Blockland.

[Arf]

I only know two things from my comp.
It is a Intel Celeron 62,0 MB RAM And I think I have no Video Cards.
Anyway, I can play SRB2. But I don't think I can play blockland.

If you don't have any video card, then your monitor would be blank.

Funny.. I'm supposed to have a crappy computer but Blockland runs just fine for me.

And BIOS won't start.

 

[Shadow Hog]

Nah, BIOSes tend to not need video cards.

And how can they write messages in the screen?

 

[Arf]

Sorry, I forgot to say It hadn't got any 3D Video Card.
anyway, I don't know too much about all this stuff.

And how can they write messages in the screen?

Motherboards are perfectly capable of writing minor things to the screen like BIOSes. Video cards weren't the big thing until around Quake, but computers were displaying things just fine prior to that.

The texts are saved directly in VRAM (at direction B800:0000 in this case).

Which can also just be plain RAM if you lack VRAM. Not advised for games, admittedly, but enough to run the BIOS/OS.

Why are we even really arguing this, anyway?

Windows has changed alot since those.

 

[Sik]

I know that MS-DOS Executive isn't Windows 1.0, that is a copy for demostrate what was Windows... But wasn't Windows 1.0 in black and white pure?

 

[Omega the Hedgehog]

Yep.

Heh, you should see what pictures and buildings the players over at OCR have made.
