We used Windows Me for about 4 years before getting a upgrade copy of XP. It wasnt super stable but it depended on what you were trying to do since I think the instability was due to changes to the driver model in preparation for switching consumers to the NT kernal. We had a cheap flatbed scanner and I dont know what the driver or software was doing under the hood, but whenever we installed the drivers to use it that install of Me would be dead within days. We had to get rid of the scanner since it was toxic to Windows Me.
When I worked in the stock room at Computer City here in Buffalo, I got a promotional copy of Windows 98. It's not even in a box, it's just a cardboard sleeve that contains the CD-ROM. I miss that place, it was one of the few jobs I loved because we were the first to see the newest hardware and software before we put it out on the sales floor. Good times.
I love garage/yard sales! What a score! I got all my first PCs and parts from garage sales when I started tinkering and building my first PCs in the early 2000s. I started to build my own pc since my dad would complain all the time we were slowing down the only pc in the house that was shared with 5 others. They may have been old parts not very capable of gaming much, but I was happy to have my own pc that i put together that ran.
Born and raised in Brazil I've never seen an original copy of Windows neither office. They do exist but usually there is two situations: It came with the computer without a box or you bought a pirate one.
I LOVED the Windows Movie Maker! Used it all the time for videos and slideshows with audio, which I would burn to CD for friends and family. I was so sad when it was discontinued. Of course better software came along, but I'll always remember Movie Maker very fondly.
@@orbitron The only reason I can think of is they wanted a "cool" sound effect to play for upgrading your computer to Windows ME, and I guess didn't have the time to get something unique. Given that ME was aimed at consumers, most weren't likely to have any experience with NT, so it'd just come across as "oh hey, cool sound."
16:18 yes, NT 5.0 Beta DID use NT 4.0 sounds up to Build 1631, when after that it used the actual NT 5.0 startup, but kept the NT 4.0 shutdown. Now I got to note that after Beta 1, NT 5.0 used its own startup. He said "NT 5.0 Beta", but the NT 4.0 startup was never used in the Beta stages, just the shutdown sound was only used.
I remember that my very first gaming PC that I built myself in early 2001 which had a 1 GHz Pentium III cpu with 256 mb of ram. I remember that I originally had Windows ME on it and then I later upgraded it to Windows XP in 2002.
To be honest in the past, when I was a kid, I remember windows ME has so many bugs and crashed so many times, we used the windows 2000 which was based on the NT system. We're more stable at this time. They just released the ME together with the 2000. One for the office and businesses and the Me was for "home" users.
I have the promotional step up (blue box) myself, since the 1st day it came out. I've upgraded my Windows 98 HP Omnibook with this. Strangely enough it seems I am one of the few people that actually liked Me, besides their bugs and quirks (and they had quite a few).
19:30 its like a custom welcome skin going with windows media player, and we can see it only waching this wellcome video after the system installation. i remember something around it from my computer experiense when i was about 10 y o and doing experiments with those win9x OSes on my first PIII machine. i think then i had found this skin in one of media player folders. sry4myeng, its not my native, so and thank you Michael! so nostalgic content!. как у нас говорят, ламповый видос)
Shockingly, I had minimal issues with windows ME back when it was still relevant. I had bought my first brand new desktop with it preinstalled, and for word processing and email it wasn't too bad. I did end up purchasing Windows XP home about two years later, but in the time I used it, it was pretty damn good!
“Windows Me First” sounds like if they continued making Windows Me and named it like “Xbox One”. The second edition of Windows Me could’ve been “Windows Me Two”.
Maaaan Movie Maker took me back. I first used it on Windows 98 and then XP in primary school. And in present day I edit videos for a living :') (also, jelly of your boxed OS collection)
I actually had a Windows ME machine that I never connected to the internet, complete with Office 2000 already installed. I actually used that machine to type most of my reports and essays in high school between 2007 and 2010.
I remember back in the day my buddy had a brand new Micron Windows ME pc that he'd just gotten. I was jealous and wanted to upgrade my 98 to ME. Somehow we managed to get the OEM restore CD from the Micron to load up and install on my machine. I dumped it a day later but I remember being so excited to load it and then promptly found out it was trash. Frontpage on the other hand I loved. It was great for editing style sheets and the split-view (code-wysiswyg) was my favorite.
I randomly got a free 'promotional copy' of Windows Millennium upgrade edition sent to me. I have no idea who sent it, or why because it just turned up on my door one day. No note or anything suggesting who it was from, but it was addressed to me. I think I had upgraded to AMD's new 1Ghz Athlon CPU around the same time, it was a big issue as they broke the 1Ghz barrier - so I've always assumed it was something to do with AMD. I don't quite remember the specifics. While I don't remember the actual upgrade to Windows Millennium, I remember most of the additional features not working here in the UK. I think one of them was Internet over TV (or something like that) and it just didn't even work with my ATI All-In-Wonder TV card (but that could have just been ATI's poor driver support). I think I quit using it pretty quickly as I went back to Windows 98SE until XP. From what I remember, I'm pretty sure it messed up my config/autoexec custom boot settings for games and I couldn't boot back into DOS. I still have the Windows Millennium upgrade disc itself.
