Thanks for any help. I had that game called 'Fallout'. An awesome game from 1997. It also had a patch 1.1 and a dos version. I could play the game on my computer after working with the config and stuff. But I wanted to show how cool this game actually is to my 'non geek' friends. I thought about using iDos application (which uses DosBox) to run the dos version of the game.
The problem I got was the game freezing a lot, the app crashing. Not loading at all. I got the game to work after 2 days of research.
But the graphics were really glitchy and the sound was gone. (And sound = atmosphere of the game, the experience) I couldn't enjoy the game without sound. So i thought about installing windows through iDos.
I googled and found out that i can install windows 3, windows 95, windows 98 or windows me. I don't know why, but i downloaded an.img file of windows 98.
It took me a good 5 hours to get it to work. After doing that i tried to connect a 'fake disk' to windows 98. But I failed. So i used an app called WinImage to open up the files in.img file. Then i added the fallout setup files.
After that I used iDos to boot windows. Installed fallout on the img using iDos. Then when i tried booting the game i got a message that the game can only run in windows 95. I downloaded windows 95 and deleted 98. I was faster this time, got it to work in under 10 minutes!
Nice, isn't it? I installed fallout again. It told me to download directx 3.0 or higher. So i downloaded directx 6.1 and installed. The install also asked me if i wanted to install a driver.
I said 'yes'. But then the whole windows crashed. I reinstalled everything and said 'no' this time. Everything is going well. I tried to boot the game now. It came up with a warning: This app needs to be run with 256 color or higher.
Or something like that. Anyway i then looked up at the control panel, to display.
I only had 16 color or monochrome. And the display was only 640x480. I googled a lot to find a working win95a graphic driver. I installed it. It got installed well. Then i chose new graphics card adaptor.
The new driver of course! (Still going well) Checked the control panel, display. The 256 color, truecolor(32) and 16 bit color options were unlocked.
I chose 256 of course. After chosing 256 color the display option popped. Now I could slide from 480 to 1024.
Great, right? Though I kept it at 480 and just chose 256 color. I clicked apply. But windows warned me that i need to restart in order to apply changes.
Which closes the iDos application. I reopened the iDos and booted windows 95 again. I didn't notice anything different. I checked display settings again. And it was still 16 color with 256 color and such unlucked. But whenever I choose them it tells me to restart and closes the app. I googled more and found that dosbox doesn't support 256 color.
But I also found that some people got it to work. Just the files were old and deleted. So I couldn't download.
But I am so close. I can't stop yet. If anyone can help me get past this problem, thanks.
Problem: Can't set 256 color without restarting. And when i restart it is back to 16 color. Is there a way to boot it always 256 color maybe?
Looking at how OS had marvelled over these three decades starting from the 90s somehow makes me reminiscent the good old days of Win 3.1, Win95 and Win98. I certainly missed playing my first ever computer games such as Prince of Persia, Mario, and Doom. And so embark my journey to relive those memories again in the modern machine.
To do that, I selected DosBox, which is an emulator that fully emulates those legacy machines. Like many others, I started off to search for related tutorials and what-not on Google, only to found that most of them are either too fragmented or requires me to piece up the tidbits.
To save time, I had decided to write up this tutorial just so you wouldn't had the same experience that I did. So, you will need:. MS-DOS Boot Disc. Windows 95 Installation Disc.
Hard disk image that host your Win95 partition. Download a copy of DOS boot disk - 622C.IMG from. For unknown reason I could't boot when using the DOS 6.22 boot disk from. Just like any VM, I know that I will need hard disk image to host the Windows 95 OS. Many tutorials covers the steps to build your own hard disk image, requiring somewhat technical understanding. To avoid these complications, I simply choose a blank pre-formatted FAT16.img from. Don't be surprise with the capacity as the file is compressed and barely reaches 200 KB even for 1GB. This is because they are empty disk image.
For me personally, 1GB is more than enough. DosBox requires the hard disk image to be flatten out in size instead of dynamically growing like many VM implementations nowadays. Upon extraction you will get the full blown size of the selected disk size. Lastly, I then downloaded Win95 Installation Disc (win95en.iso) from. The version I chose was. Having downloaded all of them, I then moved them to DosBox folder. Note that I did not specify the drive name such as c or d since there I assume there is still no file system (FAT16, FAT32, NTFS) on it.
