- The Most Noob Windows 98 Machine (Part 1)E5
The Most Noob Windows 98 Machine (Part 1)A long overdue nostalgia project. I spent nearly a week getting this system all set up and ready to game. For a machine made entirely of spare parts, I'm quite pleased with the results. This is part one of two videos about the Win98 Machine and the games I play on it. - Win98 LAN Party: Star Wars Episode I: RacerE12
Win98 LAN Party: Star Wars Episode I: RacerAkBKukU and I finally tackle the Pod Racer multiplayer on Windows 98 over IPX LAN. A lifelong dream for both of us, finally has come true. But is it as fun as we remember? Spoiler: It is. As far as we can tell, this is still the de-facto way to play this game, especially for multiplayer. However it is still possible to play this game on modern systems, and have it work quite well. We may have a future video about running the game on newer machines, but for the time being, Windows 98 is where it's at. This is also the largest and longest video project I've ever done to date. - Arkenstone OBK-SPE DecTalk 1010 Speech SynthesizerE17
Arkenstone OBK-SPE DecTalk 1010 Speech SynthesizerI take an in-depth (perhaps too in-depth) look at a dedicated speech synthesis computer from Arkenstone. I bought this back in 2010 for around $200 on eBay. I've been wanting to make a video about this computer since then, but I've always hesitated on starting the project because it's really dry subject matter which only reminds me of the frustration of programming DecTalk for singing using MS-DOS. Here's the video anyway, detailing everything there is to know about this machine. If i can ever get it's original hard disk working and bootable, ill showcase the Windows 3.11 DecTalk tools. ... If they even exist or, much less, work. - Installing Mac OS X on an SD CardE19
Installing Mac OS X on an SD Card I managed to score a free Mac Mini a few weeks ago, but it ended up having a bad hard drive. So I took out the adapter and SD card from my last experiment, and threw it in the "new" Mac Mini to see if I could get it to do anything. Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard was installed on a Mac Mini (Powermac10,2 / Late 2005) with a 1.5 GHZ PPC G4 with 512 MB of RAM, using a 32 GB SD card as it's main startup disk. While I was recording this video I went in totally blind and had no idea whether or not this was going to work. I had never taken apart a Mac Mini before and I didn't even know what type of hard disk was in the Mac Mini. I got really lucky. - Power Mac G4 Adventures (Part 3)E21
Power Mac G4 Adventures (Part 3)I found some parts to upgrade thePower Mac G4. Here's what we can do with them, and how they can enhance our G4 experience. I also mispronounce Radeon at least six times. I actually read the wrong spec sheet for this model, it can actually have 1.5 GB of RAM. Interestingly enough, I have just enough extra RAM to ACTUALLY max this out, but I don't think you'd be able to tell the difference if I had. - The "Ultimate" DOS Machine - RedemptsurrectionE25
The "Ultimate" DOS Machine - RedemptsurrectionThe UDM makes a comeback! Now with all new hardware in 60 FPS! In this video I revisit the revisited video and get it done right, with a few extra things. This video will cover the DOS portion of this build, next week's video will cover the Windows 3.11 portion. - The Mac 512k and The Floppy Disk Emulator (Part 1)E30
The Mac 512k and The Floppy Disk Emulator (Part 1)Another video about booting a computer off of an SD card. This is for sure the oldest one yet! But I cheated a bit this time. (See parts) This literally works as easily as plugging it in and selecting an image. The Floppy Emu is connected to the Mac's rear external floppy connector port. - The Mac 512k and The Floppy Disk Emulator (Part 2)E31
The Mac 512k and The Floppy Disk Emulator (Part 2)After a slight YouTube hiatus I return with part 2 of me messing around with random disk images on the Mac 512k using the floppy disk emulator. This is a lengthy video with minimal (yet, still time consuming) editing. I remember hearing that some of you preferred long uncut videos? Let me know if you get bored. - Playing 4 RTS Games At OnceE38
Playing 4 RTS Games At OncePepsi and I play the following RTS games all at the same time: - Starcraft II: Heart of the Swarm - Grey Goo - Age of Empires II: HD Edition - Planetary Annihilation - All games were set up as 2v2 vs AI - Pepsi apparently set the difficulty too high on the Grey Goo game =/ Other than that every other game was in a very easy/winable mode. - Installing Windows ME on a Quantum Bigfoot TXE41
