OH! The trees. Haha.
For anyone who is wondering DSMOS is an acronym for Don't Steal Mac OS. Its function is to prevent non-Apple Intel computers from booting Mac OS and this is achieved by encrypting important OS applications such as Finder so when the "DSMOS has arrived" line appears means that DSMOS has determined that this is a valid machine and will decrypt system applications.
you can try to mod the iso and disable it but i dont know if it will work i dont hackintosh
@@fart1234. it would work, but if you do hackintosh use a distro/ already modded iso

I've just installed a patched version of Catalina on my Mac pro 2008 3,1 runs brill love it and nice video mate enjoyed watching it.
Does everything work well because I’m planing on doing that too
Same, but I did it on my 2010 MacBook pro 13" 7,1
@@Themarc07I've only been running it for a couple days every seems to work, you just need to upgrade to high Sierra first or you need to do a system update that is hit or miss
20:05 so many bad memories of finishing college assignments late into the night because the damn professor would not take UNIX programs.
In fact, I had a similar setup for a while
Hold up what
What did the guy have against UNIX programs and software
My guess on why the XP tour looked so crisp is because I think usually people see it first then install graphics drivers
Haha, I hosted one of those house parties for Windows 7. Had a bunch of people come over with their Xbox 360s and we played Halo all night.
Dosdude's Catalina Patcher worked great on my 2010 Mini.
Watching both these installations, i realised something. Back then, computers used to be fun and friendly. From the welcoming intro video on mac os x installation, to the burst of colours on the windows xp (phase 2) even to the effects they both had (mac os had better effects tbh) or the search assistant you had in windows xp, computers tried to have a friendly feeling, while today's computers are kinda "cold" with all these glass wannabe themes.
Well, thats simply because computers were still technically in their infancy. Now they're very common, and whether or not people like to admit it we all go for performance rather than unnecessary add-ins that take up Operating System space and our time.
@@HeyItsSloth i wouldnt say computers were uncommon or in their infancy when snow leopard (2009) came out... maybe not even when windows xp (2001) was released.
@@HeyItsSloth No. The time of Snow Leopard and XP was LONG after the "infancy" of computers. It was the time when the internet really matured.
@@Michael-Archonaeus Oh, my reply wasnt sent, i guess my internet died, i had a whole in depth explanation as to why i thought that way. I'll probably rewrite it after class.
@@HeyItsSloth The infancy of electronic computers was in the ≈1950's and 60's. The wide adoption of personal computers happened in the ≈70's and 80's. Personal computers really matured in the 1990's. The infancy of the internet was in the late ≈1980's to the late 1990's. The wide adoption of the internet happened in the late ≈1990's and the first ≈3 years of the early 2000's. The internet really matured around ≈2006 to 2009, that's when web 2.0 was born.
From around ≈2009 to 2012 AI started taking over, and by ≈2014 had basically been adopted by everyone, it is still maturing.
≈2013-2018 was when the internet of things was born, and it is still in the wide adoption phase, and is far from mature yet.
So you see, we're *way* past the "infancy of computers." At least that's my take.
Snow Leopard is my all-time favorite Mac OS. The eye candy is what made it so special along with its features and capabilities. I switched in 2008 and my first Mac was the original aluminum iMac with Leopard and Snow Leopard just made a good thing great. I don’t understand why Apple has been removing features rather than adding them. I miss the colored sidebar, the 3-D dock, and the overall beautiful color scheme. I know I’m crazy but with each new install i disable the SIP, and use LiteIcon to change all the OS icons and folders to 10.6 and then tenable SIP. I just like the old Safari icon better. I keep an old install of SL on a virtual machine as well. I bought an old Mac Mini just to run it but now it isn’t compatible for daily use. Thanks for this video!!!
RIP Flash.
I'll miss you with all of my heart, GTTTATINT. You served me well during school.
