also back on 95: these disk space requirements are a killer :D (jk)
I felt like a god when installed XP for the first time.
Chungy
I think it's probably not too bad if I post a 95 serial. :P
Harrison
I tested with Visual Studio 6.0 which has the same serial number format
Chungy
Harrison
And 333-7777777 was found to be working
Pierre
Old AF.
Harrison
OEM version, sweet
Chungy
yeah that format of serial ways basically: first three digits don't matter, the other seven had to sum to a multiple of 7
Chungy
but yeah... this longer OEM key. I'm installing with a legit key I actually have. not something found on the internets :D
Pierre
Do you think Windows 7 was the best OS of all time?
Harrison
Harrison
There's actually a friend who is still running XP as *daily driver*
Chungy
Do you think Windows 7 was the best OS of all time?
it's not even the best version of Windows, so no :P
Pierre
XP brings peace and simplicity, 7 brings beauty and power.

The most sadness come when the hl2.exe don't open.
Chungy
also with discussion of compiling your own stuff for ROS.... here's ReactOS that I compiled myself running Chocolate Doom that I also complied myself. :P and both of those were faster than installing W95 :D
Harrison
ROS doesn't really seem to handle MSVCRT DLLs very well.
Pierre
Chungy
these screens were rad
Harrison
Install Wine Mono.
will that help solve mysterious "function xyz not found in api-ms-ctr blah" even if I installed VCRT redist?
Pierre
If Mono doesn't work, try installing the default Visual Studio Runtime.

Chungy
lmao the disk space graph
Chungy
Chungy
at least in my VM trials, it's extremely slow to configure and build on it... if I gave it a few hours it probably would get done :D
Harrison
?
You can compile Ros with RosBE on Ros
Chungy
on my host I can do it in about 5 minutes
Pierre
I tought you ran RosBE on Windows/Linux.
Harrison
Given that Ros can't really make use of multi cores it will be a nightmare
Harrison
May also experience strange FS issues and corrupt the disk...
Harrison
No SMP?
I guess, no. I installed ROS on a core 2 duo once, and task manager never got to show two CPU graphs.
Harrison
Let me check out the wiki
Pierre
Let me check out the wiki
It's f*cking outdated, see the Last Edit date.
Harrison
Nobody update it even if stuff are implemented...
Harrison
But I guess such a big feature of multi processor support wouldn't be missed from the wiki?
Chungy
I guess if you decide you like white titlebars, Office says no :D Also, graphical bug behind the minimize/maximize/close buttons
Chungy
It appears it becomes a solid color behind them no matter what, but on the standard dark blue title bars, it's not very visible.
Chungy
let's see if I can run Office 97 simultaneously... i have no idea
Chungy
Yeah you can really see some stark differences in UI... because Office doesn't use the standard windows controls :P
Chungy
Chungy
Chungy
also the menu bar is detachable because why not :D
Chungy
I remember people getting so confused when they accidentally moved it.
Chungy
Tobiyo
ah so windows xp descended from os/2
Tobiyo
😂

Mingw is still a toy compared to visual studio
Mark
not a fair comparison ofc
Can
SimCity 3000 works on ReactOS 0.4.14 RC-64 (Lates nightly builds have a regression)
Can
Taskbar is visible on 800x600 res, not in 1024x768.
Can
Mouse pointer is also flickering.
Can
I will deeply test it later.
Mark
If it works on a release but not master it doesn't have to be a regression
Mark
Releases have hacks in them
