Installing Windows 95 In Dosbox
I've tried every which way to install Windows 95 on DOSBox using this description and it simply does not work. A Complete Guide to Install Windows 95 on DOSBox. Copy over setup files and start Windows 95 installation At this point you should have your Windows 95 disc ready. I run windows 95B under dosbox 0.74.

Last night saw the 3rd Oxford Raspberry Jam meetup, and I was able to demonstrate my Pi running Windows 95. This was at the same time a joke and a serious demonstration of the Pi's capability.
My apologies to the mods if this is not entirely on-topic for this particular forum, I ran Windows 95 in a Bochs virtual x86 machine over Debian rather than as a Pi operating system in its own right. It was just about usable, despite no effort having gone in to tuning the Bochs setup. I can think of no practical application for Windows 95 on a Pi, but it is not impossible that perhaps someone might have to run a piece of legacy DOS software somewhere and might find Bochs a useful means to do it. Anyway, a few tech details. Bochs is in the Debian repository, so a simple apt-get installed it. I installed Windows 95 from the CD that came with a laptop in the '90s to a 100Mb Bochs hard disk image on my desktop PC and transferred it to the Pi on a USB disk. The Pi has no CD-ROM drive and I didn't fancy trying to extract the ISO file to do the task.
I used the X-windows Bochs display library, so the Debian desktop was always present in the background of the Windows 95 session. A much faster result could probably have been achieved had I compiled the SVGAlib package and run it without X, but this was more a demonstration for the laughs than practicality. As I said, 'You've seen an open OS on your Pi, now here's a wide-open one!' A tempting idea, but this is something of a curiosity and a joke, and will always remain so. Firstly, you need to own a Windows 95 licence to do it. B Cas Keygen Idm. This is not a redistributable piece of software.
Secondly, it's in a 1990s PC emulated on a Pi. That means it's never going to be quick in any sense of the word. And thirdly, Windows 95 is now not far off twenty years old. Would you buy your relatives a 486DX2-66 with 16Mb of memory now, in 2012? Of course not. So you probably wouldn't give them the OS it came with. It's slow, buggy, insecure and incapable of running many things we now take for granted.
Forget it, Windows 95 barely supports it. If you have a relative who would benefit from a Pi but is used to the Windows interface then I would suggest finding a Windows-like skin for the Linux desktop, the result will be far more useful.

Many people have turned their PI into cheap media centres which couldn't be any more than educational, but who cares the PI is what you make it (the PI can, therefore I will).
However I have always been fascinated by emulators and it's especially interesting seeing Microsoft Windows running on an ARM based machine when it's executing Intel code. Running Windows on the PI can have it's uses too i.e.