Installing Windows ME on a Quantum Bigfoot TXEverything went better than expected. I also have trouble pronouncing graphics card names. Copypasta from Wickerpeads: The third series of Bigfoot drives was known as the Quantum Bigfoot TX series. This series increased the drives' spindle speed to 4,000 RPM and upgraded their interface capabilities to ATA-66. These drives carried the higher capacities of 4 GB, 6 GB, 8 GB, and 12 GB. Like the CY series, access time was advertised as under 12 ms. The 12 GB model is noteworthy for being the first hard drive to attain a capacity in the double digits of gigabytes. Quantum claimed that these drives could outperform many of the 3.5-inch drives on the market at the time. - Installing Windows 10 on RAID 0E43
Installing Windows 10 on RAID 0Things to know about this video: -I slur words probably due to lack of sleep -This video took longer to make because reasons -There are probably a lot of innacuracies related to RAID as i'm not very familiar with it. So get ready to yell at me. - The Imation SuperDisk Drive (Filmed with Tyco VideoCam)E52
The Imation SuperDisk Drive (Filmed with Tyco VideoCam)You have to be a real trooper to watch through this whole thing. This is the requested video. I really have no idea how it got this long. (This video camera is cursed and likes to make a LOT of video footage) Man there's enough empty space in that thing, I could fit like a raspberry pi in it or something. (maybe i will!) This video took 15 hours to upload. - Druaga1 Q&A Answers VideoE53
Druaga1 Q&A Answers VideoHappy New Year everyone! Holy crap this turned out being WAY longer than I expected. For those of you who just like to hear me talk, this is the video for you. Thanks everyone for all the questions. Sorry those of you I didn't get to. I agreed to make this video as Deadpixelator suggested that I make it as a 6000 subscriber milestone. Oddly enough, in the time it took me to make it and upload it, I managed to get up to almost 7000 subscribers! Thank you all! - The Big Win 98 Machine Overhaul VideoE55
The Big Win 98 Machine Overhaul VideoSomeone said they wanted longer videos... Right? Specs of the "new" Win 98 Machine (+/- comparison with Original build) : ASUS A7V-133 Motherboard (Same model mobo as the first video!) AMD Athlon XP 1700+ @ 1.4 GHZ (+) 512 MB of PC100 (probably) RAM (I'll install more if i need it)(-) 32 GB KingSpec 2.5-inch PATA/IDE SSD w/ full size IDE adapter(+) Matrox Millennium G450 DualHead w/ 32 MB of VRAM (+ & - ?) Sound Blaster Live! Sound Card (+) Hauppauge WinTV TV Tuner Card 1 DVD Reader Drive & 1 CD-RW Drive (+) Beige Generic Case (+) - Installing Mac OS 7.6 on a Performa 630CD?E56
Installing Mac OS 7.6 on a Performa 630CD?After all my editing and corrections for the video, I overlooked the most obvious indicator for what the computer this even is. The model number is on the bottom of the case. It seems just the front panel is incorrect. Oh how trusting that caused me so much woe! Hopefully the video is still enjoyable even though I'm getting pretty hyped for it being 68k... when it's not. Software that now works probably just works because it works well only on System 7 which seems to be the real hero of this video. This video took 17-18 hours to make. Hope it was worth it! Also sorry for the audio issues in the non-video parts, I literally just ran out of my free time to fix that. - A Very Special Sound Blaster Live! VideoE59
A Very Special Sound Blaster Live! VideoThe Sound Blaster video is here! And I cant make short videos any more! Lot of rambling in this episode, but there are a few surprises sprinkled in as well. Special thanks to Richard Audd for letting me use his song in the video! - After Dark Marathon (10,000 Sub Special)E61
After Dark Marathon (10,000 Sub Special)The longest video ever! There may be some compression artifacting, I had to compress the hell out of this video for it to upload in time. (ended up being a 2.2 GB file) Most of the stuff onscreen should look fine at lower bitrates even still. Here is me playing with most of the After Dark screen savers on the Macintosh Performa 6200 running Mac OS 7.6 This video has VERY minimal editing to give it that "marathon/stream" feel to it. Enjoy! Also I had no idea I could do video capture on this old of a machine. So go figure. - A Crazy Emulated Historical MacKeeper VideoE66
