Help locating emulator for PPC

I have been trying to locate the bochs X86 emulator that was ported over to Pocket PC. It was located at mamaich.kasone.com but the site has been down. Can anyone point me to a download for this app? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hi
Try some p2p net.
You should get PocketDOS (which emulates 0x86) and then google for bochs 486 plugin.
have fun
i think what ur looking for is located here, scrol down:

I am wanting to try to get windows 95/98/98se as well as a fiew distros of linux running on my PPC. I was under the impression that only the bochs x86 emulator for PPC was the only one that has been able to do this. Is there another way?
Wow..
You expect much from your PPC
I don't think it's possible.
But you may try...
Dowload pocketDOS and then search for bochs 4x86 emulator plugin.
You'll have an intel 486 processor support but memory simulation is still crappy in pocketdos. You probably won't run anything more than DOS and simple DOS programs. (Even Windows 3.11 won't install because of 320x240 screen).
I don't think it's possible to run anything that uses CPU protected mode (windows / linux).
My best adventure with pocketdos was running norton commander and my x86 assembler programs.
Try it.
have fun

Porting software to run on WM6

I'm not even sure this is possible and I'm in no way tech savvy enough to do it on my own but I'll at least ask.
I have a truck that i race alot and it has some fuel management software to set up fuel maps, timing, etc... I have an old laptop that i keep around the house solely for this vehicle tuning. I was wondering how/if i can run the software on my phone for 3 reasons..1 - i can give the wife the laptop, 2 - it would eliminate the need for the laptop in the truck, 3 - it would just be pretty damn cool.
The software is very basic so i think the phone could handle it, it's just a matter of getting it to the phone.
Any tips would be appreciated, or you can crash my dreams and tell me to move on if it's not possible.
Thanks
It depends on what OS your app was written for. If it is a DOS program then your are in luck.
You can use an emulator like Pocket DOS and run the program "as is" on your PPC (unless it has to connect to some special hardware or something).
If it is a windows app then to port it you would need the source code. Otherwise there are only two things you can do:
a) Rewrite the whole thing from scratch.
b) Search for an app for PPC that does the same thing or similar, chances are it already exists and may even be freeware.
depending on the application complication level... if it's only calculating som data, maybe (providing you know the rules it uses) it would be easy to prepare excel spreadsheet? Excel is capable of some really cool calculations. believe me ;]

[Refresh thread] - x86 emulators

Hello. This question has been asked here already long time ago so the answers might have been outdated. So I'll ask again:
What is the dos/x86 emulator to use on PPC?
I tried pocketdos on different confs but it did not reach my goal
I am trying to run a dos based app that is also an emulator - TOSbox. It emulates the old Atari desktop computer (not the game console). And I couldn't get it to run inside pocketdos

Android emulator for the android platform.

So there are plenty of ways to emulate Android on other platforms like PC for example. And there are plenty of emulators for the Android platform from anything from DOS emulator to ps2. But I am looking for a way to run android as a virtual machine within Android. So many bootloaders are locked now and it is becoming harder to root devices. It would be cool to have root in the virtual machine but not the hosting android. It would be like psudo-root (sudo lol). Anyone have any feedback? And I apologise in advance. I am a noob. Please excuse any offence. Thanks

iOS 3+ or Windows Mobile emulator for Windows?

I am looking for REAL emulator (NOT simulator) that can run iOS 3 or Windows Mobile 2003 apps on Windows.
Yes, I already did digging in google, finding a lot lists of "THE BEST TOP EMULATORS", but they are just fake articles with wrong information just to get visitors and earnings on their ads.
Years ago, I had Windows Mobile 2003 SE device from HTC.
I bought a game for it and played it a lot.
After years, I wanted to play it again, but it was only released for Windows Mobile (pre Windows Phone 7) and iOS 3+ devices.
Since I changed phone long time ago and I am not interested in having iPhone, I would like to play this game on Windows by using emulator.
The game title is Orions The Legend Of Wizards (or Orions 2 The Deckmasters).
I enjoyed it a lot, and I did not find any TCG or CCG similar in gameplay to it (I am already familiar with Magic The Gathering and others, but they are completely different in mechanics).
Windows Mobile.
Yes, I know there is Microsoft Device Emulator 3.
I downloaded it from official website with official OS images, but I have x64 bit operating system and I am getting the same error like other people on internet: "there are not seven pairs of xpvcom in system".
Yes, I downloaded x64 version of emulator and tried reinstall XPVCom solution which does not work like for other people too.
Yes, I read about using Virtual PC solution, so installing VPC, installing 32-bit OS in it, to use emulator in emulator - like others said, this is ridiculous and I am not going to do that.
Any other solutions?
iOS 3+.
Yes, there is a lot software, but they are not emulators like it is claimed, they are just similators.
I am looking for real emulator that is able to run iOS app.
Any solutions?
I know this forum is full of real geeks who understand technical topics very well.
Thanks for any help.