Happy that I’m not the only one who’s source of entertainment back in the day is the Windows XP Tour
See, the thing about nostalgia is that you have to leave things alone for a while. I've never left things I enjoyed or remembered alone, so nostalgia's pretty rare for me. I'd say that it's the internet's fault, but I happily brought it upon myself.
"I'm considering hosting a booth next year."
😬
Honestly, it's amazing that the Mac still works after everything that's happened to it!
YES, please do the Zune video!
Thank you Steve, for the donation: new startup message
3:04 technically its still a CD. even if its a DVD its a CompactDisc nontheless.
4bl0xx or you could call it an Optical Disc, as it’s called an Optical Disc Drive(ODD)
haha I just installed snow leopard on my old 2009 macbook yesterday, sooo much faster than running sierra on it
Brandon Hussey yea but it is completely unsupported. You probably cannot browse the internet correctly since even safari or other browsers will not update on it
@@TheCrystalGlow I've long stopped using it so it's mostly to play with but so far I've been able to browse the internet okay
@@TheRocketdrone articfox is a browser that is still supported for these old Macs today. I recommend checking it out.
same. And today i managed to get lion hehe
I didn't know you could click and drag the help icon and I've installed XP many many times
Just had my first Snow Leopard experience. Installed it on a white MacBook from 2008. Damn that is a nice OS. So snappy and functional.
I just installed it on a 2006 iMac.
Snow Leopard ! The best design ever..! SO MUCH MEMORIES
Hello Progress bar my old friend.......we've come around to you again....
Great. Ken blew up the planet again.
Snow Leopard was the OS the drove me to save up and get my first Mac I loved it so much, I miss the 3D dock and it did have their best wallpaper!
Well, if you still have that Mac around and aren’t using it, you could always reinstall the original version it came with by pressing ⌘+⌥+⇧+R at startup (or Win + Alt + Shift + R). You could even repartition the disk in disk utility, and dual boot it (hold ⌥or Alt at startup to boot to a different volume)
@@alexanderstevenson6484 how did you get command and alt signs? (I don’t know how to name that)
also, Ken is lying about Expose not existing on macOS anymore, Expose still exists, it just got fused up into Mission Control
All the sounds from Windows XP gave me waves of nostalgia...
i lost my shit when i saw bumptop outta nowhere
1:59 I like that sound. xD
Can you put a larger ssd in a 2012 Mac Mini ?
8:22
I don’t know why but I have that song downloaded on my phone lol
same
20:06 ahhh... best sound back in the days where Windows XP is a thing
22:00 kind of. If you notice, it's on 4:3
Zune! A blast from the past.
Nice! I still remember when my college's TV studio got a batch of early 2009 24" Core 2 Duo iMacs for their video editing lab in the summer of 2009; they had 1 TB hard drives set up with Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard (original shipped OS) and a Boot Camp partition with Windows XP Professional on each, as they were using them to replace 2002 PowerMac G4 QuickSilver towers and Dell Optiplex towers as well. This was what inspired me to use Boot Camp as well, when I got my first Intel Mac two years later (a 2009 polycarbonate white MacBook).
Currently I actually have a similar dual-boot setup on one of my older Macs in my collection; Mac OS X Snow Leopard and a Windows XP Boot Camp partition set up on my 2006 Core Duo 15" MacBook Pro; it has a 256 GB SSD inside replacing the original 120 GB hard drive. But in other cases for my Windows XP needs (mostly retro gaming) I use a Windows XP virtual machine on VMWare Fusion on my 2012 15" unibody MacBook Pro. I also have one set up in UTM on my M1 MacBook Air, but it's not as reliable.
@23:00 Hrutkay Mods really needs to heed this advice. LOL
trip down memory lane...tech ages fast
20:25 Just right in the nostalgia
Bought one on eBay for $25 . Love it, runs Borderlands 2 , great.
I love these videos, Kreepy Ken! Please never stop!
Fun fact, RealArcade actually merged with GameHouse, the company that did Collapse!, and their service still works.
Also, never used RealArcade, I used iWin and WildTangent, because that came pre-installed on SO many desktops.
