We used 95, skipped 98 until se came out. We did a fair amount of Win2k, XP was pretty rough until service pack 2. When Serviceback 3 hit, we eradicated everything else on the desktop.
A lot. I had a Packard Bell 486 that came with 3.1 and a free upgrade. Except I would constantly get “Explorer.exe has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down” error.
One day I decided to compress the hard drive and for some reason, that fixed it. It never happened again.
…h…how many times did you have to reinstall Windows 95?*
*Before 98 came out? Lol
IT professional… SO MANY TIMES. Any not just reinstall, we were upgrading and doing primary installs.
I knew a 95 key and an office key. (which was easy because 1201234567 worked on O2k
This makes so much sense hahaha.
Probably giving away my years, but in my brain’s personal experience, Windows starts being an IT OS around the XP era. :p
Nobody was going to stay on 3.11
NT really lacked drivers and was super expensive.
