Thanks you

Haha you know it. 50 cents from the French Thrift shop hopefully it helps with my French 😉

Yeah bro 100% you can and you can install from software manager. I was more trying to show how terminal works as a quick over view sometimes its the only way to do things like change paging file size etc. Its easy for us but some people have never used commands before so was hoping to show its not so hard...

Thats the way I was thinking about dual booting my more modern PC to try it out since it runs so well and by the sound of that I might even get a boost as Windows 10 is so over-encumbered these days. Thanks mate!

@@TheDiWhyGuy you can always get them back windows etc as long as you have the usb stick you are laughing just have to tinker a bit with some games but the rewarding part is what makes it worth it

100% I would love to see how it preforms in video editing as my 8 year old CPU starting to show its age and I can not afford to upgrade these days as PC's getting way over priced and the reliability is getting out of hand. Thanks 4 you advice. 😊

Thanks, will do!

Thanks brother 😁

Thanks for watching brother 😁

Thats fair there are a lot of other options so that should be no problem for you. Thanks ao much mate.

Yeah brother you know it can't go wrong!

@@TheDiWhyGuy Yeah, if I never found out about Linux, I wouldn't enjoy using my computer.

I fully get that what's your go to distro?

@@TheDiWhyGuy I run Gentoo on 2 of my machines, and EndeavourOS on one of my machines.

Cool I never tried those ones I should check them out

Haha glad you enjoyed it. Thanks brother! Just use Adobe and a 1001 cuts just try take out anything that wastes time i always skipping slow parts when I watch videos so i try take them out of my videos. Hope that halps my old videos were pretty rubbish but its all part of the learning process so just keep at it mate!

Thanks so much every sub counts hopefully one day I can hit 1000 and make a bit of cash to keep this channel going haha well I still got one working GoPro so expect more videos soon also next time you got editing to do hit me up I can try help you out my email is thediwhyguy@gmail.com cheers brother!

Thanks mate 😆 got to make fun of billionaires to think poeple defending that Microsoft guy like he didn't rip off CPM OS to make DOS now rips us off to own Windows for a few years...

​@@TheDiWhyGuy You got new subscriber :D

Thanks so much !

Yeah bro I heard its really good do you know if it works in Linux?

Cheers 😁

Thanks so much mate fully 100% more of these to come 😁

@@TheDiWhyGuy thanks m8 ❤

Cheers brother

That's fair I was more trying to show how terminal works as a quick over view but as @rufuspilula247 said you can double click .exe files to run them, and you can install wine from software manager. no need to use the terminal. But sometimes its the only way to do things like change paging file size and it better for trouble shooting. So you don't have to use it but its good to know how good luck buddy thanks for watching.

Yah mate Linux Maté is mint as mate haha but seriously might try it on my Windows XP build in a video out soon, cheers!

That's awesome as. Its come along way in the last few years. Cool that you got some MP games working sounds like a good setup 😁

Ubuntu is awesome there are a lot of options for Linux distros just got to find the right one for you, I have heard good things about Ventoy I will have to try it out next time chees mate!

Juan Deni os saluda desde su trono lleno de pis y mierda. Salve Juan Deni, Rey de los excrementos.

Haha not sure why all I know is Tux the Linux 🐧 approves of this massage!

Well that's me best video views to date so yeah 😂 Are you going to buy me a SSD more RAM and a Windows key? because even a debloated Windows 11 light needs more than 2 GB of RAM and a HDD would never work as well as Linux and I have run out of Windows 7 keys so yeah no thanks Linux wins for this old girl, thanks for watching buddy!

@@TheDiWhyGuy idk if you need to buy keys, aren't these old computers already bundled with win 7 / 10? I agree, 4GB of ram is probably minimum after debloat.

This PC was bundled with Vista have you ever used Vista? Its trash and this PC is not compatible with XP the greatest OS ever crated so Linux is the best option for this build. If your interested in this free PC build in a NES shell you can watch the build video here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jq2FhrmCs9DLpn0.html cheers mate!

True that looks good as I'll check it out next time i got to make a USB bootable cheers bro!

Sounds like you need this forum www.reddit.com/r/linux_gaming/comments/18usu4l/world_of_tanks_on_linux_using_steam/ GamertechAU WoT works pretty well on Linux. If you're not using flatpak Steam, then games are relying on Mint's ancient LTS system dependencies which causes all sorts of problems with gaming. LTS distros are not for gaming. Two primary options are to swap to flatpak Steam which packages its own up to date dependencies, though can still have issues with the old Mint repos as the packages the flatpak system itself relies on will still be out of date, or you can swap to a non-LTS distro such as Fedora which keeps all the packages up to date by default.

your 100% right, XP is just the newest Windows my copy can run on sorry for not explaining better... I played it when it was new so your not the only old one haha

OTOH, Half-Life 2 *is* a Win XP game but he didn't put that on. And I'm old too. ;)

I found Half-Life2 the other day at the thrift shop but who ever donated it didn't release the steam key so I can't play it was so gutted...

@@TheDiWhyGuy Perhaps you have done so, or you don't want to do it, but last I knew you could enter information from your original _Half-Life_ boxed purchase into your Steam account, and it would unlock the game on Steam, which allows you to play a patched version that will run on a modern version of Windows or on Linux with support for resolutions other than 4:3.

It might be possible I never tried I perfer to use my Windows XP PC for old games anyways as it get full screen. This build is more for mame emulation it will run my arcade server nicely and fit well with the retro consoles that it houses as well i want one unit to compare console ports to arcade games will be a future video thanks for your advice!

So you going to buy me a windows key?

This os is supported until 2025, you missed the point of the video. Linux beats Windows hand down for this computer and runs all my old af games that don't work in 10 or 11 the only problem with Linux is user error so if you want to use it do your research!

I've been gaming on linux for 20 years and never been banned, maybe if you try play a game with a kernel level anticheat that doesn't work on linux anyways.

Lol this pc has 128 mb gpu its for emulation its just a bonus it can play HALF-LIFE not everyone cares about online games in fact online games suck ass they full of hackers, patches and 1 game would take up my whole hdd. Why you so mad bro I'm not the one that band you just dule boot windows if you want to play online you can use a windows 7 key on 10 just take a pic of a key on the side of a pc at the scracp wrecker or something easy peasy!

@@Totallynotmwa whats that got to do with the price of fish?

@@TheDiWhyGuy talking about the thumbnail lol

@@Totallynotmwa oh haha well This laptop is from 2007 and so is Windows Vista so by your logic it makes perfect sense 😆 why you defending Trust fund baby Bill Gates he literally stole MS-DOS from Gary Kildall. Gary Kildall had created an OS called CP/M. IBM was shopping for an OS for its PC, and struck a deal with Microsoft. Microsoft didn't actually had an OS when they made the deal, so Bill Gates paid Tim Patterson a CP/M engineer $75,000 to clone CP/M OS and renamed it MS-DOS dudes stole every good idea he ever had and sues small business that give anyone a free key... Go watch his TED talk form 2010 if you want to know what he is doing these days it much worse than you could imagine...

Not defending bill gates lol just saying some truth

@@Totallynotmwa each to their own thanks for watching mate
