Did you miss the entire post or just the part where I was asking for help?
My name is literally the symbol and coin you love so much BTC .
My DOB is the only one in the Genesis block, this isn't proof that I mined it, it's just a coincidence.  I may or may not have the signature for the Genesis block as well.  I'd never move anything to do with the Genesis block.

It's also a coincidence that my wife is the daughter of a preacher man and she's the one who named it.  Lol

Her DOB is the launch date, again just a coincidence.

She's also a twin, again just a coincidence.

My name has twoSs and two As in it, again just a coincidence.
I am also a person (kanaka) of HI descent.  Again just a coincidence.
My Social security number is in the Genesis block, again just a coincidence.
My family's DOBs are in the Genesis block, again just a coincidence.

It's also a coincidence that Hawaiians have long struggled for the right to self govern and sovereignty, again just a coincidence that Bitcoin is literally the digital embodiment of this idea.

Hawaiians and the government of HI before the overthrow were essentially the middleman of trade between the East and West.  You know remove the middleman concept, again just a coincidence.

Hal told me to never move block 0 or 1 so in good faith I will respect his wishes.  He was also worried about legal ramifications in those days but I think we are long past that.
You have a choice to help.  I believe I made the right choice in making sure it was mostly Americans that would be given the chance to own Bitcoin.  The current supply is held at approximately 50%+ by Americans.  You know, people with Freedom of speech, people who can think freely, worship freely, vote freely, travel freely etc.

Bitcoin core files 2009

I need help getting my old bitcoin core files to work.  I have been researching and the only guys that have successfully come close are doing it via linux.  So here's the problem.  Maybe someone has a solution.
Bitcoin core files from Windows Vista
I don't have windows vista.
Last accessed via windows xp and or windows 7
Last year accessed was 2010- 2011 after I was getting help from one of the first Bitcoin devs.  Coins weren't showing.
I managed to get it working a few days later unbeknownst to him.  2010-2011 was the last time we had communications.
I know I have Bitcoin block 2 and the corresponding required signature to prove ownership.  I could spend from this UTXO set but Id rather not use anything before block 170.  Any help is welcome, even criticism for doing it this way.🙏 Thank you all (in advance) for any guidance and help you might you might be able to provide.  I would also like it if we can stay on topic.  No weird questions about Satoshi or Hal or Adam(who never responded btw).  If you have any of those questions please feel free to start a new post in another section and I will try to respond to them.

So a node doesn't save anything?  What would be the importance of an earlier node aside from the cool factor?  Wouldn't the node still be able to sign for transactions with coins related to said node?  I have an idea which transactions were ones that I made.  For example, a set of transactions that occurred around July '09 where I consolidated 200 addresses into a 10k coin address for the "cool" factor when a friend of mine asked if it was possible to put that many coins into one address.

Two full nodes running and a couple of questions!

For the first time since 2011 I have a full node up and running.  Two different machines.  My question is what does a node save and what doesn't it save pre wallet era.  When I was mining we didn't have wallets showing all the coins available.
