history of windows operating system misrosoft

Microsoft Windows or better known as Windows is a family of personal computer operating systems developed by Microsoft that uses a graphical user interface (graphical user interface).The Windows operating system has evolved from the MS-DOS, an operating system based on text mode and command-line. The first version of Windows, Windows Graphic Environment 1.0 was first introduced on 10 November 1983, but only out of the market in November 1985 designed to meet the needs of the computer to display a picture. Windows 1.0 is a software to 16-bit (not an operating system) running on top of MS-DOS (and some variants of MS-DOS), so he will not be able to run without the operating system DOS. Version 2.x, 3.x versions are the same. Some recent versions of Windows (starting from version 4.0 and Windows NT 3.1) is an independent operating system that no longer relies on the operating system MS-DOS. Microsoft Windows and can be developed and can be controlled using the operating system up to 90%.
Windows 1.0
 The first version of Microsoft Windows, called Windows 1.0, released on 20 November 1985. This version has a lot of shortcomings in some functionality, so it is less popular in the market. At first Windows version 1.0 is going to called the Interface Manager, but Rowland Hanson, head of marketing at Microsoft Corporation, Microsoft officials assured that the name "Windows" will be "luring" consumers. Windows 1.0 is not a complete operating system, but only extending the capabilities of MS-DOS with the addition of a graphical interface. In addition, Windows 1.0 also has the same problems and weaknesses are owned by MS-DOS.
Windows 2.xWindows version 2 came out on December 9, 1987, and became a little more popular than its predecessor. Most gained in popularity because of its proximity to graphical applications made by Microsoft, Microsoft Excel for Windows and Microsoft Word for Windows. Windows applications can be run from the MS-DOS, and then enter Windows to conduct its operations, and it will come out by itself when the application is closed.Microsoft Windows eventually obtained a significant improvement when Aldus PageMaker appeared in versions for Windows, which previously could only run on the Macintosh. Some computer experts noted historians as the emergence of a significant application behavior than by Microsoft as an early success of Microsoft Windows.Windows version 2.0x using real-mode memory model, which is only able to access up to 1 megabyte of memory. In such a configuration, Windows can run multitasking applications other sort of DESQview, which runs in protected mode offered by Intel 80286.Windows 2.1xFurthermore, two new versions were released, the Windows/286 Windows/386 2.1 and 2.1. As with previous versions of Windows, Windows/286 using real-mode memory model, but it is the first version to support the High Memory Area (HMA). Windows/386 2.1 even have the kernel running in protected mode with emulation Expanded Memory Specification (EMS) standard Lotus-Intel-Microsoft (LIM), the predecessor specification Extended Memory Specification (XMS), and eventually change the topology of IBM PC computing inside. All Windows and DOS-based applications when it is running in real mode, running over the protected mode kernel by using Virtual 8086 mode, which is a new feature that is owned by Intel 80386.windows 3.0
Windows 3.0 can run in three modes, namely the real mode, the default mode, and 386 Enhanced mode, and is compatible with the Intel family of processors from Intel 8086/8088, 80286, to 80386.
Windows 3.0 will attempt to detect which mode to use, although the user can force the Windows work in a certain mode by using certain switches when running• win / r: force Windows to run in real mode• Win / s: force Windows to run in standard mode• Win / 3: force Windows to run in 386 Enhanced mode.Version 3.0 is also the first version of Windows that is running in protected mode, although the 386 enhanced mode kernel was an enhanced version of the kernel from inside the protected mode kernel Windows/386.Due to the backward compatibility feature, Windows 3.0 applications must be compiled using 16-bit environment, so that did not use the ability of the Intel 80386 microprocessor, which is actually a 32-bit processor.OS / 2Microsoft and IBM worked together to develop a successor to the DOS operating system, called the IBM OS / 2. OS / 2 can use all the capabilities offered by microprocessor Intel 80286 and can access up to 16 megabytes of memory. OS / 2 1.0 was released in 1987, which features the swapping and multitasking, in addition to allowing MS-DOS applications to run on it.In the early 1990s, the relationship between Microsoft and IBM were stretched due to the appearance of a conflict. This is because they work together in developing a personal computer operating systems respectively (IBM with OS / 2 and Microsoft with its Windows), both have access to the code of each operating system. Microsoft requires the further development of the Windows operating system made, while IBM has a desire that all his future work should be made based on the operating system OS / 2. In an attempt to end this conflict, IBM and Microsoft agreed that IBM would develop the IBM OS / 2 version 2.0, to replace OS / 2 version 1.3 and Windows 3.0, while Microsoft had to develop a new operating system, OS / 2 version 3.0, which will then replace the OS / 2 version 2.0. This Agreement does not last too long, so the relationship was terminated IBM and Microsoft. IBM eventually continue the development of OS / 2, while Microsoft renames operating system OS / 2 version 3.0 (not yet released) to Windows NT.WINDOWS 3.1Microsoft developed Windows 3.1, which offered some minor improvement to Windows 3.0 (as well as the ability to display the Fonts TrueType fonts, developed jointly with Apple), and there is also one in which many of the bug fixes and support for multimedia. Version 3.1 also removes support for real mode, so it only runs on a protected mode which only the Intel 80286 microprocessor or higher.
