DOS 5.3, with the NC frontend.
I still remember asking my dad to configure XMS and EMS memory whenever a game required so.

Sinclair Basic on a ZX Spectrum +2, although from memory that was pretty basic, just load from a tape I think. The first PC op sys I used was DOS 3.3.

I remember trying DOS 5 and 6, but I found they took up too much memory space on my lowly 286 with 640K of RAM to run newer games so I stuck with 3.3 until I finally upgraded and by that time win 95 was out.

Mine was KERNAL, the OS in the Commodore VIC-20. (BASIC is not an OS; it's a programming language.)

Atari OS Rev. 2 on my Atari 800XL but the first OS with a GUI I've ever used must be Amiga Workbench 2.04 on my Amiga 500+

Norton Commander 3.0 or 4.0, maybe Volcov Commander.

You mean DOS then, NC was just a file manager.

At that time I was little. And the difference is not noticed.
