Dad Tries Out Windows 98 SE (1999) With Mum Watching

  • Diana started off barely knowing how to use a computer but now after trying over 70 different operating systems she has become quite competent within a huge variety of desktop environments.
    Ben on the other hand is even worse than Diana was when she first started. Each task is a struggle for him as he attempts to acomplish the basics of Windows 98 SE. Sit back and prepare to smile as Diana the OS Pro teaches Ben a thing or two about operating systems.
    More info on Windows 98 SE (Second Edition) here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_...
    Don't forget to visit the OSTalk forums (a forum for talking about operating systems) here: osfirsttimer.freeforums.org/
    Tasks Given:
    - What time is it?
    - Set the Correct Time
    - Write, Save and open a text document
    - Calculate 49.7 / 8
    - Change the desktop background
    - Paint a picture in paint
    - Turn off the computer
    The mother in this video uses Windows 8.0 (2012) as her main os however she has installed the classic shell due to her Metro Hate. Would you like to see her try out Linux, Mac, Windows or other operating systems through history such as FenOS (2014)? Then give your suggestions in the comments section. Give this video lots of likes, views, favorites and comments if you want my mum to try out other operating systems. I am open to any operating system suggestions you give especially if these videos go semi-viral (over 100,000 views). This channel is dedicated to me "introducing" people (mum, dad, me) to different operating systems they have never used before and leaving them to suffer in confusion struggling to do anything in an unknown computer environment... or see if these other operating systems are better than Microsoft Windows.
    The father in this video uses Mac OS X 10.9 Mavericks on an early 2009 macbook white 13 inch. He only uses his computer to read emails and watch youtube videos. He doesn't know the first thing about operating systems.

    An excellent point is made in this video. By having new users try to find the way to do basic tasks, you find out where they naturally look to do the required task. The makers of computing devices and operating systems could learn a lot by watching these videos. And I get a kick out of your parents.

I took the laptop apart, took the hard drive out and the ram. at least I can re-enjoy Windows 98 with this video! For your first video Ben, good job!

Don't worry though, these dad tries out episodes will come out along side mum tries out videos unless we get lots of requests for these videos rather than the usual mum tries out videos.

      @ComputerGenius10 10 років тому +1

      Quarker
      You can't do it with modern computers 2001-2014 because there are not any drivers for windows 98

    • @pikachuchujelly7628
      @pikachuchujelly7628 10 років тому

      Quarker You've got to install Windows 95 first. Don't make its C: partition too large so you can load some other OSes. Then install Windows NT, Linux, or whatever you want. GRUB should be able to work fine with it, at least it did in my setup of Windows 98, Windows XP, and Ubuntu.
      If your computer is newer than about 2003, you'll likely not have drivers for stuff. I've found just running it in Microsoft Virtual PC 2007 using the guest additions from Virtual PC 2004 to be the best solution on modern computers.