A Crazy Emulated Historical MacKeeper VideoI install multiple versions of MacKeeper to study it's half-decade evolution ....and things happen. This video went places that I didn't expect (Such as the Soviet Union, Twitter and danooct1's toothpaste tube). It's also crazy long. Why can't I make shorter videos? ;_; Have fun you crazy marathon-ers! - Can the Win98 Machine Handle Minecraft?E68
Can the Win98 Machine Handle Minecraft?Windows 98 Machine Specs: (I forgot most of the specs and say the wrong things in the video a lot so use this as the proper guide): ASUS A7V-133 Motherboard AMD Athlon XP 1700+ @ 1.4 GHZ 512 MB of PC100 (probably) RAM 32 GB KingSpec 2.5-inch PATA/IDE SSD w/ full size IDE adapter Matrox Millennium G450 DualHead w/ 32 MB of VRAM (And then later): Nvidia 3DForce FX-5200 with 128 MB VRAM Sound Blaster Live! Sound Card Hauppauge WinTV TV Tuner Card 1 DVD Reader Drive & 1 CD-RW Drive Beige Generic Case - Windows 2 (Part 1: "Building" the "Rig")E70
Windows 2 (Part 1: "Building" the "Rig")Splitting this video into parts to accelerate the release of this extremely long video. (especially because there wasn't a real video last week). No, the parts wont be an hour long each, but there is just so much crap going on in this video that this was way easier. Oh yeah and here I get ready to install Windows 2 n stuff. Enjoy. - Windows 2 (Part 2: Installing Stuff & Forgetting about Jumpers)E71
Windows 2 (Part 2: Installing Stuff & Forgetting about Jumpers)Since I'm so used to things being easy with newer computers, I get complacent and forget a bunch of things I learned from long ago. Enjoy. Also DOS can be horribly frustrating. Expect these videos to have a lot of troubleshooting cut out =\ - Windows 2 (Part 3: DOS_HELL)E72
Windows 2 (Part 3: DOS_HELL)Continuing the weird "video-a-day" experiment: I present to you the most boring, cringe-worthy experience of me troubleshooting DOS. (And frankly, I'm as terrible at it as I always have been.) Can you survive? I noticed that I probably reinstalled a bunch of stuff more times that I needed to. Oh well. - Installing a GT 420 in the XserveE74
Installing a GT 420 in the XserveHappy 420 Smokers! This video is a bit noisy because server. Hopefully it's still watchable. If not, I'm sure there is some weed somewhere for ya. Also, apparently someone came up with the idea for this video right around the same hour I did. We got dat blaze connection, chaknowmsayink? - The ReactOS VideoE75
The ReactOS VideoFrom what I've learned, ReactOS is intended to mimic Windows Server 2003/NT 5.1 and newer versions of directX are supposedly supported. I avoided newer games to avoid the long install times (ie doom 3, call of duty etc) Since they probably wouldn't end up working. The downside is i ended up trying most of the games from the Win9x era which ReactOS is not intended to replicate. So oh well. Also this video is pretty boring (since it is quite difficult to even get the simplest of things working, and takes a long time) and sorta makes ReactOS look kinda bad (it's VERY incomplete) which is not really my intention, i think the ReactOS project is awesome as hell and i wish the developers much luck in their endeavors. - Windows XP to 10 Upgrade Fest on a 2007 MacBook with an SSDE81
Windows XP to 10 Upgrade Fest on a 2007 MacBook with an SSDThere were a lot of requests for what to do with this MacBook, so I did all of them... sorta. It took a long time. Upgrade Path: Windows XP Pro Windows Vista Ultimate Windows 7 Ultimate Windows 8 Pro Windows 10 Pro - Doom Coop with a C.H.I.P. and Raspberry Pi V3E84
Doom Coop with a C.H.I.P. and Raspberry Pi V3AkBKukU and I play DOOM once again, forced to play as close to the original style as possible due to lack of doom support on the ARM architecture. It's a lets play video with an even more lengthy "making of Linux troubleshooting" video which will follow it later on. We had to compile the chocolate doom source code for our platforms (which is apparently a pretty common thing when it comes to Linux.) - Installing Linux Mandrake 7.0E86
Installing Linux Mandrake 7.0Here I become overwhelmed by the insanity of late 90's linux and become sidetracked trying to do one thing for an hour. WHY ARE THERE SO MANY PACKAGES. I seriously couldn't find all the apps it said it had. Never trust the hellish. This is why I never do linux videos =C The GNOME help browser sure looked like a web browser and probably would work as one, but I didn't have internet working to use it anyway. - Creating the SSD Linux NetbookE87
