This took me a long time to edit and film. Hope you enjoy the video!

"hey can I borrow your computer" "oh sure, which operating system" "what?" _"WHICH OPERATING SYSTEM???"_

14:26 It made me laugh when you said WELCOME in a chimpmunk voice

1:00 “Never Give You Virtual Machine More Than 100 Gb” Too Late I Gave Mine Over 1 Tb

You have done hell to that VM, but you are the greatest “pc person” of all time. Well done.

I miss so much Aero Glass, I really wish MS just give us an option to activate it some day again. I like how the W10 is now but I also love transparency, and I wish I didn't had to modify the entire system just to have that.

I did that on a real pc, all os worked :)) + 10 linux distros added, i think i've done the world record!

I used to watch this during lunchtime at school every day. Thanks, Trigr!

Tigerzolt: says that you shouldn’t put over 100 gb Also him: puts 160 go

Your meant to put the older operating systems first then the newer ones. 25:04 Windows XP does support dual booting as I've seen somebody run Windows 2000 and XP together. Only 9x systems require MS-DOS by the way.

So if you are confused about the Partition "System Reserved" When you did a Clean Install of Windows, The partition size varies on different Operating Systems. Windows 7 will have 100MB, Windows 8/8.1 will have 350MB, and Windows 10 will have a 500MB. It was used for BitLocker Drive Encryption, Boot Configuration, and Boot Manager Code.

If you go in this order (XP, Vista, 7, 8.1 and 10) you won't have a problem with the multiboot. XP must be installed first, and must be as the prime boot device. In this way, Vista pairs with XP, solidifying multiboot. If you were to remove the assigned letter to the WindowsXP partition in Windows Vista, Vista won't let you do it because it would prompt you a message that such partition is the main boot device, but it would let you to remove the others.

Fun fact: I actually dualbooted Windows 7 w Windows 7. The way I did that is just chose my new partition during installation. I also wanted to dualboot w Windows xp, but it doesn't go through the setup process at all on Windows 7 but now I know how to do it

System reserved is for when installing Windows your C drive can be erased and everything while the system reserved holds the important files needed to boot into windows and install it.

You need sound drivers and several other drivers with XP. it didn't come with drivers. Later O.S.'s automatically installed the needed drivers.

more info: every operating system you install, it will make and overwrite the "System Reserved" partition you were wondering about, and that partition has the boot manager stored inside it, which is what contains the boot menu, so it is different every time it overwrites the system reserved partition

I got this video on my recommendation after 2 years , cool video 🙃👍

wow the windows 7 boot menu so much nostalgia cuz 10 years ago i once had a pc with windows 7 and windows xp installed on them and in 2016 i had a pc with windows 10 and windows 8.1 and i was kinda surprised about the boot menu back then and even 5 years later now i forgot it and this video reminded me of it great days.

Loads of work, I apriciate it.

6:33 I surprisingly agree. Well, I used 8.1 since the day it was released and all the way up until like 2018(?) And I also found some appreciation for Vista in late 2021, I put backgrounds from Vista everywhere This is why I kinda feel cozy when I use them

This man is truly a lengend

2:55 bruh when you realise that that’s the speed of your computer

*This video should also be recommended just like the other video*

i love how happy you were when you got the operating systems working was gonna do this (except with like 10 to 20 operating systems lmao) except my 500 gig drive died so i need to use that 1 tb drive for my everything 😅

This already sounds good

Nice hard work bro🤗

If I would do a Multiboot of those Windows Versions, I would always start installing the oldest Version.

love ypur operating system vids

I liked the old intro where he's searching "Quinta Booting" and "5 Booting" on KZfaq. Sadly, it's now been removed :(

damn nice video you just got a new sub

I did not know about the Guest Additions. My work around was to enable Remote Desktop and that gave me full screen when I remote in so I now know 2 ways. 😉

I have two empty partitions on my h.d. in which I would like to install Windows Vista & XP, but I can't find a good iso.

I did this on a real PC: XP, Vista, 7, and 8 (8.0 not 8.1) and I found it ran very well.

You should have installed the earliest one first, then higher, then higher, and so on. I multibooted windows 2000, xp, longhorn (yes, I have longhorn's iso), Vista, 7, 8, 8.1 and 10. I am so happy I got this idea and made an octaboot machine. Thanx bro 😊😀😉❤️

Fun fact for @TrigrZolt, the Visita/7 boot menu was the old boot manager display which was not the main one since windows 8x came out. You can still turn on the old boot manager, even if Visita/7 isn't installed

Puberty has got this man.

My god. you just took a big risk by multibooting 5 Windows operating systems, and you pulled it off!

