DOSBox 0.74-3: How to install Windows 95?
Quite a regular

Hi

I just downloaded today Windows 95 and I plan to install on DosBox even not knowing yet how to make my goal.

I have the fantastic RuInDosBox installed but when I click on SETUP.EXE it doesn't give me styaright to an installation window,as I barely expected.

So in order to mount a "C:" drive inside DosBox emulator:

Can someone make me straight on to the Windows 95 installation?

What commands to use?

And most importantly,

What can I expect of Windows 95 on this very date and on a machine like mine?

An AmigaOne X5000

Thanks in advance

Windows 95 works on AmigaOne X5000 via DOSBox-SVN, but the graphics were very buggy in my install.





To boot it, I used pre-made Windows 95 HD image and booted it (see video).

As I am no Windows 95 specialist I didn't go trying to replace graphics drivers if this will fix it or make it better. Also it's slow. There are some DOSBox forks that support higher Windows 95 and 98 compatibility, but they are not available for Amiga.

Experiment with various versions and drivers and please report here if you manage to get better working install than the one I have.

Thanks drHirudo,I will try when I can.

At the moment I cannot go more ahead than mounting Windows-95 on C and trying with SETUP.EXE without no success or advance.

Thank you man

DOSBox-X is supposedly better at WinDOS stuff (ie. not NT).

I think I will still be stuck with DosBOX at present time until DosBOX-X is releasd for the Amiga and that's a fact.

About a month ago I started using DosBox and yes, it was and is a great experience, all Dos applications ran really fast, even booting from Win 3.1 was fast, but there was ugly graphics rubbish (BIG ENDIAN) and Dos games could not be started directly from Win3.1/11.

I would also have liked to try Windows 95, but it's probably not possible at the moment with our DosBox, especially since if you do a little googling, a lot points to DosBox-X, which has better support for installing Win95.

OK

I need a Windows 95 HD image file.And I think that if I can get it surely I will or can install this version of Windows.

If someone can provide me with a link I will be happy or much more than happy to get and install later.

Thanks and wish me some luck