Creating the SSD Linux NetbookInstall SSD in Netbook, Install Lubuntu. Simple right? This is the best example of things going wrong. There are also a lot of things that could be taken out of context in this video. inb4 edited clips I'm also noticing I start to mimic the speaking style of whatever YouTube I happen to be watching at the time of making any particular video. If you can tell which YouTubers I have been watching while i have been making these... holy crap, it'll be like looking at rings in a tree, i swear. - Looking back at 10 Years on YouTubeE89
Looking back at 10 Years on YouTubeI know some of you were expecting some sort of crazy SSD video to celebrate my 10th year on youtube, but that wouldn't represent what has happened over all these years. My channel was not always as it is now. Back then, it served as a stream of consciousness over time of what happened to interest me back then. Here's a summary of some old videos I uploaded over the years, most of them have been taken down for various reasons and briefly return from the grave here. - Ian's Computer Show - Episode 1 (2007)E93
Ian's Computer Show - Episode 1 (2007)Strap on your anti-cringe hemp headbands, you're going to need them! This is the first episode in a multi-part series that spanned almost 3 episodes! I have enough old footage to create probably a total of 4 or 5 episodes for you guys, but this is one of two that were fully edited and previously uploaded (and later removed, of course). In this episode, I try to get audio working on an IBM Aptiva 550 running Windows 98. Then I get some asinine idea to downgrade the processor to one that won't fit. Luckily that doesn't happen in this episode. (This was the originally edited footage). - Ian's Computer Show - Episode 2 (2007)E95
Ian's Computer Show - Episode 2 (2007)If you thought the last episode was bad, just you wait! This is the second episode in a multi-part series that .. well only had 2 episodes uploaded, this being the second one. I have a lot of old footage still, so I might make some funny edits to the old footage that was intended to be serious later on. In this episode I really lose track of what I'm doing. So basically like every normal Druaga1 episode. I go from trying to downgrade the processor to defragmenting the hard disk, then partitioning the drive for dual booting windows 3.11 and 98. Basically a bunch of random stuff that didn't end up working (or at least it was never shown). Currently, the next teased episode never really existed (unless you count The Ultimate DOS Machine as an episode (that video was released in July) I was speaking quietly in the beginning of the video because it was late and I was supposed to be in bed. - Recording DV on Windows XPE99
Recording DV on Windows XPDV Camcorder used: Sony DCR-TRV19 HD Camcorder used for recording this video: Sony HDR-CX150 Other notes: -WinDV auto splits clips into separate files every time you "cut" on the video tape, it also only starts recording when it's getting a video stream (you wont record the "blueness" of blank tape area) -AmCap probably works fine if you're using a better camera, it can be downloaded from one of the links below. -Windows XP boots in about 30 seconds from the press of the power button (so that includes BIOS so whatever) - Ian's Computer Show - Episode 3 (2007A)E100
Ian's Computer Show - Episode 3 (2007A)Have you always wanted to see an alternate-timeline 2007 where I continued the Ian's Computer Show series and never took it off YouTube? Now is your chance to experience a video that never should have existed. I apparently tried to download a keygen and it just deleted itself on launch, I assumed this to be a virus (it probably was some form of trojan) I then proceeded to download random stuff that seemed suspicious/scary/DOS (DOS is scary and suspicious) in an effort to infect the machine as fast as possible. This didn't pan out and I ended up creating the footage for the original "How to mess up windows me" video, by deleting a bunch of stuff from the windows folder. - Ian's Computer Show - Episode 4 (2007A)E103
Ian's Computer Show - Episode 4 (2007A)Learn the fascinating origins of the Ultimate DOS Machine in this exclusive look into Druaga1's past, featuring a never before seen vlog! Back in the old days of YouTube, custom thumbnails weren't an option unless you were partner or something. Back then, we had to take what YouTube gave us. So here's a thumbnail that doesn't properly represent anything in the video since the image in question only appeared for literally half a second. - 3D Body Adventure - Halloween ReviewE109
