Installation

For standard install:

2. Open Settings > Personal > Buttons and map a button on your phone for '<Input Pannel>'.

For alternate install (to Strorage Card):
1. Make sure your Storage Card has at least 100mb of free space.
2. Extract the 'win95.bin.zip' file. Copy the BIN file inside to the root of your Storage Card.
3. Open the EXE and follow the install instructions.
4. After the install is done, find out the name of your memory card (it could be Storage Card, SD Card, CF Slot, etc.)
5. Open the file 'boschrc.txt' in the root of your device with Word Mobile. Click Menu > Edit > Find/Replace.
6. Click 'Replace...'. In the first box type 'Storage Card'. In the other type the name of your card (the one that you found out earlier).
7. Save the file. Make sure you choose to keep the current format. Do NOT save it as a word document.
8. Open Settings > Personal > Buttons and map a button on your phone for '<Input Pannel>'.

Use After Installation
- If you did an alternate install, insert your Memory Card.
- Click Start > Programs > Windows 95.
- Give the app a minute to start up. If you get a message that there is not enough memory, free up as much as you can.
- Eventualy, you will see the Windows 95 boot screen. You can make the app go fullscreen by pressing the 'Fn' button on VGAKey and pressing one of the 'F' keys (not sure which one).
- You might have to run 'ScanDisk' the first time you start. Let it quickly scan your PDA.
- In fullscreen mode, press the button theat you assigned to <Input Panel> to bring up the keyboard.
- The mouse might not work properly on your device. Use the arrow buttons on your PDA to move it, or try draging the cursor instead of tapping. Remember, Windows 95 was never programmed for touch screens.
Press F12 on VGAKEY for fullscreen, F5 For Mouse.

This is cool....

Re: RUN windows 95 on your TP2.. (here)
 

Works but slow and on our TP2's the VGA key keyboard is brutally small. Thanks though. Here are a couple of screenshots!

that's kinda cool

Re: RUN windows 95 on your TP2.. (here)
 

Will it run XP ?

Re: RUN windows 95 on your TP2.. (here)
 

I have heard some that are running 98 on their TP2... but have not heard of anyone with xp...

Re: RUN windows 95 on your TP2.. (here)
 

this is actually pretty neat. got it up and running but now what to do with it? lol i guess it's cool just to have and show people.

anyone else done this though? i ask because after i was playing around i rebooted my phone and it won't boot past the first htc splash screen. probably one of the cabs i imagine? oh well, time for hard reset

Re: RUN windows 95 on your TP2.. (here)
 

Hard reset? Awe... bummer. It is cool that you got it running though! Good job! =]

Re: RUN windows 95 on your TP2.. (here)
 

thanks! and yeah hard reset, it's no biggie.

the method above in the first post wasn't working for me, so i found another thread on xda and followed those instructions


found out it was pocketconsole cab that was making my phone lock on boot.

i'm still toying around with it to find what works best but i still think this is awesome.

Re: RUN windows 95 on your TP2.. (here)
 

you should be able to do XP... if i remember right, 100mb is the limit for it to be able to run... if you can compress the IMG to under or around that limit, then any Windows OS should run... even WIN7, though i doubt WIN7 and Vista can be compressed this much..