Bay Mashups wildtangent STILL comes preinstalled on hp systems
@@blakebates1085 I swore that it died off because everything detected it as a PUP.
I remember using Snow Leopard for 2 1/2 years, before upgrading to Lion.
Lion is alright, but frustrating at times.
My Mac that I installed it on (Mac Pro 1.1, flashed to a 2.1) only has Lion, while I'm trying to get a BootCamp partition working, but I have a 2007 (2008?) MacBook with a similar setup, with Snow Leopard and Windows XP as my BootCamp partition.
- Says he has no friends
- LGR comments on his videos
Yeah, zero sympathy :-)
I've actually been working on a RealArcade archive and we've gathered 200 games already. Nice to see you had RealArcade too.
I‘m new here, your channel is great!
Thank you : )
Great video! Have to disagree on one part...Apple’s best wallpaper is the Tiger wallpaper 😄
I had the house party kit too but I lost it in a move. I still have the tote bag though.
Ahhhhh, ShockWave...
So nostalgic
I can feel the nostalgia so badly 😍
My 2 favorite OSes!
Oh yeah yeah
9:45 god dammit Ken
I miss Snow Leopard GUI, my first learning hackintosh start from there.
Everything on OS X was shiny, cool and old-school styled until OS X Yosemite came to life. I like flat design but, skeuomorphic interface has just some sort of attractiveness.
RealArcade?
I see you're a man of culture as well.
I wanted to see what the late half of the 00's were like, when we are talking Mac. So I bought a Mac Mini with Core2duo and GF9400. Installed Snow Leropard and WinXP. I believe this is when Apple were the best in terms of quality and how long the product would work without breaking down. To my surprise, then it turns out that the late 2009 Mac Mini 2.26 GF9400 is one hell of a "retro" XP gaming machine. It has the horsepower and tiny foot print for 2001 to 2008 XP games in 1024x768. And with 4gb of Ram, it is even usefull for the 2013 version of Minecraft. I love that machine as it made me interrested in XP games again. Something I never thought I would be at all.
And I thought I was the only person who laughed at driver.cab
There's no way .cab is a TLD now
This was so entertaining I almost didn't notice I had been watching for 36 minutes
And 4 seconds. Yep?
Damn. I had to reinstall Windows XP so many times, I actually to this day still have the entire 25 character product key memorized.
So you got the leopard in and then went through the windows eXPirience to ease out
21:30 "30 days left for activation" in right corner
The blue installer is a left over from NT that were released back in the mid-90's. It might have been in NT 3 however I have never seen NT install, that are older than NT 3.51.
Win 3.11 looked a bit and slightly different, during installation. More like MS Dos 5 to 6.22 installation. However there are many design elements that are the same all across the board.
The only thing I am actually missing from NT. And that is the absolute first screen, that lists CPU type and numbers. It is displayed in high res txt mode. I actually dont know if it is a boot loader or not, but it is something really professional looking and gives this feeling that is hard to describe.
I remember installing xp on a intel pc, it took forever, my amd 1800xp+ took minutes.
Oh and would love to see you and Clint do some content together! :)
Your adventures trying to run the Windows XP games from your backup disk makes me nostalgic for the way Classic Mac OS (and some newer macOS) programs install. You just copied the program folder into your Applications folder, and unless there was some copy protection fail, it usually ran perfectly. I "borrowed" so much good software from my Mac-using friends that way. If you do that with Windows software, it's always a crapshoot and I'm always surprised when the program works at all on a computer other than the one it's been installed. As for Linux software... well, unless it's an AppImage, you're just better off redownloading from the package manager.
the best part of Windows XP was the setup music lets be fair.
Happy Halloween to everyone!
0:10 “I’m just gonna put Chicago oh no I blacked out the whole plant did I break the power grid again”
Have Catalina running fine on my Mac mini 3.1 2009 after seeing part 1 and not wanting to wait for part 2 to see if it worked. Surprised you couldn't do it in part 2 as never followed that video up.