3D Body Adventure - Halloween ReviewHappy Halloween! Get ready for some spoops. I put extra effort into this one both to finally address my history with 3D Body Adventure, and to sorta semi celebrate 60k subs, thanks guys! 3d body adventure is devoid of any escapism or humor(save for the Body Recall victory cartoon), it is a bleak, hopeless and stressful experience that is unfriendly to a child audience. It also currently holds 0 educational value due to all of it's information being 20+ years out of date. There is a special circle of hell for people who are forced to edit 3D body videos. You might say i went to hell and back to make this. - Risking it all - SE/30 Floppy Drive ReplacementE114
Risking it all - SE/30 Floppy Drive ReplacementIn the naming scheme used at that time, Apple indicated the presence of a 68030 processor by adding the letter "x" to a model's name, but when the Macintosh SE was updated to the 68030, this posed an awkward problem, as Apple was not willing to name their new computer the "Macintosh SEx". Thus, "SE/30" was the name chosen. - Crysis on the 2006 Mac ProE117
Crysis on the 2006 Mac ProHappy New Year! Here's a simple video of me revisiting the Crysis experience on the Mac Pro, something I haven't done for 10 years. It was VERY laggy last time I tried it... Lets give it another go, this time with a GeForce 8800 GT (1GB VRAM) and 12 GB of RAM. - Installing MorphOS on an iBook G4E119
Installing MorphOS on an iBook G4This is a good example of how not reading and researching things carefully can result in blundering errors. In this episode, I install the wrong OS and don't realize this until I'm done editing. My intention was to install AmigaOS, NOT MorphOS which is just amiga-like. FML - Running a DOOM Server on Windows NT Server 3.51 (Part 1)E136
Running a DOOM Server on Windows NT Server 3.51 (Part 1)AkBKukU has stepped up to make a video for the channel while I'm on break. Some people have had trouble telling our voices apart. Maybe you won't be able to either, and it will just be another Druaga1 video. This video was 100% Edited on Linux using Blender. - GameMaker and Beyond - The Indie Developer Diaries DeuxE143
GameMaker and Beyond - The Indie Developer Diaries DeuxIn a parallel universe, I become an indie game developer. I go on to develop both Braid and Machinarium. Both games turn out to be enormous critical failures. Eventually I sell out to Infinity Ward to help develop Ride to Hell: Retribution, which releases to critical acclaim. For historical reference, Red Dead Redemption exists as a Miniclip flash game in this universe. Every middle schooler from 2004 has played it. - Trying to Patch Starcraft on Win98E148
Trying to Patch Starcraft on Win98A "Raw" stream segment from our December Windows 98 LAN party. Here, AkBKukU and I work tirelessly to acquire and install a working patch for Starcraft so we can play a game to wrap up our streaming day. There may be some procrastination involved. - Installing Windows 3.11 in DOSBoxE150
Installing Windows 3.11 in DOSBox Ah crap, now there's gonna need to be a part 2 of this because I missed some cool stuff. Other video ideas that didn't work out for today: -Windows 1 PAINT on Sierra -Manually Migrating Logic Express Sampler Instruments -Installing Window ME in DOSBox Maybe I should make a failure montage video? - Remembering JellyCar (RIP 32-bit iOS Apps)E154
Remembering JellyCar (RIP 32-bit iOS Apps)iOS 11 cometh. On March 26, 2014, Disney Interactive Studios announced that both JellyCar 2 and JellyCar 3 would be retired, along with many other applications, and that the applications would no longer be available for download. - Circumvent KRACK and Protect your WiFiE159
Circumvent KRACK and Protect your WiFiOr, you know, DON'T sabotage your mac mini and just use it normally, it's WiFi broadcast range is probably garbage anyway. Had some nice testing with blurry censor bars. Too bad they kinda wrecked the video and no nobody will believe me that my wifi sucks oh well. Disclaimer: This video is satirical, but it is technically correct, since the attacker for this exploit does need to be in range of your WiFi signal to skim any information. Also the mac mini looks like it's turned off because i broke the LED internally when reassembling it because I'm terrible. - Using a Netbook as a DOS-only music playerE162
Using a Netbook as a DOS-only music playerSomehow it worked, I'm not sure how. Mpxplay is magic, that's how. I'll find some way to mount this properly and i'll figure out what the best solution for resizing the drive is. Even if it means reinstalling windows. (or dos somehow) - Saying goodbye to my entire AIM buddy list (RIP AIM 1997-2017)E167
