The Birth of the SSD Win XP Machine?

I install Windows XP on an SSD then play Lego Island 2 on it.

Does it piss anyone else off when you're missing your Ethernet driver and Windows is like "hey you wanna look online for Ethernet drivers" and ur there like "Windows got extra chromosone a or something?"

[@misaalanshori]

LOL xD

[@BenEsherick]

Ben Esh chromosome*

[@Nunya58294]

Lmfao I know this comment is old, but that was funny as fuck

[@NepgearGM6.1]

Me i hate that

[@crylune]

How do you not have Ethernet drivers in this day and age? If Windows doesn't come equipped with them for you, upgrade your archaic PC.

[@pikachuchujelly7628]

Install Rollercoaster Tycoon 3! Talk about loading times!

Hey, at least the game was decent.

[@mica7191]

What brand is that blue PC case?

[@SheldeniHardware]

Your to good, Windows 7 on a Pentium 3 is your next mission sir :P

[@mr.mandudeguy5389]

Windows 10 my friend

[@217awsome]

+Shelden iHardware Isn't the minimum a Pentium 4?

[@SheldeniHardware]

217awsome for 64bit yes, 32 nope as long as you have 1gb of RAM :D

[@217awsome]

Heh, nice to know, though, I only have a Pentium 4 with 512MB RAM, 2x256MB I tested Windows 7 on it and it's super slow ;~; Hell, even XP is slow as hell on it...The PC being a Dell Dimension 4300...

[@SheldeniHardware]

217awsome Yea Windows 7 does not run that well on anything less than a 775 Pentium 4 or even Celeron in that matter IMO but it is quite amazing to see an OS like that run on hardware of that age :P I have a 4600 and when I got it it had 4x1gb DDR modulus in it and a 500GB IDE WD Blue, you can bet I was in shock when I pulled that hard drive out haha

[@TremiRodomi]

There's a patch for Lego Island 2 that fixes the long loading times. Part of the reason why it takes so long was because of shitty programming, as it prioritizes the rendering of the loading screen over actually loading data!

[@solarstrike33]

Link in case anyone's curious: github.com/JeffRuLz/LEGO-Island-2-Patcher

[@mica7191]

I play GTA SA on my pc... it literally takes few seconds to load Binco interior... I have a 500gb 7200 rpm hdd, WD AAKS5000-003UAA0

[@xan1242]

+Mr. ManDudeGuy that would be very anti climactic windows 7 would be better since poopsauces at microsoft made the nt kernel require sse2 extensions after windows 8 consumer preview so

[@Dan-TechAndMusic]

+xan1242 Not if you use a tool that actually strips the ISO of the SSE2/PAE/NX checks. It can be done and it has been done.

[@xan1242]

Daniël's Tech & Music Channel wait i'm hearing this for the first time in my life But seriously, that would be rad, to run Windows 10 on my Evo N600C that I have absolutely no use for.

[@pikachuchujelly7628]

+Mr. ManDudeGuy I want to see a machine dual boot Windows 95 and Windows 10 with full driver support on both.

[@gaveroid418]

+PikaChuChuJelly With 128MB of RAM (seems to be the amount of tam the Evo N600C usually has), good luck running Windows 10.

[@DhavidSetiawanKilluaDhavid]

Hey +Druaga1 why dont you make ISO CD from LEGO game? and run virtual CD Drive using Daemon Tools

[@eLJaybud]

That was my thinking, if you really want to test the ssd you should eliminate the CD-ROM from the equation.

[@solarstrike33]

He uses PowerISO. Better than Daemon Tools in my opinion.

[@DragonKnightGX]

[@slashed_out]

The loading process in Lego Island 2 makes sure that the pizza->CD animation is smooth. If you use a hex editor and remove the offending instruction in the game program you can speed up loading screen massively (www.rockraidersunited.com/topic/7172-no-intro-no-cd-debug-info-level-select-windowed-mode-long-load-times-fix/ , from where I got the fix, claims that this method speeds up the loading by 10-20 times!). You can also simply patch the game to use the windowed mode - the loading fuck-up applies only to fullscreen for some reason.

