Flying Windows
Flying Windows is a screensaver included with the 3.1x and 9x versions of the Microsoft Windows operating system. The screensaver is similar to Starfield, in which the users computer has the view out of the cockpit of a spaceship travelling through deep space at high speed. The Flying Windows screensaver gives the effect of a spaceship hurtling through a field of multi-coloured Windows logos at a speed the user can set.
The Flying Windows screensaver makes use of the standard PC 16 colours because of when it was introduced. Flying Windows is available on Windows 3.1, 3.11, 95, 98 and Me only. It can be installed on other versions of Windows only by copying it over manually from a Windows 9x/Me PC.
Both Starfield and Flying Windows use nearly identical code. The only difference is that Starfield draws white squares while Flying Windows draws the Windows logo from the Wingdings font. [1][2]
