I'd recommend QEMU for running FreeDOS on Raspberry Pi (RPI). Personally,
I prefer it for x86 too.
I run multiple qemu-based x86 FreeDOS nodes (sometimes 6 or more) on a
single RPI-4 with plenty of CPU cycles to spare. Using APM aware software
in FreeDOS (like FDAPM) really helps with CPU usage,

Hi!
You can configure Wine to simulate any Windows version
from Windows 2.0 to Windows 10, including the popular
versions Windows 98 and Windows XP, so I would not be
too worried about your apps being too old for Wine.

Well it's like this.
For me it's too hard to orientate in command line interface such as dos.
For better orientation I prefer some sort of grafical user interface (GUI)

nope. starting with Windows 3.11 for workgroups, most work is done by

How old is that PC? Unless it was made in the early to middle 1990s, you can't
expect it to support your PC's hardware.

What about it?
It is another, completely self-standing OS, which doesn't have any
relation to FreeDOS.
Therefor, it would be off-topic here... ;-)

Oh. Um well. OK. What about installing windows nt3.51 on my system? On the
other way: I don't want to use virtual machines because my pc is freezer
and it runs only on some 21 frames per second which is poor.
But thanks.

You should install Win95 in a empty disk. It is not possible to copy
files from an other installation because some files have to be placed in

Hello,
I tried to install windows 95 on my PC. But it ended up with an error.
So I installed Windows 3.11. Is anyone able to make zip file of C: drive
with Windows 95 and send me link to download. Then I can unzip it to my
c: and it should work.
Thanks,
Simon___
