I was just wondering just before doing the same : did you fresh install M$Dos 6.2 before upgrading to Me?

really you went from 6.22, to DOS beta 1, to Windows 2 then to 3.11 then to 95 then to NT4. The back to 95, then up to 98 then to 2000 then to whistler then to ME then FINALLY back to DOS 5.

I don't have whistler, Windows 2.0, DOS Beta 1, or 3.11(just 3.1). But I want all of those
 
I think you're confusing me with JDULMAGE..and the above post makes me think even moreso of that
 
 
IT WAS A JOKE ANYWAY

I was wondering, is it possible to upgrade Win2k to WinNT4 then to Win95 (but with the 98se kernel) and then upgrade to Whistler 2257?

Let's go for a 20 page post.....
 
What about upgrading to Beos 3? or 4? or 5?
Or MSX-DOS?

How about, you go for the 20 pages yourself, ok? Because we have one started and it took months to make...

How in the hell did this get in here? I distinctly put it in the Win9x category.
 
 
I only have BeOS 5 PE....and it's the only free one.
 
I think the only way we can get 20 pages is if everyone rights a 5 paragraph essay on "Why Windows 9x $uck$ A$$".
Then post a long signature, just to fill up room
Any takers?

That doesn't make the least bit of sense there buddy. You said to go for 20 pages and I simply told you that we had one already. Therefore, your sentence is used way the hell out of context. But what do you expect.......

I just run Win2K AS off of a set of floppies (about 250 of 'em). Of course, I have spare floppy drives...

If I copy my C:\ (which is about 630mb) onto a CD, can I use Win2k on my playstation?
 
I am really sick of my mouse / keyboard combination and want to use my dinky game controller to surf for pr0n and w4rez. ;(
 
Also, my GeForce 2 has nothing on my PSX and TV.

Here endith the rambling, sarcastic post.

Isn't that a downgrade? (says w/ an artificial confused look on face)
 
not sure about the Playstation, but I have Windows running on my DreamCast, I to got bored w/ the mouse keyboard combo, and opted for the controller instead......LOL
 
On a side note my PC is running the latest Windows upgrade, 3.1, it is great.

If you really wanna put MacOS X on a PC.
 
Let me know if anyone gets this working. I know others have, but the hardware supported is very limited. I haven't tried yet, but I will as soon as I get the real deal, and not this beta. It should be pretty powerful, as it is based on BSD, which is very secure, and a nice, free alternative to Linux as a Unix OS.
