Re: Upgrading through every version of Windows

fantastic, never would have thought some programs from windows 1 would still be working after major updates, 20 years later in win 7, nice video name smile
My first computer was an IBM xt @ 4MHz, 256 KB Ram, and a green Hercules 12 or 13" monitor. can you believe it ran the best ever TETRIS, (moscow ) version, and hercules graphics even made it possible to run prince of persia 1,,,oh backed up with DOS 3.2 , on a Seagate 10 kilogram (10 MB) HDD , on which I had installed Stacker to double its size,,,, ehhhh, those memories smile

How dare they not take over the red color scheme through to the latest version of Windows! :-D

I wonder how stable the last upgraded version is now.

Yeah, But he also had a lot of errors, they have 3 service packs released to solve the problems.

In win 7 they solved the blue screen error
