nostalgia here. Recently found my old booklet. No clue where my disks are, not that I can even use them anymore 😢

[@EclecticWizard6]

Sold a sealed copy of this on Ebay sometime in the last year but it was not the one you opened as mine did not have a sticker on the front. Thanks for opening and sharing. cool to see what was included in the box and all the vintage screensavers. You got a new sub.

[@MichaelMJD]

Thanks for subscribing!

[@philtkaswahl2124]

Kid me would have loved having this set on the family PC.

[@koledone]

Everyone : [talks about their opinion on screensaver, or the one in the video] Me : bro what is that box cover hell nahh

[@gakabler]

FYI - Regarding the Read Me date of October 11, 1993, that is actually significant to Disney as the birthday of twins Hallie and Annie in the remake of "The Parent Trap".

[@NoahClevinger]

The good 'ole days of screensavers. Good times.

[@agumelen]

I used to have the original Star Trek screen saver for Win3.1 and it also had sound.

[@daniel_lucio]

I remember that, TOS screensaver! Sickbay was my favorite;

[@NicolARark]

This is the most MJD thing ever xd

[@andresbravo2003]

Here’s to 100 years of Disney.

[@CartoonPhreak]

Happy 100 Years, Disney

[@xlivtheman]

11:00 wouldn't that be "fizzling out"?

[@soundphaseytp]

hey can you make more thrift store tech stuff?, it is really interesting, and i want to know more about what random things you find

[@stpworld]

I have this for macintosh and the simpsons and looney tunes versions to. I have the boxes still for some.

[@PashPaw]

I had the Windows version as a kid. Or I think I still do. I think I inherited all of my family's Windows 3.x-era floppies. I remember the catalog and the pen. Gorsh, this was a pretty set of screensavers.

[@Fortuna1]

After dark is really old Has good screensavers and other similar software like But the most awesome, is find a brand new sealed box PS: can runs in moderns systems?

[@StonePac]

WAIT I have more Disney software from a copy of Disney's go and dolimg cdn's :O I need to Wayback these, Thanks for the reminder Michael

[@jocefjose6004]

I have hazy memories of this, but the family pc kinda sucked back then that the it returns a display error which said it needed at least 256 color mode to run.

[@OfficialSDFG]

Would love to see if this installs on windows 95 and if it works with After Dark 4.0

[@Hadisabetghadam]

Hi Michael Do you remember installing Windows 11 on unofficial hardware (HP Compaq)? Make a video for installing Windows 11 for netbooks (Intel Atom laptops). Because it would be so cool (sort of).

[@EBTheOriginalMaster]

This was a fun little video.

[@Jake76667]

i still can’t believe that you had to pay real money for wallpapers on your pc in the 90s

[@theotherstuffguy2882]

26:18 What did the German DM look like?

[@K9arcade]

I hope I can track down the Simpsons and Crash/Spyro screensaver programs I used to use on Win98. If I ever do I'll link em to ya

[@yousefslimani99]

Nice video dude keep it up!!

[@MichaelMJD]

Thanks!

[@domxem5551]

Thanks for this, I miss screensavers

[@Pinwormx]

I’ve seen this demo’s at CompUSA, back the day. So maybe there?

[@edgardeitz5746]

If there could've been some more screensavers in this package, what Disney properties would you have wanted? Provide we limit ourselves to the shows and movies that existed back then (sadly, no "Zootopia" or "Inside Out", though they deserve *their own* sets), my list includes - Horace Horsecollar The Lion King Bambi Aladdin Epcot Center (Figment of the imagination) The Hunchback of Notre Dame the Nightmare Before Christmas Robin Hood the Reluctant Dragon The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh Dumbo (classic version) Pete's Dragon The Wuzzles Adventures of the Gummi Bears Chip 'n' Dales' Rescue Rangers Bonkers

[@NeonLight-gf3gl]

I don't know if others have the same dilemma, but it seems like I cannot install this on VM running Windows 3.1 without the serial number. I did check the link provided in the description, but there is no info about the serial number that is needed to proceed.

[@Xorrak]

I would've loved this as a child

[@Ahmad-pd7fq]

nice. it exists

[@z9cubing574]

Nice, man!!! !!! !!!

[@DeformedSAS]

did you change the vibrance on your camera? looks neat

[@aleksandarlenhart2078]

23:04 they're in space lol

[@GreenDavidA]

I wish the current owners of the After Dark IP (I think Activision Blizzard) would revive the series for modern Windows.

[@fart1234.]

so microsoft is gotta revive it?

[@Saver310]

Very nice

[@daniel_lucio]

Oh man I miss those days

[@ste666666666]

Nicey Nice, always loved screensavers when i was younger however dont use them anymore. Currently i'v been gifted a very old pc and a tiny emachines laptop as my main PC died on me 😞 can't really do anything with them old systems until i reinstall some windows on it or linux but may keep me distracted by fiddling with them until i save up money for a new PC, Good job i have a decent case, PSU and a graphics card so just need other parts to make a new PC, Can't wait to buy a new motherboard!!. Always exciting!. Anyways great video!! 🙂

[@lvl90dru1d]

will these screensavers work on windows 10?

[@chrishahn3834]

tbh, I'd buy that just for the flying toasters pen. lol

[@wandwoodgames5699]

I had this on my macintosh and it worked 20% of the time :(

[@jorymo4964]

This is actually a Kingdom Hearts game with important lore needed to understand the next game

[@RetroGamerOG_]

They should use that in Disney

[@tomr.knudsen3897]

Btw that goofy clock was mirroed

[@flizzycat]

I guess I need introduction for After Dark because the meaning I know for that phrase is most probably not what he's referring to...

[@razvanvi15]

how much was the screen saver?

[@readybear64]

The mouse strikes back.

[@Brad_Bane]

I had The Simpsons one and it was great. Still have the floppies, too. I bought 2 extra megs of RAM just to run it on my old no-name 386.

[@mobiletransportvideo]

There was also a The Simpsons After Dark Screensaver