I had Windows ME on my first PC. I remember people complaining about compatibility issues, but I never had any problems. But I upgraded to XP when that came out.
Of course, that's because you bought the upgraded version of Windows ME. If you buy the retail version or the OEM version and install it from scratch, there is no problem such as the sound of Windows 98 or the intro video not turning off.
Windows ME was designed to be the home version of Windows 2000. But it was buggy and crashed allot because it was rushed out. It is the last version of Windows 9X
I usually come to this channel to kick back and both chill and geek out over tech, but that moment at 20:37 had me laughing out loud. Your jokes are the best! :-)
Promo copies are usually given to employees, important customers or handed out at trade shows I think. My promo copies are from trade shows and conferences at least.
I love the "windows me being windows me" part also I loved the "There was a song that played that would get this video Content ID'd so I had to mute it" part
So, the "Promotional step up" was sold in a store, but the "Standard" one was promotional and not for sale in stores. 🤔 I'm joking, lol. I just find it funny.
Iirc, though it only mentions windows 9xs as possible previous version to upgrade from, I believe at least on a clean install, windows me upgrade accepts a windows 3.x disk 1 install floppy as proof of ownership when prompting for the install media from a previous version of windows. I want to say Windows XP will as well, though I could be mistaken on that one. Not sure about if either accepts 3.x as valid when choosing to upgrade from a previous installation method.
Frontpage 2000 got me to watch this vid lol. I LOVED THAT TOOL AS A KID! Thanks to stupid stuff I never achieved my dream of being a software developer/ game development, but I'm only 35 and I'm getting back into it. Hope its not too late!
Windows ME was a version of Windows that had lots of new features, but thanks to being MS-DOD based, it became a quite unstable OS. Well... Thanks to Windows ME, Microsoft learned a good lesson and made Windows XP, as everyone wanted this OS to be.
I went from 98 to ME, used it for 2 days and said no. Went back to 98 for 2 weeks. Then someone suggested I try 2000, went to 2000 and was very very happy.
21:14 My friend and I used to rock to that one Beck song that came with Windows Media Player. We'd sing it poorly to the chagrin of our parents in the car. I'm surprised I haven't been disowned.
Besides its short lifecycle, Windows Me can install 3 to 4 more years of DirectX 9.0c runtime updates than Windows 98SE. So if you want better Win32 DirectX game support, Windows Me seems a good choice.
Windows ME.... The operating system with an identity crisis. Not Windows 2000 but not Windows 98 SE. I was a huge nerd at the time so I did take the jump to Windows ME but I did eventually switch back to Windows 2000. Had neither the compatibility of Windows 98SE nor the stability of Windows 2000.
The first computer I actually owned -- as opposed to being a hand-me-down from my dad -- had Windows Me on it. I must admit the only real thing I did on it was change the Windows Media Player skins and play around with the fonts. Oh yeah, and play Baldurs Gate 2 and Icewind Dale on it and write silly fantasy stories. I got it when working in Ireland and it was a fixture in my first independent flat after I moved out of my mum's. I made up mix tape inlays on it. Happy days.
I can't believe you managed to use Windows Me without a bluescreen within 30mins. At launch when I upgraded, it would be a dice roll if Winamp mp3 playback and being connected to the internet via dial-up was too much for the OS. I rolled-back to Win98SE and then up to an XP Beta fairly quickly.
I remember the update path for the family PC was 3.1 > 98 > XP. Then by the time I had a personal setup it was XP > 7 > 10. Though currently 10 is a dual boot with Manjaro, with the Windows boot mostly for gaming.
If you primarily use Steam for gaming, try using Proton on Linux. As long as your PC is good enough to handle a little bit of overhead, it works great.
@@philtkaswahl2124 Ah. Well for me, I've been stuck on potato PCs and consoles for years, so I'm playing a lot of older games I missed out on right now. Which makes Proton perfect for me.
7:44 If you look at the art with more distance you can see a completed puzzle containing of 4 pieces at the 2000 version the version on which I build my first completely own build websites :D
Had Windows ME on my first Compaq computer in 2000. Its startup song wss the best, so good I put it on one of my CD mixes lol. So manh memories, though I try to forget all the issues it had lol
Did I hear right? Windows System Restore was a huge introduction to Windows Me? I suppose that is accurate. I certainly used System Restore a *lot* when using Windows Me.
I also got a boxed copy of Office 2000 Pro, but the book in Pro ver. is thinner Also a sealed copy of Windows 2000 box. The last one that doesn't require an online activation.
When Michael went all "What were they thinking?" I immediately thought of the Angry Video Game Nerd, he says that a lot. Also, I feel oddly nostalgic towards Clippy, my junior high years were spent with Office 2003 and Windows XP.
I love the Microsoft CDs from that era. The crazy holographic designs covering the whole disc were really beautiful.
Microsoft should go back to the old route it's less expensive than all this modern non sense and I feel like it's pretty stupid making everything digital I miss actually using a game disk on a computer growing up. They're easily replaceable and not bound to ridiculous policies and allow you to keep your computer for a lifetime. If Microsoft not saying they will ever go back to Windows XP if they run out of ideas then I'm all in for the support I hate how scattered newer Windows start menus are it's annoying.
Oh yeah, i especially like the XP one

