Windows 3.1x (codenamed Janus) is a series of 16-bit operating systems produced by Microsoft for use on personal computers. The series began with Windows 3.1, which was first sold during April 1992 as a successor to Windows 3.0. Subsequent versions were released between 1992 and 1994 until the series was superseded by Windows 95. During its lifespan, Windows 3.1 introduced several enhancements to the still MS-DOS-based platform, including improved system stability, expanded support for multimedia, TrueType fonts, and workgroup networking.
Windows 3.1 was originally released on April 6, 1992; official support for Windows 3.1 ended on December 31, 2001, and OEM licensing for Windows for Workgroups 3.11 on embedded systems continued to be available until November 1, 2008.
Windows 3.1 (originally codenamed Janus), released on April 6, 1992, introduced a TrueType font system (and a set of highly legible fonts), which effectively made Windows a viable desktop publishing platform for the first time. Similar functionality was available for Windows 3.0 through Adobe Type Manager (ATM) font system from Adobe.

If you havn't installed DOS and are using a boot disk like me,you could try extracting the files from DOS 6.22 with winimage or something similar and placing these three files: COMMAND.COM,IO.SYS and MSDOS.sys to the root of the hard drive the windows install is on. Then type "win" when the hard drive is hooked back up. FOR THIS METHOD YOU WILL NEED: 1.A USB OR IDE FLOPPY DRIVE WITH A BLANK FLOPPY DISK IN IT HOOKED UP TO A PC CONNECTED TO THE INTERNET TO DOWNLOAD AND MAKE A WINDOWS 98SE BOOTABLE FLOPPY DISK TO LOAD DVD/CD DRIVERS 2. WINDOWS 3.1 ISO IMAGE (GOOGLE IS YOUR FRIEND) BURNED TO CD (BURNED MINE USING IMGBURN) 3.AN IDE/ATA HARD DRIVE UNDER 2GB 4.A DOS 5 BOOTABLE FLOPPY DISK OR ISO CD (TO GET WINDOWS 3.1 TO BOOT FIRST TIME) 5.SET THE TARGET COMPUTER'S BIOS BOOT ORDER TO 1.FLOPPY ...
Installing Windows 3.1 on a Samsung Android tablet using the FreeBox version of DOSBox from Fishstix. I also try out the classic DOS word processor WordPerfect 5.1.

Every Windows operating system release from Windows 3.1 to Windows 8 has shipped with a startup sound. Hearing the chimes assures you that your computer is working and starting up properly. With the release of Windows 10, the startup music is no more. In memoriam of the Windows startup sounds, we made a tribute video that shows the evolution of Windows throughout the years from Windows 3.1 to Windows 8.1 in the video above. http://www.mashable.com LIKE us on FACEBOOK: http://facebook.com/mashable.video FOLLOW us on TWITTER: http://twitter.com/mashablevideo FOLLOW us on TUMBLR: http://mashable.tumblr.com FOLLOW our INSTAGRAM: http://instagram.com/mashable JOIN our circle on GOOGLE PLUS: http://plus.google.com/+Mashable Subscribe!: http://bit.ly/1ko5eNd Mashable is the leading independen...
This is how the magic is made. This video tutorial shows how one might theoretically create and share YouTube videos, using Windows 3.11. That being said, it's a total farce. Trickery, I tell you! A product of video editing, and too much free time. You can get Microsoft Video Editor from here: http://www.win31.de/esoft.htm It's part of 'Video for Windows', which you'll find a link for, halfway down the page.
Honey, he doesn’t love you.
Honey, he doesn’t love you.
Can’t you see the resentment on his face,
the subtle abuse in his tone?
Can’t you hear the truth behind the jokes
when he says he’d rather be alone?
Honey, pookie, poodle, he doesn’t love you.
Sometimes once is all it takes.
Your mother and Jesus hate you.
But me, I haven’t changed.
Maybe you should give me a call.
Give me a call.
I’m still the same old guy you knew in school,
the oldest 18 and so,
so tired of life.
And so, so tired of life.
Your life is ugly and ruthless.
Your mother and Jesus hate you.
But me, I still like you kind of
so why won’t you give me a call?
So I walked through the trees you lined your house with
and I thought about that guy you’re going out with.
And I thought I’d be useful for a change,
so I picked up a rake,
but I couldn’t figure out what to do with it.
So I walked around the gardens in a sorry state
and I looked around the table when I came in late
and I saw all the food piled on my plate
so I picked up my drink,
but I couldn’t figure out where to throw it first.
Oh, give me a call.
I’m still the same old guy you knew in school,
the oldest 18 and so so,
so tired of life when I kiss you,