Instead, I use 2 which will mount it on native system hda. (0-1 will mount to fda and fdb (floppy disk a, b) and 2-3 will mount to hda and hdb). In addition, it is also necessary to specify the exact disk geometry (i.e. Sectors, cylinders) to let the file system utility that we'll use next (fdisk) know where the disk ends. If you grab the pre-formatted hard disk image from, simply replace the value matching the ones you downloaded. For instance, I will enter 512,63,64,520 since I'm downloading the 1GB image.
256MB image: 512,63,16,520 512MB image: 512,63,32,520 520MB image: 512, 1GB image: 512,63,64,520 2GB image: 512, After mounting the disk I then boot into MS-DOS 6.22 by typing boot 622c.img. Make a new directory called WIN95 in C:/ which is your empty hard disk image. We will later copy the entire content of folder WIN95 from Windows 95 installation disk here. C: mkdir WIN95 copy D: WIN95. 3. Installing Windows 95 After that, start the installation by: c: cd WIN95 setup /is (. /is flag prevent ScanDisk from running) Follow the wizard and it will ask for a CD-Key at some point.
I use the following: 12095-OEM-003. More CD-Key can be found. After finishing the installation the system will restart, i.e. DOSBox will quit. You'll have to relaunch it again. To boot from the hard disk image, simply type the following: imgmount 2 hdd-1gb.img -size 512,63,64,520 -fs none boot -l c Note: Some tutorials make some mistake in this step by typing the following: imgmount c hdd-1gb.img boot hdd-1gb.img This will result in Invalid System Disk. I followed everything right and used the same files as this guide but I get an error when trying to install windows: 'SU-0013 - To set up Windows 95, your startup drive must be an MS-DOS boot partition.
If your startup drive is an HPFS or Windows NT file system, you must create an MS-DOS boot partition before running Setup. For more information, on creating an MS-DOS boot partition, see the documentation that came with your computer.' And in SETUP.txt it says: 'If you have LANtastic networking or SuperStor compression, see those sections earlier in this document for more information.'
Yeah, I've been having the same problem at setup as you! Honestly, I was thinking that even though the blank disks he gave us are pre-formatted, we still need to do a format C: plus a quick FDISK checkup to match it to Windows 95 standards. I still don't know why the mod didn't put a solution on the page.
Are there any solutions (besides mine)? I don't know! -Christopher (BTW, I had to rewrite this 3 times because stupid Google doesn't have a failsafe and when I try to write this comment, then I have to sign in, verify, fail (and block myself out), try again, type in my phone number, sign in (successfully), take care of sign in issues, try again, change my password, change it and automatically sign in, sign into my mail, go into my browser, rewrite this comment (which it doesn't save), have to sign in (with the new password), then rewrite this comment a 3rd time.
All that work for a single reply? Not buying it, Google!). Ran into the same problem initially.
You have to load MS Dos before all of that so Windows 95 can install off of it. (boot 622c.img). After DOS is loaded, don't do the whole fdisk thing - simply continue to mount d as. Win95en and c as hdd-1gb.img.
Also, note that the copy function is copying INTO a directory, so you don't just 'copy d: WIN95.' Instead, from C: type CD WIN95, then from C: WIN95, type COPY D: WIN95.
That should solve most issues. The problem I have at this point is graphics and cursors within 95:/.
Anonymous, once you are in DOS and in the C: WIN95 directory, type 'dir' and press enter. It will show you the contents of the folder.
If the setup.exe file is not in there, that is why DOS doesn't recognize the command and maybe the files didn't copy to C: WIN95 correctly. However it sounds like they should've copied correctly since you are able to run it in DOSBox.strange. Another way to check is to use a program like 7-Zip or PowerISO, then you can look at the contents of the img file in windows explorer format. Only if it was helpful? I've tried every which way to install Windows 95 on DOSBox using this description and it simply does not work at all. There are some obvious errors others have mentioned here, but other errors are not corrected and I keep getting the same SU-0013 error messages.
I know Windows 95 can be run in DOSBox, but I suspect that either the people who successfully do it have access to 'secret, inside' info on exactly how to install it, or there is a required version of DOSBox that I simply am not aware of or isn't available any longer. For anyone who is stuck on the tutorial!!
