Scratch

Look at other peoples OS's like SynOS and ZapOS to give you an idea.

You should look at Xenotype, SynOS, TechnOS, etc. When making it, spend time doing this. A good OS takes a long time to finally make.

Also, when you are making it, to get everybody hyped up about it, I would release betas, or versions of the software that aren't stable and may contain glitches, online. Others may find glitches that you haven't, etc.


GOOD LUCK!!!!! 

sry but i think this is a really stupid question...

how do you create an OS in scratch ?(windows 7)

because all these os simulations on scratch (only simulations! - i think) are normale scratch projects...
you should take important pictures from windows 7 (just like button screen desktop background, etc...)

if you are new on scratch you should try something more easier ...

And I just want to say that I do not like all these os simulations where you can't do anything, only change the background, paint something (! what you can't save), or listen to music...
And I think that  you shouldn't try to copy windows 7 (or to do something looks like w7)... if you want to create a os simulation on scratch, make your own!
How would be your own os sim? that would be more interesting then w7, w vista or w xp!

PS:

my os simulation is my OWN os (called System 2 - i know very creativ^^)!
it includes a filebrowser, were you can add and delete files!
and it has it's own programming language (s2l Lite)...