WINDOWS NT
The main architect of Windows NT was Dave Cutler, who was one of the leaders of the VMS operating system architect at the company Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC), which was later purchased by Compaq is now part of Hewlett-Packard. Support device driver for Windows NT also lacking so much because it is developed for Windows NT driver is considered complicated by some developers, in addition to Windows NT also has superiority in its hardware abstraction model. That made Windows NT perfect choice for server market share local network (LAN), which in 1993 is experiencing a massive boom, along with the commodity network in the office has increased dramatically. Features of the Windows NT network offers multiple connectivity options and a broad network of course also an efficient NTFS file system.Windows NT was the first Windows operating system that are created using a hybrid kernel, after the previous versions only using monolithic kernel alone.windows 95
on August 24, 1995.
Microsoft has two advantages of this launch:1) it is impossible for consumers to run Windows 95 on a DOS operating system made by Microsoft are not much cheaper2) although traces of DOS were never completely removed from the system, even the self-adhesive versions of the DOS version to be loaded as part of the boot process, Windows 95 running on its own in the 386 Enhanced mode, using virtual memory and memory addressing model of flat 32-bit. Features that make Win32 applications to address virtual RAM up to 2 gigabytes (2 gigabytes with the rest reserved for the operating system). USB support in Windows 98 was also much better than its predecessor.Before you replace it with a new version of Windows, Microsoft released Windows 95 in five different versions, namely as follows:• Windows 95 - the actual release of Windows 95• Windows 95 A - included Windows 95 Updates Original Service Release 1 (OSR1) is entered directly to the installation.• Windows 95 B - includes some other major updates, such as FAT32 file system, and Internet Explorer 3.0. This version is also known as Windows 95 OSR2, or many people in Indonesia called as Windows 97.• Windows 95 B USB - Windows 95 or Windows 95 OSR2.1 is a version that offers support for hardware-based bus Universal Serial Bus / USB.• Windows 95 C - or Windows 95 OSR2.5 includes all the above features, plus Internet Explorer 4.0. This version is the most recent version of the series released Windows 95.WINDOWS NT 4.0NT 4.0 has an interface similar to Windows 95, but it uses the same kernel with Windows NT, making it more stable. Indeed, there is an additional patch available for Windows NT 3.51 NT 3.51 that can make so much like NT 4.0, but it is not very stable and has a lot of bugs.Windows NT 4.0 comes in four versions:• Windows NT 4.0 Workstation• Windows NT 4.0 Server• Windows NT 4.0 Server, Enterprise Edition (which includes support for clustering and up to 8-way SMP)• Windows NT 4.0 Terminal Server
WINDOWS 98
On June 25, 1998, Microsoft released a new Windows operating system, known as Windows 98. Windows 98 is considered a minor revision to Windows 95, but it is generally viewed much more stable and reliable than its predecessor, Windows 95. Windows 98 includes many driversnew hardware and support the FAT32 file system that better allow partitions to have a capacity larger than 2 gigabytes, a restriction contained in the Windows 95 and USB support in Windows 98 was also much better than its predecessor.In 1999, Microsoft released Windows 98 Second Edition, a release which offers much improved over previous versions. Internet Connection Sharing, which is a form of Network Address Translation, which allows multiple machines in a local network in order to use a single Internet connection line together also introduced in this version. Many minor problems in Windows that long has been corrected, which makes Windows 98 by many people as a version of Windows 9x the most stable among all the other versions of Windows 9x.