There is an error present in the tutorial! The last action in step two: c: mkdir WIN95 copy D: WIN95. Forget the statement cd WIN95 in between mkdir and copy! Not following this step will result in an error during windows 95 setup because the files will be copied to the C drive root instead of win95 folder! After you completed this step, make sure you execute step 3 inside DOS! So close everything, reboot dosbox, mount c and d first, then boot into dos, then perform step 3! This way worked for me.
I think it should be noted about graphics settings for those using Windows XP as the host machine. When reconfiguring the dosbox.conf file do not use any of the opengl settings.
Windows 95 On Dosbox Turbo
Instead, set the configuration as follows. Fullresolution=original output=direct3d aspect=true If you do this, you will get a full screen using the host machine's monitor without the sacrifice of the guest machine's resolution, whatever it is you want it to be (after installing your s3 graphics, of course). This is important for games such as MYST that require a 640x480 screen with 256 colors and WON'T work without it being set that way. HOW I GOT BLANK ATM CARD THAT CHANGE MY ENTIRE LIFE.

I got around that by finding another MS- DOS disk image and copying it to a folder that would be used as a separate drive where I can run command.com. Things went differently when I checked the blank hard disk with fdisk.com and found that the partition's file system was showing as 'UNKNOWN'. I didn't know if this would affect anything else, so I carried on. I mounted the windows 95 folder and ran setup /is from the win95 folder.

Old guide wrote:You just can't do it while in DOSBox's own DOS shell-you need to boot up from pure DOS. Let me know if you want anything elaborated; I kind of wrote this in a hurry since I've got a ton of other work to get done today and should really be getting started 1.
Get a boot disk First off, get an MS-DOS boot disk. You'll need a.img file. I myself used from. I don't know exactly which versions of MS-DOS will work, but I suppose 7 should be fine too.
I've read that you can cheat Windows into accepting a different version by using set ver 6.0, but I can't confirm this myself since if you use 6.22 you'll never run into this problem. Make sure this file is in your DOSBox directory. Make a hard disk image You can do this using the bximage program that comes with Bochs.
Contains a built in command for creating these from within DOSBox. (Would be awesome if that could be merged with the main branch.) Making an image using bximage is extremely straightforward.
There's a section on using it too. All you really need to remember when using bximage is the cylinder count, since everything else is standardized and shouldn't be changed. In my example I'm making a 400 MB image which has 812 cylinders.
Only flat images are supported (as of this time of editing). Sparse images will not be recognized. However, it's possible to still compress flat files using your host OS's filesystem; in Windows XP, this is the default behavior (hence the blue filename). Copy this file (let's call it c.img) to your DOSBox directory. Mount and format your new hard disk image So now we have a hard disk image that we're going to be installing Windows 95 on.
The problem is it doesn't have a filesystem yet. This is where our boot disk first comes in.
Start up DOSBox and type the following: Code: imgmount 2 c.img -size 512,63,16,812 -t hdd -fs none Note: you may need to replace c.img with the name you gave your image file, and replace 812 with the cylinder count you used when creating the file using bximage. It should say Drive number 2 mounted as c.img. You might notice that we're not giving it a drive letter: basically, every drive needs to have a filesystem, which is a sort of file index, before it can be used properly.
Without a filesystem (like FAT32, NTFS, HFS+, etc.) a filesystem is just empty, unorganized space that the operating system can recognize but can't really do anything with, so until we fix this problem we can't mount it under C or any other drive letter yet. Modifying filesystems on a drive is called partitioning. Now type the following: Code: boot 622c.img DOSBox will now boot up from the MS-DOS boot disk. The first thing we'll do is use fdisk to create a filesystem. Run fdisk, choose option 1 (Create DOS partition or Logical DOS Drive), then option 1 (Create Primary DOS Partition).
When asked if you want the new partition to comprise the whole hard disk, choose Y. A system restart will be prompted. Press enter; DOSBox will quit.
Now that we have our newly partitioned drive, we need to format it to effectively bring it to a completely empty and consistent state so that we can start putting files on it. To do so, we need to restart DOSBox and boot back into MS-DOS.
This time, however, we'll mount our drive differently: Code: imgmount c c.img At this point, DOSBox should say 'Drive C is mounted as c.img'. If something is wrong, start this step over.
