hey!! 1 week ago ive felt inspired to downgrade to windows 7 and ill state my reasons why in a bit. i originally used windows 10 with r8p to make it look like 7 but ive quickly got bored of it. plus it had alot of glitches and the latest version isnt compatible with my pc for some reason. i DID look into the model of my pc wich its actually from 2014 apparently!!! wich makes sense i guess. so the reasons why!!! i got sick of how many dumb apps were pre installed to windows 10 that i cannot delete like their stupid AI shit and dumbass browsers and other things. always running in the background and pissing me off. the only things allowed to run in the background is my beautiful goregous customisation not some random useless app for bill gates to spy on me while i change my clothes. another reason is the fact i have to be signed in with my microsoft account just to sign in to my computer wich is dumb as shit?? like i get errors saying my pc is offline when i put in my password its so dumb... like its MY DEVICE that i paid for with my own money why are you locking me just because i have no wifi... breh. and sometimes i really do not have wifi because its weak some days or the internet service provider at has issues of something like that. i was so sick of it. internet in africa is nothing like how it is in canada ( its getting better though)
ANYWAY ANYWAY ANYWAY GETTING OFF TRACK. i followed 3 diffrent youtube tutorials because some were either too vauge or explained things too much because ive actually never ever installed a new operating system on real hardware before!! ive used virtual machines but thats all the experince i had. so i guess i kinda know what the intsallation looks like. i have a 16 gigabyte USB wich originally had random useless things from my old computer that i didnt need (it was just roblox screenshots cmon) anyway the ISO took like an hour to download because of my shitty internet i could finally start!!! i used a diffrent app the burn it onto my USB, and then i restarted my pc like 5 times because i forgot wich button puts it in BIOS mode because im stupid. then i put my USB on top of the boot list, restarted it, then i was basically done ..... i saw that goregous windows 2009 logo glowing at me .... i nearly cried because it was just so pretty. and by the way, this IS windows7 ultamite and i got the ISO on the internet archive since its not available from microsofts website anymore
a few more steps of the setup... basically the easiest part i didnt have to worry about this,, did this 1000 times with virtual machines.

the sound was really loud when it booted up and caramella was intrested...i mean its a good thing because i know the sound drivers are working!! i just needed to update the graphics drivers because it looks kinda weird likes this right now
this is how it looks after updating drivers and spending wayy too much time on it!!! its so beautiful... i also have all the classic games and aero glass works perfectly and those adorable widgets, i downloaded so much games to play and what you see right now isnt even all of them. i also got microsoft office 2003 and steam working too!! also for some reason my internet connection improved after downgrading wich is oddly great!! my brother said the same happened to him since he used to use windows 11 but downgraded to 10 and his wifi improved on his computer so thats odd lol. also i kept getting errors saying my computer is a counterfit so i turned of windows update and now that message does not appear anymore and it says that windows activation isnt available so thats very weird.. im not activating windows ever because i dont care i have evrey feature anyway so why would i activate. as long as bill gates doesent come knocking on my door to murder me in real life then im just not gonna do it
anyway ill be getting all my music, a few more games, an art program for when i get a drawing tablet, and then i think ill be all set!!! and dont worry for my saftey, i didnt put anything sensitive on this computer at all and i do have an ipad and iphone with my personal stuff on it so dont worry!!! they are both updated with the latest version of IOS and should be protected. i only use my computers for games, coding and music stuff and theres nothing wrong with that!!! as long as theres no personal information involed then evreything should be all good since its so old and unsupported. thats all i wanted to talk about today, untill next time!