Saying goodbye to my entire AIM buddy list (RIP AIM 1997-2017)Thanks for all the memories and for changing my life forever, AIM. You will be missed. And yes, every single person was offline and had moved on years ago. ...Should have done this on Windows 98, dangit! - I will never get Lego Rock Raiders workingE170
I will never get Lego Rock Raiders workingA short video of me trying ... again.. to get Lego Rock Raiders working on Windows 10. Something that is supposedly possible. Reading instructions is also supposedly possible. I'll keep trying this until i can get it running and then beat it on Windows 10 ore something. - Kane's Spam HD (Pendulum Parody)E218
Kane's Spam HD (Pendulum Parody)This is a music video that celebrates all the fun i had LAN party-ing CNC late into the night with my high school buddies a decade ago. Ten years ago this month I uploaded "Command and Conquer: Kane's Spam" which was a terribly low quality, laggy clip video of all my FRAPS recordings of CnC:KW put to Granite by Pendulum. It was so bad, I even re-made the video in iMovie (which had HD support or something) a year or so later. I was hoping to make that my first HD video on Youtube, but the actual source footage was only 480p. So it wasn't really HD. A decade later, I came across the original raw FRAPS footage again and tried to see if i could re-edit the old videos more precisely using my modern editing software. Some inspiration happened and I decided to re-create all the footage, the song itself and put in my own parody lyrics using DecTalk. - A Technical Look at LEGO Island's SoundtrackE220
A Technical Look at LEGO Island's SoundtrackUsing Office 97 to make graphs about a 1997 game and both still work on Windows 10 - Eat your heart out macOS! I use "Raw PCM data" interchangeably with "uncompressed audio" I was also off on the dates of the LEGO island anniversary because i got the release date wrong when i wrote the script sorry. - Investigating Lego Racer's Music FilesE221
Investigating Lego Racer's Music FilesHappy 20th Anniversary Lego Racers! (well in a few months anyway) Also I couldn't power slide to the left for some reason. Also my dad was like "Wtf are you doing" when i went to go look out of the window XD This took almost two full days to complete. Using king kahuka served a dual purpose of being the de-facto weed guy and being my favorite racer when i was a kid. - Installing Windows 2000 on an SSD... AgainE226
Installing Windows 2000 on an SSD... AgainThis is a video I planned on being the 100k special to revisit a video which begain a style of videos that really got my channel off the ground back in the day, but the timing didn't line up quite that well, and the initial footage wasn't that great. As a result, I ditched the video and started working on another video that was much more complex/involved and I currently cant see it getting done anytime soon. So I decided to remake the Win 2000 SSD video in the interim while I continue work on the other video since it's been a very long time since I've uploaded. - The Year-Long Packard Bell Factory RestoreE237
The Year-Long Packard Bell Factory RestoreAlmost a year of procrastination, dozens of video editor crashes, frustration, problems, making the same mistake over and over, struggling with audio issues, being generally disinterested, and an entire second editing pass is what brings this video to you today. As you can see by the onscreen dates, this was done over the course of the pandemic and you can probably tell that I'm less with it than normal. Also I wasn't really THAT excited about the project after navigator didn't work initially so I gave up on it several times. - I played 30 levels of Wingnuts 2 so you don't have to.E238
I played 30 levels of Wingnuts 2 so you don't have to.Check out Digital Droo (and my stuff if you want!). All music in the video is from either Wingnuts 2 or from Digital Droo's Beginnings album. Special thanks to Kdenlive for existing. I edited this monstrosity with it and didn't have any random timeline crashes (only crashed when I was doing stupid settings stuff). This is unheard of in my experience and remarkable considering how ridiculously large this project was (Likely my biggest one yet). Sure, it chugged a whole lot and created a buttload of proxy files to do it, but It actually worked! Next time ill try something a little less ambitious.
