Help installing .exe programs on my A1200?!

[fadingshadow95]

Does anyone know how to install .exe programs on an A1200? I used the forum search and came up without an answer. Can anybody please help me?

No way man.

[fadingshadow95]

no way as in it's impossible? or you just arent sure of a way? is there like a windows emulator i could run?

[dedraks]

Run .exe apps directly on ming is impossible.
Run the exe inside an emulator is possible in teory. But it's unusable because it's so slow.

[fadingshadow95]

too slow as in it wont load or it may take a while? because i have time to wait lol, the program doesnt take much memory to run

search for dosbox in this thread

so with dosbox I can run my program or are your suggesting that I use dosbox to install windows and have it run my program?

I'll try to end this, you CAN'T natively run .exe programs, if you emulate DOS, you can do whatever DOS allows you to do in such a limited hardware (such as install win3.1) but that will not run any modern .exe because win3.1 dates back more than a decade, so, NO, you CAN'T run .exes on Ming.

EDIT: Removed the "End of story" part cause it sounds rude, and that was not the point...

Well instead of posting a new topic on this forum you could just think a bit with your own head. Sorry If this sounds rude but this is the stupidest question I've ever seen on this forum...