WINDOWS 2000on February 17, 2000, a version of which was previously known as Windows NT 5.0 or "NT 5.0". Windows 2000 version is aimed at two market share, the market share of the workstation and server market share.Among the features of the Windows 2000 Active Directory is the most significant, a network model replacement for the NT domain network, which uses technology which is the industry standard, such as Domain Name System (DNS), Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) and Kerberos for connect the machine to a sharing.Windows 2000 is available in six editions, namely:• Windows 2000 Professional• Windows 2000 Server• Windows 2000 Advanced Server• Windows 2000 Datacenter Server• Windows 2000 Advanced Server Limited Edition• Windows 2000 Datacenter Server Limited EditionWindows 2000 is available in six editions, namely:- Windows 2000 Server- Windows 2000 Advanced Server- Windows 2000 Datacenter Server- Windows 2000 Advanced Server Limited Edition-Windows 2000 Datacenter Server Limited Edition
WINDOWS ME
In September 2000, Microsoft introduced Windows Millennium Edition. This updated version of Windows 98 with the support of multimedia and the Internet better. This version also includes the "System Restore," which allows its users to restore the system to a known point fine, when the operating system fails. The features contained in Windows Me (such as Internet Explorer 5.5, Windows Media Player 7.0, and Microsoft DirectX 7.1) can even be obtained for free from the Windows Update site, except for System Restore. As a result, Windows Me was not considered to be an operating system that is unique among his brothers of the family of Windows 9x, Windows 95 and Windows 98. Windows Me was also criticized because of the problem of stability, as well as support for MS-DOS running in real mode. People even called Windows Me as Windows Mistake Edition.
WINDOWS XP

 
In 2001, Microsoft introduced Windows XP (which has codenamed "Whistler" during development. Finally, after releasing several versions of Windows based on Windows 9x and NT, Microsoft managed to unify the two series products. Windows XP using the Windows NT 5.1 kernel, making Windows NT kernel known for its stability into the home consumer market, to replace Windows 9x-based products that have been aging 16/32-bit.• Windows XP Home Edition, which is aimed at the home-based desktops and laptops.• Windows XP Home Edition N, as usual Home Edition, but do not have Windows Media Player, due to EU regulations did not allow it.• Windows XP Professional, which is aimed at power users and business people.• Windows XP Professional N, the same as the Professional Edition, but do not have Windows Media Player, due to EU regulations do not allow it.• Windows XP Media Center Edition (MCE), released in November 2002, is a Windows XP Home Edition is intended for dektop and laptop with an emphasis on home entertainment.- Windows XP Media Center Edition 2003- Windows XP Media Center Edition 2004- Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005, which was released on October 12, 2004. 

WINDOWS VISTA
After achieving great kesukesan with Windows XP, Microsoft does not necessarily just stop developing Windows.
The latest version of Windows, called Windows Vista, released on 30 November 2006 for the business for the home user while released on January 30, 2007. Windows Vista was launched in order to have a more robust security than previous versions, by introducing a limited user mode, which is called User Account Control (UAC), to replace the philosophy of "administrator-by-default" that apply to Windows XP . Windows Vista also introduces a feature chart a much more "alluring", which is called Windows Aero GUI, new applications (such as Windows Calendar, Windows DVD Maker and a few new games including Chess Titans, Mahjong, and Purble Place. Addition, Windows Vista also offers a version of Microsoft Internet Explorer more secure, as well as a new version of Windows Media Player (version 11).
WINDOWS 7
Windows 7 (formerly encoded Blackcomb or Vienna) is the latest version of Microsoft Windows that replaces Windows Vista. Windows NT has a kernel 6.1. Microsoft announced the development of Windows 7 will run in three years. The client version of Windows 7 was released in 32-bit and 64-bit version of the server though (which replaces the Windows Server 2008) was released only in 64-bit version, called Windows Server 2008 R2. Computerwill tell if there is a change to the computer. Windows 7 launched on October 22, 2009. Each user will have 3 layers of protection if there is a request to download a file from an unknown. Windows 7 is designed with new features and improved performance of Windows Vista.Hardware specificationsMicrosoft has published the minimum hardware specifications for Windows 7.