I myself have Windows 8.1, Windows 10, and Windows 11 on my laptop {ON actual hardware}, I also wanted to quad-boot windows XP on top of that, but then I stumbled across this vid. Thank God I watched it, or else I would have been completely screwed

my friend you have earned a S U B for this feat

Cool video

hello iv tryed that but when it comes to start it is not showing the dots on windows 10 start up

I can’t seem to find a vista iso anywhere. Any recommendations?

You truly are a legend, also, can you provide the VHD/VMDK/VDI?

can you pls post windows 7 set up file becuase i tested all and none of them work.

Do you know if it is possible to have both MS-DOS and Windows Vista on the same dual-boot or multi-boot? I already know that you can have both MS-DOS and Windows XP on the same dual-/multi-boot, and that you can have both Windows XP and Windows Vista on the same dual-/multi-boot, but I have doubts whether MS-DOS and Windows Vista on the same device is possible or not. I see that the font on the text of the type of boot, as in this video, is very different compared to the one with the so-called DOS font, where I have seen that you can have MS-DOS as one of the alternatives, in addition to Windows such as WXP.

If I were doing this I'd start with XP and work my way up to 10, because the bootloaders could recognized the older OSes and add them to the boot list.

I got my little brother’s old laptop and i managed to multi boot 12 Windows operating systems (and a few linux distros too). Vista, 7, 8, 8.1, 10, WS2008, WS2008R2, WS2012, WS2012R2, WS2016, WS2019 and POSReady 7. And remember, its real hardware ;)

Boot into the windows 7/vista installation disc and use repair your computer/windows whatever you want to boot into/startup repair and then restart your pc

Certified the best pc man

OP BRO

Bro, be a man and use quinta boot on real hardware. I have 5 different hard drives each with a different os. I have no idea why, but I do.

TrigrZolt be like: My goals are beyond your understanding

Hey whenever you install a new os it puts it as your default os and if you just go to msconfig and set windows 10 as your deafult os it could have worked

what is the first app you use to install windows 10

I haven't actually watched this yet, but I want to quad-boot 7, Vista, XP and 2000 on a Socket 478 system I have which has 2 early SATA channels as well as the usual PATA/"IDE"). The plan is to have 7 on a 120GB SSD (SATA obviously) and Vista on a 160GB SATA HDD. Then XP, 2000 and data on a triple-partitioned 500GB PATA HDD, and PATA optical drives etc. I'll watch this, but can anyone help me as it is a bit different...?

When you unstall Windows 10, you loose your archives and your account?

"Don't ever give your virtual machine half your ram." I have 128 GB. XD

Nc Infos, Maam thanks

I'm gonna try to attempt this with XP first on real hardware. 1. You're meant to install XP first because XP was the last version to have NTLDR and Vista and up uses Boot Manager. 2. The boot menu in XP, Vista and 7, and 8.1 and 10 are all different. It depends if you also have fast startup because that screws up the bootmenu sometimes.

This man has grown up after 4nearly 5 years

I’m doing 10, 7 and vista. Might add 8.1. Also you should try adding 2000, and NT4.0 and NT3.1 Because they are NT based. Not DOS based

Is Windows XP Installed I did not see the windows xp in the boot menu and there was a operating system call earlier version of Windows.

You can do it down to Windows NT 4.0, bcuz NT 3.51 has BSODs on multiboot

0:30 What theme programs did you use for your main pc?

I mutibooted windows 10 8.1 8.0 7 and vista i was going to add xp too but the partitions didnt create and were giving me a error :(

for getting to ME and prior you can create a floppy drive in Virtualbox, download MS DOS .iso and bam

Could you make a list of links to the OS ISOs used in this video, as well as a link to the third-party partition app download. I would like to try this on my own VM. PS, This is a really good video!

IMA octaboot windows on hyper v were you can't go on windows versions with ms dos included if you want to do inputs and the oldest working os is windows 2000

but i just triple-booted a DVD with my live cd (LiveCDWin10) that took 2.5GB of space on my DVD-R

So you need a beast pc to handle all that os at once?? Idk much about virtual machines... So i guess all those os needs much resources to run

After installing XP to get in boot loader you must to press F8 key only one time, but before Windows XP logo appears

The proper solution to make more than 3 partitions in windows is by using a gpt partition scheme

This inspired me to do this on actual hardware. I actually did it! But not windows XP it just shows the same error over and over. I tried to install the Windows embedded POSReady 2009 but yea that didn’t work.I eventually just installed XP on windows 10 virtual machine

nice music

Where did you get the ISOs?