Don't attempt to access the C drive from DOSBox's own DOS shell or you might make it unreadable for pure DOS. Now boot into MS-DOS by using the same command as last time: Code: boot 622c.img When you enter the DOS prompt, format your new C drive by typing: Code: format c: Note: if at this point DOSBox is incorrectly reporting the size of your hard disk, that may be due to either a DOSBox bug or a problem with MS-DOS. I don't know exactly which one, but I've found that hard disk images with a size of over 512 MB (or a cylinder count of over 1000?) tend to be problematic. They'll work, but you'll only be able to use a portion. Copy over setup files and start Windows 95 installation At this point you should have your Windows 95 disc ready.
The version should not matter all that much; I'm using a Dutch OEM version myself, the same one I got with my first Pentium computer about 17 years ago. It doesn't really matter if it's an image or not. The trick here is to copy the installation files over to your newly formatted hard disk and then perform the install from there. (If you don't have an image already, consider making one anyway. Discs degrade over time and will become unreadable, especially if it's already a home made copy to begin with.) The easiest way to do this (to my knowledge, anyway) is to mount the c.img file in your operating system. Qbix mentioned that mount -o loop dos622.img /mnt should do it on Linux. I'm on Mac OS X myself and can mount it by double clicking on the image file in the Finder.
On Windows, I'm not entirely sure if this is possible, but a program like Isobuster should work too. Dominus recommends using which is free. Make sure you close DOSBox before you move the files. All you need to do is move over the entire WIN95 directory (the one containing all the CAB files) from the CD to your mounted and now formatted image.
It should be only about 34 MB in size. Unmount c.img and restart DOSBox.
We'll now start the installation. Mount c.img like we did the last time and boot 622c.img. To start the installation, type the following: Code: c: cd win95 setup /is (The /is flag will prevent Scandisk from running, which is unnecessary.) Note: if the mouse is not working at this point, exit setup and run mouse.com from the A: drive. Windows 95 will now begin installation.
To have Windows start up automatically when starting DOSBox, you could edit your config to contain the following under autoexec: Code: autoexec imgmount c c.img boot c.img In a little while, Windows 95 will be installed. If you find that DOSBox isn't running anymore after a while, that's because Windows setup prompted a restart. Simply restart DOSBox and reboot into your c.img (if you haven't already added the above lines to your autoexec). Caveats and finishing up Note that the best way to run Windows 95 under DOSBox is with machine=svgas3, core=normal and cputype=pentiumslow. I'm actually not sure about core=normal being the best choice (qbix mentioned that the dynamic core is probably as safe to use as the normal core), but it's the oldest and most tested. In the past, core=simple was used to run Windows 95, but these days it does more harm than good.
The simple core emulates less instructions and causes visual glitches today. It's possible to get working using HAL9000's, but it requires compiling your own version or using his Megabuild. I'll update this guide later when I get that working. On Mac OS X, make sure you don't set the screen bit depth to anything over 8-bit (256 colors). 16-bit and 32-bit are broken and causes visual glitches. I've also found that it's MUCH faster in full-screen mode when using the opengl output system. Hardware detection should work just fine, so don't worry about DOSBox locking up.
To qbix, Dominus, h-a-l-9000 and the rest of the IRC gang for helping me get this working. Visit #dosbox @ irc.freenode.net. Post here if you're having trouble so I can add fixes to the guide. TODO. Get internet working.
Get CD-ROM drive working (is this possible?). Find out how to easily move win95 dir to disk image on Windows host operating system.
Svenne wrote:Nice guide, but I can't get MS-DOS to detect the image file. I'm using a MS-DOS 7.1 boot floppy. The image file is on 500 mb and 1015 cylinders. What kind of error message are you getting? Does the image mount successfully under the DOSBox prompt but then fail to show up in fdisk (actually, causing fdisk to say 'no fixed disks present')?
EDIT: well, this is strange. I just tried doing this myself a couple of times with a 500 MB image of 1015 cylinders, but apparently I can't get fdisk to recognize disk images that were set to 'sparse' or 'growing'. The 'flat' image type works consistently, which is strange considering I do believe my own install is on a sparse image. Anybody know what might cause this? Member Posts: 154 Joined: 2009-4-26 @ 12:09 Location: Rotterdam, The Netherlands. I am getting a wonky error trying to follow this guide when trying to mount the image, specifically. I have a 512MB image - 1040 cyl.
I try using the line: imgmount 2 c c.img -size 523, -fs none It returns 'The image must be on a host or local drive.' I have also tried imgmount 3, imgmount 2 c x: c.img (where x: is the dosbox directory where c.img is located mounted in dosbox), imgmount 2 c c: dosbox c.img, and every other logical combination I can think of. I am using that special build w/ glide, NE2000, and etc. Support by one of the members here. Not the MBL, the other - his name escapes me but starts with a 'G'.

