Can confirm this is the case here - the error message is complaining that the entry point for EncodePointer could not be found, and EncodePointer was first introduced in SP2
Re: 1:30 The U-Series was actually sold in the US! The Japanese models were the U50 (with a Celeron) and U70P (with a Pentium M and Windows XP Pro). The latter model was sold as the U750P in the US, but probably not as many surviving examples as the U50/70 Japanese models.
I remember this one to be by far the least quirky and the most solid among UMPCs. Not so practical for real world uses, none of UMPCs were, but the perfection shows in the briefness of this video. It's exactly what it looks like, and there's no special care needed. Most others has creaks and flexes and rooms for tweaks.
it might be possible to get it to display stuff with english if all the language packs for XP can still be found as for the browser it could be because the version of windows is sp1 or sp2
2000s Sony was nice, some stupid stuff like the CD rootkits (in defense of the Memory Stick: SD wasn't the only competitor but also CompactFlash/Microdrive, MMC, SmartMedia and xD and some digital cameras from the 2000s also had some proprietary USB connectors while Sony was using mini-USB "B" and/or i.Link (4-pin FireWire)), but they did a bunch of quirky things like their Qualia product line (the 016 was a tiny digital camera in 2003 around that time first mobile phones with cameras appeared, the Siemens S55 seemed to be one of the first but its camera wasn't integrated, it was externally connected via the charging/data port), their NW-A3000 walkman was one of the first with an OLED screen in 2006 and the XEL-1 in 2008 the world's first OLED TV, just 11" small with 960x540 (but that's equal to a 22" screen with 1920x1080.

1:45 The New Bliss wallpaper was included with the downloadable Royal Theme as used in Media Center by default but for normal XP. The MCE used a modified Bliss wallpaper called Energy Bliss as dafault however. (I was a Bliss geek back then as I was building my XP version with my own Bliss wallpaper because, of couse, I did)
Bro, I am always worried I mistype and don't find your channel. MKB HD changed his channel name to his name ... which I would also butcher if trying to spell. Kenya change your channel to something simple? :D
Hello Psivewri, love your content. Im also obsessed with older hardware, Im currently enjoying vintage gaming from the 98 and xp era ! My dad gave me his Old Mecer M288+ laptop from back in the day, but sadly it needs a keyboard. Hopefully you can maybe see if there is one on your side, greetings from South Africa. The ribbon cable ripped and not sure if you can repair a ribbon cable?
That thing reminds me of my buddy's old Cowon R7 PMP after I messed something up on it and it crashed to the windows CE desktop. You could run so much more stuff on it after that but still no internet. This thing should have run a mobile OS but given it was 2004 I don't know what else they could have done.
i haee sony vaio to, but its laptop with windows vista x86, and im unable to install SP1 (Maybe its beacouse in BIOS is activated secure boot. But it have dead CMOS battery, and i cant change it :( )
Very nicely build and alot of IO for the size. Japanese only meant business only. If they had added more gamery controls on the outside they would have created a PSP that runs Windows :)
new bliss was the version of bliss for Windows XP Media Centre Edition (which is the version of Windows XP installed on there because it uses the Royale theme instead of Luna)
The New Bliss wallpaper was included with the downloadable Royal Theme for normal XP, but it's not the default wallpaper of MCE, as it used a modified Bliss wallpaper called Energy Bliss.
@@TommyCrosby oo you're absolutely right - it's been years since I've seen either of them so I mistook it for Energy Bliss. A quick google says Microsoft stole New Bliss from a Deviant Art artist without permission!
New Bliss was most likely on there by default. It's part of the Luna Royale theme that came with XP Media Center Edition. If I saw it right, it's also installed and currently set.

Hey Psivewri try to buy some thinkpad t420 with some i5 or i7 not the i3 and the nvidia nvs4200 and if you buy some t420 with gpu you need 90 w charger or more because the gpu runs on 3 w with 65w charger i have t420 with this specs: i7 2620m nvidia nvs 4200 1gb vram ddr3 8gb ram ddr3 4+4 1333 mhz and 128 gb ssd with win 11 pro all on 90 w charger all of this for 2600 kč / 43 usd and i live in czech :D
I remember reading about these in an article from Engadget back in the day. I really wanted one, but it was only sold in Japan. I forgot it existed until today lol
Not bad at all, seems like a nice little unit if only it wasn't a Japan exclusive. The only question is, was there a market for pocket sized XP computers in 2004?
Well Psivewri, i just wanted to say thank you, thank you for making it into my childhood. Even though those gold days wont be back, ill never forget you and i still watch u till this day ❤❤
The Vaio micro devices were meant to be used with the optional Vaio port expansion hub so you could plug in more than one USB device at a time. There were a whole line of USB peripherals designed to work with these machines including USB mice and keyboards.
Once again thanks for tuning into my videos. I had a lot of fun playing around with this device 😊
First :D
W
I still have an acer aspire d255e
The og steamdeck
A celeron 😯 kinda makes sense for a tiny pc
Most late XP programs won't work if you don't install Service Pack 2 or 3... This only comes with SP1.
Can confirm this is the case here - the error message is complaining that the entry point for EncodePointer could not be found, and EncodePointer was first introduced in SP2
probably he didn't update it for preservation green loading bar of XP Home pre-SP2 ;-)
It took me almost 10 YEARS to finally know that the Windows "feature upgrades" were already exist far before Windows 10. Thanks for the info
also you would need sse2 for a lot of them but thankfully the celeron m supports it
Darn, I forgot Service Packs were a thing. Great memories with XP
It's just a overpriced PSP which can't play Burnout.
it wasn't a failure, cause we got a video from you thanks to it.
lol.
Who said anything about it to be a failure? It's directed to a specific audience, so for them it was a success, it fulfilled its purpose..
@@H.EL-Othemany yeah, he also changed the title..
Playing those games seems mind blowing considering that's the year when PSP came out.
20 years later, the handheld PC market is more heated than ever
That's a big Game & Watch.
If you drink eucolyptus oil prior to playing games on Sony Pocket PC, your brain will generate 50% more FPS.
the sony memory format is called „MemoryStick“. Magic Gate is their copy protection, also used on PS2 Memory Cards.