Downloading a compatible version of chrome will enable you to browse the web, however you will need to press a button that says something equivalent to “continue at your own risk” I know this from fiddling with a virtual machine ;)
I hope you never take druaga out of the intro
Fred Gray made the music for Mutants on the Commodore 64 which is my favourite C64 music
I really want to get snow leopard on my 2009 MacBook Pro!
So much blue. Everywhere!
I think if you install XP and connect it to the internet in this day and age, you immediately get viruses? Good vid though!
Nah, it doesn't work like that. You're not gonna get a virus if you go on TH-cam and Reddit, for example, really any secure websites, on XP.
NT setup 3.1 to XP started with a MS-DOS stage to handle the first stages of setup. Vista forward moved to Windows PE as a setup environment completely dropping DOS and the requirement to have a floppy disk.
Me: I installed XP this week!
Ken: I have not installed XP in years!
Me: you don’t know what a VM is?
He knows what a vm is, also for what reason would he use xp in a vm?
@@Maciek2846 because why not
I tried that Catalina patcher on my Mac Pro tower and I successfully bricked it.
Man, I really miss the 3D dock and the blue scroll bar. The interfaces today are so minimalistic and boring.
to bad the audio drivers werent on when installing windows xp, ahhh the install music is so nostalgic
Yes, Zune! I had one of those.
What about the activation of XP ?
... and i believe Snow Leopard was the final OS that you could run your licensed box version of Adobe Suite.. And of course all the Creative Live, etc, tutorials presume you're running the latest OS and your monthly rental of Photoshop etc from Adobe... So we do what we have to. 😀
RealArcade merged with GameHouse years ago, so there might still be a chance to play that pinball game in its entirety again.
32:01
Windows XP [X]
Task failed successfully
[Ok]
Will you ever make an episode about the lore, because you were talking about the guards in this episode.
Microsoft: Nobody uses Windows XP These days, So we ended the support for it.
Me: Hold my 4 GB Ram stick
19:31 heh, not anymore..
Damn I missed xp
It’s amazing how primitive Windows, and DOS before it, have always been compared to contemporary versions of Mac OS. I’d say only since Windows 10 has Microsoft really caught up to an experience comparable to Mac OS, but using Windows is still pretty painful.
Windows 8.1 was nice.
Very fluid.
Funny thing is Ken, DSMOS IS very important x)
That little thing actually talks with the SMC on your Mac to make sure the system is actually starting on an actual Apple product and not on a "normal" PC.
@@of-ravens-claw Yeah, it kinda matters since you need to replace that kext
Interestingly, it doesn't exist at all on PowerPC Macs.
@@of-ravens-claw I know. What I'm saying is that DSMOS doesn't exist on PPC Tiger/Leopard, only Intel has it .
@@ephemeralViolette Before DSMOS, when Apple had their DTK to developers, they actually encrypted the font server and rosetta and had a TPM chip to decrypt these files (the system would not boot into GUI mode without that). Early 2006 Mac Pros actually still have that TPM chip, but it's unused
@@mspeter97 idk, I can run ppc mac os x on qemu with no modifications just fine
Doy ou actually live 10 stories underground and isolated by guards?
I WILL COMPUTER CLAN:)
...are you SURE Dock Expose doesn’t exist any more? I feel like the force touch action on the dock in modern versions does pretty much exactly this, unless I am misremembering.
My power went out last night lol
DVINTHEHOUSEMAN- BigBowb1e Productions nobody cares
Please wipe the fingerprints of the monitor, I have OCD and this is driving me crazy
We still have XP on our home computer.
Dsmos sounds like a pun of msdos
More like an anagram, but yes!
23:40 cmon ie sucks use the last Version of Firefox that works on xp without telling it it was 10
don't forget to install MSN Browser.
Actually, the activation didn't work. It said:
30 days of activation left
Try to listen to the kktm startup music at 0.5x