First of all, your bytes per sector in that command is set to 523, it should be 512. Also, when mounting the image the first time, you're not supposed to specify a drive letter but a device type instead (hence the 2; the c in your command shouldn't be there, it should only be used later after partitioning).
You also need to make sure you add the -t hdd part. Try this: imgmount 2 c.img -size 512, -t hdd -fs none Member Posts: 154 Joined: 2009-4-26 @ 12:09 Location: Rotterdam, The Netherlands.
Windows 9x is NOT officially supported under DOSBox.STABILITY OF WINDOWS 9x GUEST IN DOSBOX IS HIGHLY DEPENDENT ON VIDEO DRIVERS. INSTALL THE ATTACHED DRIVERS FOR S3 CARD.WINDOWS 9X WILL FREEZE OR CRASH OCCASIONALLY. LEARN TO LOVE IT OR FIX IT YOURSELF.
ONLY USE CPUTYPE=PENTIUMSLOW in DOSBOX.CONF. USE NO OTHER PARAMETERS WINDOWS ME DOES NOT WORK IN DOSBOX. USE VMWARE VIRTUALPC ETC. Downloads Needed: Latest DOSBox version (DOSBox 0.74 as of this guide) or DOSBox SVN (7-23-2011 as of this guide) HAL9000 Megabuild v6 Gulikoza or Yhkwong DOSBox build (for Glide support) Winimage ImDisk or equivalent WinPcap (for builds of DOSBox with NE2000 support) GENERIC WINDOWS 9x INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS.WITH WINDOWS 95B+ YOU WILL EXPERIENCE DIALOG ERRORS DURING INSTALL. JUST CONTINUE THE INSTALL SHORT INSTRUCTIONS 1. Download and install DOSBox 0.74 2.
Download 2GBFreeDOS.zip attached to this post. Unzip the contents to the DOSBox directory. Add this line to the autoexec section in dosbox.conf imgmount 2 2gbfreedos.img -t hdd -fs none -size 512, 4.

Open the 2GBfreedos.img with Winimage or IMDISK. Copy the 9x installation files to the '9xinst' directory. Execute DOSBox and boot the image with the command 'boot -l c' 6. Go to the 9xinst directory on the image and type in 'setup /NM /IS' to start the install. When setup is done with the first part of setup it will close DOSBox. (This is normal) 8.
Start DOSBox again and run 'boot -l c'. When setup is done it will go straight to the Windows desktop and you are done installing! Shut down DOSBox and make a backup of the image so you don't have to reinstall again. LONG INSTRUCTIONS 1. Download and install DOSBox 0.74 (Overwrite DOSBox 0.74 files with SVN if you want to use the SVN) 2. Download HAL9000 MegaBuild v6 and install: 3. Execute HAL9000 MegaBuild v6.
Create a Hard Drive image by typing 'Imgmake test.img -t hd2gig -nofs -bat' inside of DOSBox. (Refer to the documentation for other options for imgmake) This command will create 'test.img' in the same directory as HAL9000 MegaBuild that is 2gb in size. Make a backup copy of the image so you don't have to bother recreating it again if you wish. (Use NTFS compression on it or compress it with a compression program to save space if needed). Move 'test.img' and 'test.bat' to the DOSBox 0.74 directory (if you are not going to use HAL9000's DOSBox Build to run the OS) 6.
Next you will next need a floppy image of MS-DOS. I'm not sure that it matters which version, as long as it's MSDOS 5.00+ then you should be good to go.
If you don't already have an image then use Winimage to create one or you can download an image from the internet. Name the floppy image something small like 'dos622.ima'. Copy the floppy image to the DOSBox directory. Copy the Windows 9x CD to a folder in the DosBox directory. Put it in a directory with a short name like '9xinst'. Open DosBox.conf and make sure that the Autoexec section looks like this: (use the values from 'test.bat' for -size) imgmount 0 dos622.ima -t floppy -fs none imgmount 2 test.img -t hdd -fs none -size 512,63,xx,xxxx (This will automatically mount the image whenever you launch DosBox) 10.
Execute DOSBox and verify that it mounted the images correctly. If it didn't then you have done something wrong.
