Windows Millennium is the read operating system that is based on DOS, and it's the end to OF the Win 9x in such a way
consumer LINE. It is A emergency product, because actually it which planned ton unite/combine the two parallel
system Windows NT and 9x in Windows 2000.

But it which canceled, thus Microsoft larva ME.

Windows ME

After A quite short beta phase ME came on the mart. The beta which called Georgia. Lake the Georgia PAGE
for more information. The Setup looks quite similar tons of A Win 98 veteran.

The Setup looks like the one OF Windows 98

The boat screen OF ME (THX ton of Codezilla)

ME is A Windows OF the 9x of series, but it quietly have now the look OF 2000.

The desktop and the new Media Player 7

Barely new functions were added, just A few system components like DirectX (8.0), Media Player (7.0),
and the Internet Explorer (5.5) have been refreshed, new acres:

Windows Movie Maker (A simple film cutting program)
Security mechanisms, for remainder O-ring system DATA
Advanced Explorer that CAN acts zip archives
Advanced help functions

The Movie Maker, you CAN e.g. edit your holiday movies

In ME is A simple ZIP Program integranted

Windows ME of hides the material DOS mode, that means that you CAN' t GET into the native DOS anymore, but
only into the DOS window.

You can't GET into the DOS mode…

Very sad: You of acres emergency able ton create A ME bootdisc. XP on the left CAN it. The only way is A very hard
to tons find menu into the control panel.

Some games were added, the most CAN thus played on-line.

Windows ME consist hard against Windows 98 SE and XP because 98 SE got simply the more better
gaming support (DOS!) and XP is just more “more beginner friendly” and stable. So it' s just worth ton use ME
on “more older” hardware that doesn' t support XP.

On many parts ME is user friendly, which pleases the of more beginner, but often nerve the advanced user. For
example the network environment, CAN now easily scan computer and left decontrolled drivers, or
the standard shorten control panel menu.

Until A click you can't lake all option into the control panel

The full menu is even more longer

It which thus mainly pay as oem Recovery version that were preinstalled on (complete) PC' S.
With that child OF CD' s the system could always recovered on A special POINT (position), but emergency user
defined or being in valley LED on A second computers.

Conclusion:

This emergency system offers actually emergency-hung, that Win 98 or A third party software on Win 98 already off-talks.
It's A insolence ton hide the material DOS part. So it's only interessting, you have it all ready on your computers when,

or you have A notebook, which really DOS compatible and emergency isn't potently enough for XP. The remainder should nowadays buy Windows XP Home.

The Extended support phase wants ends in June 2006