23:03 excited

2:57 now you know how my pc feels

bsod on windows xp 64 edition install is because you need to set any version of windows x64 in settings of virtual machine

+TrigrZolt wipe the HD and install according to release date(XP, Vista, 7, 8, 10)

Um... I say the third-party software will not work that way but if you download it on your PC/Laptop And the drag it to the VM I think it should work because in by VM VirtalBox I had Windows XP + Internet does not work like in your VM So i drag and drop files for downloading after downloaded on my Laptop.

i am gonna use windows 8.1 for the first time on my new computer now!

you hafe download win xp and win xp comes with ms dos so you can ho way back to win 3 so can you maby make a part 2???? plz!!!

How tf did you dual boot anything with windows xp, xp NEEDS an IDE SATA drive, whereas windows 10 uses AHCI. Could you elaborate cause I don’t want to search the whole vid O.O

why you are reinstalling windows 10 for windows ME? you can boot into windows 10 setup and then you can click "Repair Your Computer" after that you will see an option to exit and continue to windows 10.

I'm pretty sure at the beginning of the video you should have formatted the VM drive to (GTP) instead of (MBR)

me watching epic windows booting videos to erase the time in 2021

Where Did you get the ISO files from?

Can you do this but with windows 11?

why not just install grub if you had bootloader issues?

Wouldn't that be nice? I'd like to do that sometime, just to return to old memories.

Yh i've read about these issues when trying to dual boot Win10 and XP, for some reason Win10's boot menu overwrites all of them. And now that you installed 10 first and Xp last you get this issue where the boot menu just bricks and no longer works. That's why on almost every article on trying to boot Windows 10 and XP it says you would need to install XP first AND ONLY THEN Win10. i'm actually suprised this would brick the boot menu i expected a diffrent thing like windows 10 or xp just bugging the frick out but not the damn boot menu just bricking. And like you said it would take way to long for you to install ME, 98, 95 etc. Because Windows XP was the first time they made an operating system running on they're NT software for public consumer use. before xp it all ran on MS-DOS As Kernel.

Thank you so much for that video. ___First: I have an old laptop (mabye from 2014) with Windows 7 and wated to dual boot it with windows 10 without success. also, many partitions (like the error you've got) was a problem for me. I've found MiniTool partition wizard - but i think your's way, better. ___Second: This video gave me an idea to triple boot to: XP, 7, 10 - why 10 - new (true now there is 11) 7 - "Ultimate" - beacuse it's the best (beacuse Vista it's like a step from winXP but still with few problems... why not just go up to Win7 that works a lot better than Visa with a kind of a similar environment) XP - SP3 - beause it's the last OS that still gives you a full ability when trying old games especially DOS (Like: Dangerous Dave) - so no need to go to Win95 or anything like that. somtimes "DOS-BOX" or "VirtualDOS" give me trouble and also i don't tink that "Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun" will work well on Win10 so WinXP is the right choice i think ___Third: I am wondering for another boot like: XP, 7, 10 and Android 7 If this thing even possible? (so 4 partitions for 4 OS's and another partition to be used for files through all of OS's - at the same time) Just an idea ___Fourth: You used a virtual machine to demonstrate the multipile boot don't see a reason it won't work on actual PC\Laptop ___Fifth: I am guessin you had problems on WinXP (like sound and stuff) because maybe the OS not comes with drivers that need to manually being installed (depanding on PC version) ___6th: One thing i still don't undersand if to do this you need: inside Computer management: 1. MBR or GPT or dynamic disk? 2. "Primary" or "Secondary" partition? 3. "Active"? 4. other stuff.... Boot: 1. To do this while in BIOS, UEFI or BIOS+UEFI? ______________________________________________ What do you think about what i wrote? Hopefully i will be enlightened This video gives me hopes and i will try this multi-boot myself anyway, thank you, TrigrZolt Best :)

I currently am Quinta booting, but between 7, 8.1, and 10, and 2 Linux distros. I can't use XP though, because it can't handle the gpt partition table and I don't feel like erasing my hard drive

Why couldnt you just go in msconfig and set windows 10 to default

Tip for Windows XP drivers, is that there are drivers for everything, but I’m pretty sure windows xp only supports the outdated drivers, thus why it might not work

maybe watch tutorials on how to install ms dos on virtual box and then when you do, you can make a part 2!

im pretty sure the channel died but still, in the future you can keep booting new windows. But instead of doing the dos/9.x windows, you can do the other NT based windows (2000 and all the other NT workstations), im not sure if it would work but worth a shot.

am i stupid or does 8.1 have tiles

My Windows 7 VM Froze and i have to reset evrething starting to Windows 10 Finishing of with Windows XP

The reason why Windows XP the sound drivers and the internet drives wasnt working, beacause you have to install those drives using a cd or dvd..
