what are all the windows out and what one do you have.?

Question

i mean like window xp

Answer 1

Going back from MS-DOS (Microsoft Disc Operating System) FAT 8, 12 and, most common, 16.



Windows 3.11 is still used in factories for equipment and servers. It uses a FAT (File Allocation Table) 16 and runs from DOS.

Windows NT 4.0 (New Technology) and used NTFS (New Technology File System), this was for commercial use and won't recognize FAT 32 or FAT 16 at all.

Windows 95, which was a hybrid and initially ran FAT 16 but was converted to FAT 32.

Windows 98 was the first system the Microsoft produced commercially that would not run DOS as it was strictly a FAT32.

Window ME (Millennium), just Windows 98 with multimedia cra* loaded (this was a real dog).

Next in line is NT 5.0 or more commonly known as Windows 2000. This version used either FAT 32 or NTFS. This system will make use of 32 gigabyte hard drives or greater without any disc tools. It will also recognize FAT 32 and FAT 16 (but won't run many of the FAT 16 programs)

Windows XP (home and Pro), just an updated version of NT 5.0 with more multimedia capability.

Windows Vista, the first potentially commercial 64 bit OS. Don't know much about it except my nephew, who has been a MS engineer for 10 years, told me it is a total piece of junk and to wait until the next version in about 10 months.



I have several PC. I run Redhat Fedora and DOS 6.2 on my one that I use for development. I run Windows 2000 on my business PC and Windows XP pro for my cross over, business apps and gaming. I like Windows 2000 the best, it seems the most stable but balks at some of the games I tried on it, that's why the XP.