[@lefteris.adamou.1]

i installed sound drivers by choosing optional updates

[@ZeroHourProductions407]

Having done some recent exploration on the subject, I have found that doing a Windows XP install from a USB drive with Easy2Boot goes a fair chunk faster. The Easy2Boot prep thing for the USB drive even seems to have a way to handle how the XP installation assumes/expects the medium to be an optical drive. With that method, it basically helps to have a system with a lot of RAM though, since it creates a RAMdisk to act as a virtual optical drive. Makes the installs super fast though :D

[@BMB]

12:56 made the video 3 times better. I knew some way you'd get the Windows welcome music in there XD

[@Browningate]

Make sure to turn off IDE emulation mode for best performance.

[@adlymagdy1]

I've installed windows XP so many times and it just makes me sad that I just found out it has music playing during the setup process.

[@nate5862]

the original lego island i played a lot on a vista machine. it took 10 minutes of watching a pizza cd spin inbetween levels ugh

[@urmahgurica5851]

OMG!!! I miss that game that you played on the windows Xp, I remember i got it and went home and put it in the computer, and it was laggy as fuck, I couldn't really play it cause the computers back then, they where not powerful enough to handle this, and I remember that I left it loading while I went out to get pizza and came back and it was still loading. Thank You For Showing Me This Game Again, I Played It when I Was 6! OMG MEMORIES!

[@FaSMaN]

You will get slightly better performance if you install the nforce sata drivers and make a image of the game to the SSD and use Daemon tools to play it.

[@MarcWeavers]

just finished my win xp games machine for old games that wont install on modern OS, dual 30GB SSD raid 0 :D, limited by the PCI bus, but getting 190MB/s read and write from the raid array, using 2x 30GB Kingston S200 which are capable of going faster, but... meh, it works great

[@BlazeFireXERO]

Damn, you are so underrated. Your videos are amazing, and show that videos DONT need complex effects or transitions. It's straight to the point and I love your style. Keep up the good work! :)

[@johnlinke1790]

4:53 And that moment, Druga1 realized, he done fucked up.

[@hamlinhamlinmcgill630]

Your voice is really funny, you should be a storyteller!

[@solarstrike33]

Shame most people in the first 98 SSD video wrote him off in that aspect.

[@cleanycloth]

12:30 ish: Well, you COULD make an image of LI:2 and start the game from that. That way, the entire game is being read from the SSD at all times.

[@NyxTheShield]

I am running Windows 7 on exactly the same computer right now :c

[@NelsonBigGunP200Fan]

TRIM won't properly work on XP. There are programs that can TRIM it however, you need AHCI in your bios.

[@kaaaallll]

Man, i have an amd hd5450. Its great if all you want to do is just turn on your pc.

[@FamilyDUDE777]

In truth, I've always enjoyed Lego Island 1 more than Lego Island 2. But Lego Island 1 and Lego Island too stopped working on my windows vista computers when I was 10 at some point. Every couple of years Lego Island comes to mind and now because of you Drauga, I'm playing Lego Island 1 today.

[@solarstrike33]

Fun fact: Lego Island 1's the first retro PC game I bought

[@madden8021]

I'm watching this Damn Pizza Disk load the game - Brutalmoose

[@evilstrawberrysaltaccount9923]

Im watching this on Windows XP :)

[@rogeliolopez2190]

and the the intro video is intro instead of title

[@Snowwie88]

If you install Windows XP on an SSD drive remember Windows XP does not support TRIM nor Wear Leveling. It's therefore recommended that during installation you leave 10% unallocated.

[@ibanezgera]

This was great. you should do a game series where you install and mess around with games of the OS's era

[@synthsynner]

Install Windows XP Gold (unofficial and with pirated software, perfect for you) on an SD card with too much RAM

[@TheSonicSegaNerd]

Ugh I hated Windows XP Gold. I thought it was a little bit TOO modified. In my opinion, Black Edition is much better and I'm using it right now.

[@Caxaho]

Imigrated graphics XD. Yas, perfect...

[@h4swell]

+Microawesome Lol :DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

[@WellBeSerious12]

CONTROL AND SCROLL DOWN!!! While your videos are entertaining, it's flabbergasting how ridiculous your methods are of getting the drivers late when you need them instead of on time, and the correct ones.

