Hey all,


I've been recently been trying to get Bochs to run on the PSP, and then get Windows 3.1 to run (eventually).
But i tried to boot the DLXLinux Demo, but no go. I edited the config file, still no. I dont even get the Bochs BIOS. I start the game, i see the mem stck inicator glowning, black screen, returns to XMB. Any suggestions?

Also, my Firmware is 3.40 OE-A with homebrew running in 1.5 kernel.

PS. My 1st post here at DCEmu!


(could a mod move this to the correct forum please thanks)

get hold of Dosbox PSP. (caution: this is maybe the most interesting
but least user friendly of the PSP emus).
DCemu member Murdock has posted a useful guide including a section on win3.1.

That's hectic stuff.
Perhaps I should've suggested 'Murdock's recent dcemu posts' for the guide link.
I've done the search. here's the link.

Just wanted to ask, how's the speed etc. I saw a video of Windows 95 on the PSP via Youtube and it looked really slow, is it any better using Dosbox, and would it be moderately fast using 3.1?

EDIT: HAHAHAHAHA.... murdock you funny individual, looks like murdock hates the forum users at ps2dev so thats why he deleted his tutorial

Seems my earlier caution was quite apt.
thx Dark Heart - thats compulsive reading.It really livelied up an otherwise dull day, I skipped a lot of the
technical detail in pages 1-22 tho!
I've searched again. Theres a link to an earlier version of the guide here.
No win31 ,but it looks like the file's still there.
