Installing windows 95 on a PC from 1997
After some time, the Windows 95 computer was in dire need of a rebuild. As a result I needed to install Windows 95 again. Some of the issues that I needed to fix were a short on the motherboard and a failing floppy drive as well as a few issues with the operating system resulting in it needing a reinstall.

Recently the ink roller in the ribbon cartridge disintegrated resulting in it gumming up the heads on the printer. This caused the pins to get stuck and the printer to print poorly.

Installing Microsoft Office 3.1

After I rebuilt the Windows 3.1 computer it needed to have Office installed. So I decided to install an older version of Microsoft Office. I put the install files directly on the hard drive and installed it from there. If you would like to see a more in depth install of how i put the files on the hard drive let me know in the comments.

This computer was given to me by my highschool computer teacher and it has a special place in my computer c...

I recently rebuilt the Windows 3.1 computer after finding a new period correct case for it. I removed the CD-ROM because it did not work. I also installed DOS-SHELL with Wordperfect and Lotus 123 onto this computer. Under the hood it is exactly the same as it was before.
Using a printer as a monitor on MS-DOS

MS-DOS has a feature that allows you to print what you type as you are typing it. Therefore how well would that work as a monitor?

    Games used to work better. Crysis, which was a benchmark for testing graphic cards used to run like butter on windows xp with decent graphics. Now motherfucking Fallout 4 which has graphics worth shit, runs like a potato on my new pc.

    All the transparency effects in Pale Moon make me realise how much better looking the Aero theme was in Windows 7. I kind of want to get an old Windows 7 machine to install old software like office 2010, Pivot, Scratch, RM software etc as a sort of time capsule of computing as a child. I remember every day going on the Windows 7 Dell computer and playing Club Penguin with my friends or doing word art on the school computer in Word 2010. I’d really like to have a time-accurate desk setup like you do for each OS. The old rubber-dome keyboard, square LCD monitor etc I remember the school computer class being filled up with. Alongside the “da ding, da ding!” sound effect playing on every computer as they started up. I can remember the educational software we used, like Education City, Purple Mash, Espresso, Skooville, Pivot and RM Education software. Plus, a Windows “genie” application that I remember literally everyone immediately starting up, it would cause the old Genie helper from Office XP to appear, and read things off the screen that the mouse hovered over.

    I miss that startup screen so much (that one when you press the Windows button). I had my first Windows 8.1 when I was in primary school (7th grade) back in 2015. After several years, this system came to an end and I had to upgrade it to Windows 10, another system that's going to discontinue on late 2025.

    man time went by so fast, i was 10 years old back then. hearing thos sounds again just bring back so maney of the old days. we only had dail up. we only had one computer in the whole house and it was in a room and we called it computer room. all my familys use to take turns useing the computer. now today none of use computers no more. phones took over everyone. last time buyed a new computer was 2010 and when it broke down in 2012 we give up on geting it fixed and just moved on since a lot of us were already useing our phones.