16:08 Windows 98 also had the NT startup sound when upgrading Windows 3x or 95 to 98.
Yep
i didn't know about that only thing what i remember it has a windows 98 startup sound only
@@ahmadzahid266 Well, it depends on the version, I think this one only happens in the second edition.

I liked vista still do
Some people said ME was o.k. if you did all the updates but that was a problem for people with slow dial-up connections.
I'm with ya. I liked ME when it came out. I actually have 3 desktops in my collection with it.
I love the days of big box software retail. Flash in the pan but so cool. Stores dedicated to software, ala book or video game stores.

Because the video was only 320x240 so they framed an image of video player then bigger wallpaper of 4 colors over video mpeg1 hence no interface
Always love WindowsMe. I've used it since day one and still use it for my retro gaming machine.
Why is MJD actually good at singing?
"There was A SONG THAT PLAYED THAT WOULD GET THIS VIDEO CONTENT ID'ED SO I HAD TO MUTE IT!"

Nice score at the garage sale! You never know what you might find, especially if you get in early.
“Windows Me First” sounds like if they continued making Windows Me and named it like “Xbox One”. The second edition of Windows Me could’ve been “Windows Me Two”.
I've got to say, that was a really big brain play for putting capture card footage of the install and programs on a still frame of the setup
18:06 reflexively prepared to skip ad when that music started.

I've been searching garage sales, recycling centers, thrift stores and flea markets for this kind of stuff!
