This way you have something to fallback on that will boot, because from here the PCI 'upgrade' gets trickey. From here I'd recommend you shut down the VM, and backup the disk image. Then you will have a running Windows 95 machine on ISA hardware. Then it will reboot the VM a few times, ask about printers, and whatnot. From here I usually modify the hardware myself, unselect all network cards, scsi cards, remove the video except for the standard VGA adapter, remove all audio cards, and select only the soundblaster, and let it do it's thing.

It'll find the 'stub' windows and then prompt for a new install in the C:\windows direcotory. Once MS-DOS has done it's quick boot (no config.sys/autoexec.bat) we go ahead and run windows setup.įrom here the setup program will start to copy files, and then prompt you that it wants to check for a previous windows install. Also we are still going to install this as an ISA computer.

The cirrus drivers in Windows 95a will *NOT* work with Qemu. This forces the virtual machine to have a Soundblaster 16 & standard VGA. hda win95.disk -m 32 -M isapc -soundhw sb16 -vga std Ok, now from here I'd close Qemu, and start it up like this: I prep a fake windows 3.1 directory, and then copy the install files to the hard disk. Now with the disk formatted, I'm going to 'assume' your boot disk can read the CD-ROM. It's not that hard with MS-DOS 6.22 as it'll want to just do it (keep hitting 1!).įrom the it will want to reboot, and you can format the hard disk. From here you'll want to fdisk & format the hard drive.

This will create & run a Windows 95 ISA machine, mount the physical CD-ROM and boot from the 'floppy'. hda win95.disk -m 32 -M isapc -cdrom \\.\d: -fda bootfloppy.vfd -boot a I think the 'minimum' you would want would be 200MB.Īnyways for the first boot on Qemu 0.10.5 it looks like this: Because Windows 95 is a fat16 OS you can only have 2GB max partitions. The first thing you'll need to do is create a virtual hard disk. It's the 'upgrade' version so there is a little hackery to get around installing Windows 3.1. Now if you don't have a good bootdisk for MS-DOS or an MS-DOS intall set, I'd recommend

The first thing I did was to grab a bootdisk & make sure I could fdisk/format the hard disk & mount a CD-ROM. which is the last version to run on Windows 95. Optional would be Internet Explorer 5.5sp2.

RetroArch can run on the usual platforms like Windows, Mac OS X and Linux, but it stands alone in that it can support far more platforms beyond just that.
