Install Windows 1.01 Dosbox
I recently got Windows Me partially running in DOSBox SVN Daum (I'll post a separate article about that later.) so I thought that I'd show you how to run every DOS-based version of Windows in DOSBox. Okay, Let's get Started! Windows 1.01: 1. Download this: 2.
Rename it Win101.img and type this in DOSBox: boot C: win101.img. Replace C: with the folder you downloaded the floppy to. Windows 2.x: 1.
Download this: or Google the version of Win2.x you want. After you've extracted the images, Extract the files from all the images using 7-Zip or WinImage and put them into a folder. Mount the Windows 2.03 setup folder in DOSBox as A: and mount any folder you want on your Hard Drive as C:. Go to A: and type setup. After it's done installing, type 'ver set 4.00' as Windows 2.03 will not run on MS-DOS versions 5 or later. Windows 3.1: 1.
Install Windows 1 01 Dosbox Games How To Play DOS Games Under Windows XPAdvertisement. Windows XP is easily one of the most successful operating systems that Microsoft has ever released, but for those of us who remember the good old days of DOS, using a computer with a graphical point and click interface, seems almost magical – and mundane.
I'll make things easy for you by giving a link to a pre-installed copy with Drivers: 2. In DOSBox, Mount the folder you extracted the RAR into as C:. Windows 95/98: 1.
Google 'DOSBox SVN Daum' and download it. (Recommended but Optional) 2. Download Bochs and Open Bximage.exe 3. Make a flat 2GB (2048MB) HDD image. Write down the number of Cylinders, Heads and Sectors Per Track. Download an MS-DOS 6.22 Boot Image from AllBootDisks.com 5. Load both images in Bochs and use FDISK to partition the image.
Format it by typing 'format c: /s' 6. Copy the WIN95 or WIN98 folder from your Windows 95/98 CD or ISO (Google a download link.) to your Hard Drive and inject the folder into the 2GB image using WinImage. Type the following into DOSBox: Imgmount C: c.img -size 512,63,128,520 Boot -l c: 8. Type CD WIN95 (or WIN98) and then type 'Setup /IS' /is will skip ScanDisk. Follow the Onscreen Instructions. Re-Open DOSBox and Repeat Step 7 after you see 'Reboot Requested, Quitting Now' 10. Note that you can also put the commands from Step 7 into your autoexec.bat file by adding them to the autoexec section of your DOSBox.conf file.
Windows Me: 1. Use the First 5 steps from the Windows 95/98 guide. Copy the WIN9X folder from your Windows Me CD or ISO (Google a download link.) to your Hard Drive and inject the folder into the 2GB image using WinImage.

Type CD WIN9X and Type 'Setup /IS' As mentioned before, The /is parameter will skip ScanDisk. Follow the Onscreen Instructions and use the restart method from Step 9 in the Win95/98 guide. If you encounter a BSOD about CONFIGMG, Start WinMe in Safe Mode and use Device Manager to remove a device called 'Advanced Power Management' 7.
Load the Image in Bochs and finish Setup from there. For Speed and Stability, Install 98Lite (www.litepc.com) or If you want to keep the IE integration, Set the Resolution to 640x480 but it won't work as well.
Windows 1.0 - Microsoft (1987) Tested By: MNGoldenEagle runnable - playable - supported DOSBox version: 0.74 ( supported) runnable - playable - supported 0% supported DOSBox version: 0.65 ( broken) Work very well (Run from floppy) (2013-06-09 20:10) Glitchologteam Ive tested Windows 1.0 by running it from the floppy and not installing and with VER SET 3 30 It will run without problem. If you have mounted a folder, a CD or a floppy drive prior to loading Windows 1, WIN 1 will be able to see that folder! Its great for people that want to run Win 1.0 from the floppy. You can also save your stuff on the floppy itself or on one of the mounted folder Windows 1.04 (2012-08-24 13:55) ice Looping Win 1.0x setup is not a DOSBOX fault, it must be run from floppies. But even if you manage to install it somehow it won't run - you'll see broken splash screen and after a while a green desktop, but nothing more. It seems to be a DOS emulation bug, because when put on a bootable floppy image together with a DOS 3.30 it runs just fine under DOSBOX 0.72.
Newer versions of Windows (2.x, 3.x) installs and runs flawlessly on DOSBOX emulated DOS. Loading Windows 1 (2012-08-14 19:53) ElwoodH If you have an old PC that runs DOS, you can install Windows 1 on it and then copy the Windows folder whole onto a USB or zip drive or whatever you portable drive will work on it, and then simply copy it into your Dosbox folder. I've done this with every version up to 3.1 - tried it with 3.11 and it ran but no icons appeared. But for all versions 1 and 2 it works a treat. If you don't have any way of copying the folder from the old pc, simply remove the hard drive and install it as a slave or via a device such as this: Supported (2012-05-18 16:45) TheWindowsXPGuy Note: The setup folder MUST be mounted as drive A: Install using dk82's method: Press CTRL+F4 after entering your install path.

(2011-09-24 17:23) dk82 I've successfully installed Windows 1.00, 1.01, 1.02, 1.03, and 1.04 on DOSBox 0.74. When prompted for an install path, press enter (to accept default of c:windows) THEN press Ctrl-F4 to refresh the disk cache. This is a necessary step (due to DOSBox handling of mounted drives) for the installer to recognize that the directory was created. You must select graphics option 5 (EGA) if you want color.
BE sure to set your DOS version to 3.3 (ver set 3 30 - note the space between 3 and 30!) or you'll receive memory errors when attempting to run any program within Windows 1.x. Windows 1.01 (2010-10-17 07:20) Stray Just loops back to the first screen.