Looks like a magnified Nintendo Game & Watch!
Wow! Had no idea that computer existed!
Please make a Tutorial how we should spell your name
We NEED him to make tutorial !!1!!!1
4:06 Those screensavers are form the Microsoft Plus! for Windows XP ad on
I had a OQO Model 01 and loved it

3:51 Nice Portable Keyboard my dude :)
I'm pretty sure Japanese businessmen of the early 2000's didn't buy this to play Star Wars on mate!
Great review love your work ♥️ good luck with your new home❤
Great work love Windows xp my Windows of all time ❤
The new bliss image was actually part of a downloadable theme from Microsoft’s New Zealand division.
I own one of those, full drivers and gimmicks in English and Spanish. It's a pretty cool toy
550g isn't that heavy. The Surface Go is of similar weight.
it might be possible to get it to display stuff with english if all the language packs for XP can still be found as for the browser it could be because the version of windows is sp1 or sp2
Love the Chanel. Keep it up! :)
A used one of those 15 years ago as a portable music studio.
Seems like Sony already invented the Steamdeck 20 years ago!
Sony needs to sue Valve! 😂

Omg SONY placed expandable memory to this in 2004 and in 2024 apple don't have this option in hugee laptops.

You know that the computer is good when he uses the EUCALYPTUS OIL
Those wallpapers correspond to Microsoft Plus for Windows XP.
Screensavers, too

You need to install updates using Legacy Update before trying modern programs
Hey, why are your videos 25fps. It makes it difficult to watch.
I really wish I can get the device, seems interesting personally
How could I remember this Channel Name?
Searched it for so long
i bought / used one in hong kong around 2005 . english windows xp . good for my application
How many years of software support is available on Mac operating system?
maybe supermium will work if you update Windows XP to Service Pack 2 or 3
That seems comfortable to play games with it since the trackpad is like a joystick
In a way, the handheld laptop craze kinda traces it's lineage to these Sony pcs huh?
Remember when big companies wanted to make the most out of the box design?
I accidentally spilled toothpaste on my laptop, what should I do now?

Please go back to Mac content. The Windows crowd is broke and won't click on the ads.
You gotta get your hands on the Sony mylo from like 2007 or 2008

I guess today you would use a steam deck also the switch to
Ah, yes.
The Nintendo Work & Watch.
Super unrelated, but: nice watch!

Sony needs to make computers and phones again
4/10 no eucalyptus oil
now we have stuff like the deck and gpd win mini
Hey Psivewri try to buy some thinkpad t420 with some i5 or i7 not the i3 and the nvidia nvs4200 and if you buy some t420 with gpu you need 90 w charger or more because the gpu runs on 3 w with 65w charger
i have t420 with this specs:
i7 2620m
nvidia nvs 4200 1gb vram ddr3
8gb ram ddr3 4+4 1333 mhz
and 128 gb ssd with win 11 pro
all on 90 w charger
all of this for 2600 kč / 43 usd
and i live in czech :D
And if you want to you can upgrade the cpu to i7 2670gm (quad core ) but it runs bit hot with this cpu and you need 135w charger with the nvs 4200
try Beachhead 2000 game on it lol
I used to have the asus version of that tablet
The original PC gaming machine on the go
man Japan is just way too ahead of it's time.
these Vaio PCs, just crazy
My favourite channel 😊
more Mac restoration videos please
Is that other guy your partner?
I don't want windows in my pocket
I remember reading about these in an article from Engadget back in the day. I really wanted one, but it was only sold in Japan. I forgot it existed until today lol
nice old pc
Not bad at all, seems like a nice little unit if only it wasn't a Japan exclusive. The only question is, was there a market for pocket sized XP computers in 2004?
Eline sağlık!
Windows Xp hasn’t even come out yet….. we still on windows 2000. Gosh jumping the gun already
Yo
Well Psivewri, i just wanted to say thank you, thank you for making it into my childhood. Even though those gold days wont be back, ill never forget you and i still watch u till this day ❤❤
Install windows 10 on it
Play warcraft 3 on it
I’ve always been intrigued by devices like this. Too bad they weren’t more widespread outside of Japan.
Ngl, as a sucker for portables (which I still am), teen me would've loved this.
The Vaio micro devices were meant to be used with the optional Vaio port expansion hub so you could plug in more than one USB device at a time. There were a whole line of USB peripherals designed to work with these machines including USB mice and keyboards.
Now install Linux on it
3:58 Oh my lord. You just activated a ton of core memories showing the aquarium.
Reminds me of the OQO pocketable PC, a fairly contemporary device if memory serves.
I wish you talked more about storage, there was barely any info.
Under 10 minutes
4:14 Na, thery are fine.... They have the Manned Maneuvering Unit (MMU).
Nice video, and a very interesting device. Sony has made all sorts of bizarre yet cool PCs.
Sony were great back in the day for cramming a lot of tech into very small form factors. Very interesting little device !
Such a cool device
YAY, new video dropped
**An astronaut was harmed in the making of this excellent video
the windows xp home has no service pack all the browsers you tried need sp3
That is incredibly powerful for 2004
Is it just me or is the mic volume on this video very quiet?
Just you.
it feels like engineer from team fortress 2 (I am talking about pda)
Honestly it looks like it would be pretty fun to play age of empires on
Update it
