Return To Windows 95, Xp Sucks.


Recommended Posts

Good for you. I used to tri-boot. now I quad boot. XPpro,Me,JMe,Longhorn  I like it.

why don't you add xp home, win2k, win98, win95 to your bootlist and make a... mm.. 'octa-boot'? :blink:

Thanks aaron, you are a PAL. I didn't think of that....Now where can I get 95, 98, linux, 2K,XP home and whatever the hell else I like.

What are the real advatages of using XP over 95?

Hmmm usb support, firewire support, actually being able to use an agp vid card, being able to use more than 512 Megs of ram, being able to use hard drives that arent chooped up into 2 gig partitions...need i go on?

win 95 had fat32 ie ( more than 2 gig partitions) , usb support and could support more than 512 mb of ram.

and probly agp support if the 98 drivers will install on 95

please learn what you talk about before you spout off !

If you like those OSes that much buy a copy and format your drive so you can install 'em. Otherwise make a decent thread pleaze.

sounds familiar huh? :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

You got me on that one. :) I really don't mean any insult.

You know I really don't care for 95. I think I had a copy somewhere, probably through it out though. I do have 98se, the last time I installed it, it didn't have driver support for my devices. It was more buggy than Longhorn. I will not use Linux, no reason to. I am not going to install 2K, I have XP. Unless someone knows of an advatage to 2K over XP.

My computer came with Me installed. So the driver Support has been very good. XP pro runs fantastic. Both actually do very well on my computer. I just like to mess with Longhorn. Currently trying to get the Media Center to work.

Thanks werejag.

The original out of the box 95 support none of those. So i think you should follow your own damn advice

As you correctly point out, THE ORIGINAL OUT OF THE BOX. But guess what, different versions were made and sold and warezed (hem) that meet the description. Much like how there are different versions of 98 and Me. You should be the one to follow your own advice.

The original versions of Windows 95, build 950, and build 950A (Windows 95 with Service Pack 1), and 950B, do not support full AGP functionality. AGP display adapters will still function in these versions but only in the same manner as a PCI based display adapter.

AGP Support was first added by Microsoft to the 950B (a.k.a. OSR2 version 1111) release by way of a USB SUPPLEMENT. Build 950B can be updated to support AGP display adapters by applying the USB SUPPLEMENT to OSR2. The USB SUPPLEMENT (USBSUPP.EXE) was initially made available by MICROSOFT through their OEM's.

Windows 95 version 950 and 950A can not be updated to support AGP products. Windows 95 950B is required as minimum starting point.

....Yes 95 is grand :rolleyes:

95c did support most if not all of the requirments.

so as i said before! learn about what you are talking about and speak from knowledge not ignorance.

I can't believe people right now are arguing the virtues of win 95. What's next, Windows 3.1? Or maybe.. Microsoft Bob, lmao.

M$ Bob Was cool, Searchdogs granddaddy was in it.

I managed to get a copy 3 years ago for $1 at a used bookshop

So kick back, relax, and hold on to your wallets. The Epic Games Store's mystery giveaways may have ended, but its regular freebies didn't miss a step this week.

    • When will the Photos app be updated to remember the window size and position when reopened? They addressed this issue in a 2024 version of the app (though I can't recall the build number). Unfortunately, after that specific version, the problem persists! Please prioritise this fix in your K2 schedule. Additionally, the Snipping Tool has lost the ability to capture the Windows Taskbar starting from the 2024 version!

    • Anthropic pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export control order by Pradeep Viswanathan In April this year, Anthropic launched the Claude Mythos Preview frontier model with state-of-the-art cyber and coding capabilities for a select set of companies around the world. After preparing appropriate guardrails, early this week, Anthropic launched Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5, its most capable AI models. Claude Fable 5 is for general users and comes with strict safeguards, while Mythos 5 is designed with fewer safeguards for cybersecurity and biology use cases. Today, Anthropic abruptly suspended access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models for all customers after receiving an export control directive from the US government. The company received the directive from the government today at 5:21 p.m. ET, and the received letter did not provide any details regarding the national security concern. Anthropic understands that the government became aware of a method to bypass, or “jailbreak,” Fable 5, which might be the reason behind the directive. The order was issued under national security authorities and requires the company to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether they are inside or outside the United States. The restriction also applies to foreign national employees working at Anthropic. As a result, the company has disabled both models for all customers to ensure compliance. Access to previous Anthropic models like Opus and Sonnet is not affected by this government order. The company highlighted that it had developed strong safeguards to reduce the possibility that Fable is misused for tasks related to cybersecurity. In fact, many developers are complaining that the safeguards are going overboard. Additionally, the company worked with the US government, the UK AISI, multiple private third-party organizations, and internal teams to red-team Fable’s safeguards for thousands of hours. Finally, Anthropic noted that no testers have yet been able to find a universal jailbreak on Fable 5. As expected, Anthropic disagrees that a narrow potential jailbreak should lead to the recall of a commercial model used by hundreds of millions of people. It warned that applying this standard across the AI industry could effectively halt new frontier model deployments. Anthropic concluded by mentioning that it is working to restore access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 as soon as possible and plans to share more details within the next 24 hours.