[@Snowwie88]

You could have made a virtual drive and made an ISO of that cd-rom and put THAT on the ssd. You could try this again and see if it loads any faster then.. :-)

[@claraballs]

There is something you forgot at 4:29. You see there is two sound drivers. Actually, one of them belongs to the HDMI port of the AMD card. So you could hear sound if it was connected to a TV through the HDMI port. Without installing the sound card.

[@bulletblox299]

GTA5 is pretty bad. doesn't matter how fast your PC is, it takes 5 minutes to get into the game. you could have a super computer and it would still take that long. also it's now possible to run GTA5 too good, because after a certain FPS, it hitches a lot.

[@curvingfyre6810]

I'm trying to do exactly this on a slightly newer system (early windows 7, so that it's overkill) and XP simply refuses to recognise my drive. idk what I'm doing wrong.

[@martiekr]

What runs best on Windows XP (even the only OS it wil run on) is Visual Studio 6 (yes, we exist). If you are maintaining a Visual Studio 6 application (like i do), that cannot be converted to Visual Studio DotNet Crap, running a Windows XP machine inside VirtualBox on Windows 10 is your only option. The latest Visual Studio 6 Support-Pack comes with native Windows 10 drivers (Replacement for the DCOM drivers Windows 10 will not install and not work). Using the native Windows 10 drivers your Visual Studio 6 Application will install en and run on Windws 10 machins natively without installing additional drivers and hassle. So like PostGreSQL, MySQL database connectivety etc. is works out if the box.

[@GatorMilk]

My goal is to build a slightly-better Win98/Win98SE machine and slightly-better WinXP machine using then-powerful cards and then high-end CPUs for old-school gaming.

[@odstar21]

I wish you can install and running my 2007 Inspiron E1505 bios A17 Winxp pro on my new KingDian 120gb S280 Hybrid TLC SSD (2256EN) latest Controllers. It need the old 80gb hdd to be cloned to SSD. I will have to try to use RUN command to change the value 1 to 0 then restart my computer ,press F2 and hold it until Bios setting to change IDE to AHCI. Restart computer 2 times. Take out HDD that is all set for cloning to SSD. I will try to clone both offline from my laptop. I'm gonna use the SalCar (Germany) Cloning Station. I'm so nervous doing this myself because i never try doing this before. I hope i done my home work by writing down the whole process on paper. Did i left out anything that is important? Wish me good luck everyone :[

[@kudalaMangalooru]

You are funny!!!! Your sense of humor & timing are awesome!!! The cartoon voice with a dramatic touch kept me rolling! HAHAHAHAHA! Thank you. :) You made my day a little bit better! Have you thought about getting in to comedy? improve? commercials? I think you would be great :)

[@thefattmish]

Funny that a LEGO game on PC takes forever to load considering that the LEGO City game on Wii U also takes FOREVER to load as well. Regardless, nice video. Thanks.

[@99domini99]

currently the games with aggravating loadig times I know about (especially without SSD) are Battlefield 3+4, GTA V, DCS: World.

[@PicturesqueGames]

You already missed cd-rom gag 2 times. Open it up, and there's disk with PORN. "oops, should've checked old drive for any nsfw stuf, heh heh heh"

[@laharl2k]

That lego game is crappy as crap. You could probably compress the whole CD in less than it takes to load a level, that by its complexity it shouldnt take more thana few seconds if it where properly coded. I wonder if it's loading things recursively by some stupid mistake

[@owl5911]

my computer almost 2 years old and has a HARD DISK DRIVE boots windows faster than 20 seconds. i have not timed it but i think its less than 10 secs.

So for some reason, Lego Island 2 loads bytes one by one each second... If you could patch this using a tool from some forum which I Forgot where it was but the tool exists, But you forgot about this machine.

[@felipe34k]

i have this very own grafics card running here, with a fan screwed to heatsink, plugged to mainboard chassis header, runs at 45Cº tops at load!

[@off_on_one]

I have that SSD in my laptop, running Windows 10, 64 bit... well the same manufacturer

[@dotfive9921]

You do not have a chance at all to cut the loading times in half, Lego Island 2 reads its files 1 byte by byte, Its a really stupid developer choice. So Bad coding is correct.

[@nameistunbekannt7896]

I guess your SATA Mode was set to some legacy setting? Next time use drivers for your actual SATA controller to get the full speed.