(Either bad images or you still have it open in another program) 11. Type in 'Boot -l a' to boot your floppy image.
Go into FDISK and partition your HD. Close DOSBox 13. Open DOSBox and execute 'Boot -l a'. Run 'format c: /s' to format the HD and to make it bootable. Exit DOSBox 16.
REM the below line in the autoexec section in dosbox.conf since it is no longer necessary: imgmount 0 dos622.ima -t floppy -fs none 17. Open 'test.img' with Winimage and copy the 9x folder you copied to your hard drive to the image.

(or you could mount the image with DOSBox and copy the files over but DOSBox may become unresponsive so you may think it froze.using a program like Winimage you will see a progress bar or similar so you know that it's actually working) 18. Execute DosBox and type in 'Boot -l c' to boot your HD image. Go to the directory on the image where you copied Windows and type in 'setup /is' to install Windows. When setup is done copying Windows files it will close DOSBox. (This is normal) 21. Start DOSBox and run the command 'boot -l c' again to resume setup.
When setup is done it will go straight to the Windows desktop and you are done installing! Shut down DOSBox and make a backup of the image so you don't have to reinstall again. INSTALLATION ERRORS DOSBox 0.74 and 7-23-2011 SVN Windows 98SE Will throw up error during 'Updating System Settings'.

POST INSTALL VIDEO AFTER INSTALL IMMEDIATELY BOOT INTO SAFE MODE AND INSTALL THE S3 VIDEO DRIVERS. For some Windows versions you may have video corruption when you boot to the desktop.
This is due to the video driver that Windows 9x is trying to use (it's not compatible with the video card that DOSBox emulates) Change the color depth to 16 colors until you can install a better graphics driver. (This way you'll at least be able to navigate the interface). When installing the S3 drivers use any model from the list. The driver does not care. Other video drivers to try: Use the 'Universal' drivers. AUDIO The audio card emulated by DosBox is a SoundBlaster 16. Windows 95C detects the sound card just fine but the included Windows audio drivers are old dated 8-24-1996.
Attached are SB16 drivers from 3-20-1997 (v4.35.21) and they seem to work fine. The last version of DirectX to include drivers for devices was Direct 6.
After installing DirectX 6 the SB16 may not work anymore. DirectX 6 may update the audio drivers to v4. Which is incompatible with DOSBox. SO DO NOT INSTALL DirectX 6 AND IF YOU DO REINSTALL THE AUDIO DRIVER CD EMULATION Windows 9x under DOSBox does not support CD emulation so you need to use a program like Daemon Tools to emulate a CD-ROM. Use Daemon Tools 3.47. (Requires Windows Installer v2.0) TCP/IP SUPPORT Verify that WinPCap is installed on the host.
Verify that DOSBox.conf is configured correctly INTERNAL D3D GLIDE SUPPORT For Glide/D3D support download yhkwong DOSBox Build: 1. Unzip yhkwong DOSBox Build. Copy your Windows.img to the same directory.
Add 'imgmount 2 x.img -t hdd -fs none -size 512,63,xx,xx to the autoexec section of DOSBox.conf 4. Change glide=true to glide=emu in dosbox.conf 5. Download attached Voodoo 1 drivers. Add Voodoo driver to image. Extract driver to C: TEMP 9. Run 'Add New Hardware' Wizard and then reboot. (It should install 'PCI bus' which is needed for the Voodoo card) 10.
Go into Device Manager and install the Voodoo driver. The above caused Windows to freeze and graphics corruption with Windows 95 and 95a.

S3 driver is really for PCI video card but driver does not require it. 'Voodoo' output in DOSBox console does not mean the game is using Glide. Could be either D3D or Glide. If you see 'Glide:Activated' in DOSBox console then game uses Glide. Only HAL9000 DOSBox build can autodetect image parameters. When not using his build you MUST specify the size parameters. As of DOSBox 0.74 the emulated video card in DOSBox is a S3 Trio64 PCI NOT a Trio64V+ which are not driver compatible.
The drivers included with Windows will appear to work but will cause issues. Need verification on model of emulated video card. MSDOS.SYS modification 2GB image template uses 512, The first always has to be 512 (should be omitted imo), the second can't be more than 63, the third is limited to 255 and the 4th to 1023. These are the old BIOS limits DOSBox also implements. To get disks larger than 500MB the number of heads has to be increased.
