Bochs Logo


Ever wanted to run Windows CE on your Bochs PSP x86 emulator?  Well it's easier than you think, and yota from our forums has figured it out.

Here are the steps to make the Bochs Image:

1 - Download image for Virtual PC from here.

2 - Create a new image disk in Boch like for the Win95 prototype (http://forums.qj.net/f-psp-homebrew-...ighlight=win95)

3 - Like for Win95, run FDISK and FORMAT (use /S to make it bootable)

4 - Download the latest WinImage and install it

5 - Open the WinCE image you downloaded in 1 with WinImage and extract all the files into a temp folder. Delete Command.com file in the temp folder.

6 - Close Bochs, open the Bosch image with WinImage and Inject all the files from the temp folder into the Bochs image (except Command.com that was deleted previously).

7 - Change the memory allocation in the bochsrc.bxrc from 8 to 32 megs (I think "this" is the main problem for running on the PSP)

8 - Boot the Bochs image from the C: drive with Bochs. You will have a warning, just continue the emulation. That's it, WinCE should be loaded...

9 - Change the bochsrc.bxrc file according to the Win95 but with 32 megs and copy the image to the PSP

See? It's as easy as that.  Now, go have fun with Windows CE on your PSP :D

WINDOWS CE stand for Windows Corporate Edition

 7.  » No

No it doesn't, CE stands for Consumer Electronics... Windows CE was developed as a cut down version, a lookalike to the real Windows, which can be put on to electronic devices made by other companies. Say they're not powerful enough to load the full Windows, they'll license the Consumer Electronics version.

 14.  » It should work.

I tried it in bochs in Linux. There shouldn't be any functional differences. It worked.
If in doubt, go to the bochs wiki and read it. It will answer any residual questions.
