WINDOWS 3.1 SETUP DOSBOX INSTALL
When prompted for an install path, press enter (to accept default of c:windows) THEN press Ctrl-F4 to refresh the disk cache. I think an important additional note is that every time you switch disk and before running the command in Windows press Ctrl-F4. I know this is an old post but I did just install Windows 1.03 following dk82's instructions. Once installation is complete, enter the following commands: Press CTRL+F4 after entering your install path. Note: The setup folder MUST be mounted as drive A: 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: (with_Power_Supply)/product_info.html?gclid=CPKymIv_srECFUcKtAod_GgAkQ But for all versions 1 and 2 it works a treat.

I've done this with every version up to 3.1 - tried it with 3.11 and it ran but no icons appeared. 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. Newer versions of Windows (2.x, 3.x) installs and runs flawlessly on DOSBOX emulated DOS. 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. 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. Looping Win 1.0x setup is not a DOSBOX fault, it must be run from floppies. You can also save your stuff on the floppy itself or on one of the mounted folder Its great for people that want to run Win 1.0 from the floppy. 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!. Ive tested Windows 1.0 by running it from the floppy and not installing and with
