Install Windows 3.x with DOSBox


1. Regroup contenu of disquettes Windows 3.x disks in the SAME directory (ex. c:/doswin/win3x)

2. Make a directory that will serve as a hard disk for your emulator (ex. c:/doshdd)

3. Start DOSBox, then enter following commands :
# mount c c:/doshdd
# mount d c:/doswin/win3x

4. We access now the content of disks and proceed with the installation :
# d:
# cd win3x
# cd install

5. The installation process is now very easy to continue, I recommand STANDARD installation and not CUSTOM ! All settings can be optimized in the future from Windows itself..

6. Close DOSBox, then restart Windows 3.x :
# mount c c:/doshdd
# c:
# cd windows
# win

NB : for any question about these process and/or installation process, feel free to post a comment there!

I advise you to download different versions of Windows 3.x by registering on the website http://www.win3x.org/ !
