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 This question has been asked here already long time ago so the answers might have been outdated.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

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:
http://www.pocketdos.com/download.htm#Other
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
Guys and gals, don’t forget to check out my brand new, MS-DOS / x86 emulation-related article at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1276884
(Sorry for flooding – IMHO, this article certainly deserves attention because it answers ALL the questions a Windows Mobile user may want to EVER ask about emulating MS-DOS. Make sure you read it!)
Anyone know a cmd.exe (Command Line, Console) for this device??
i tried PocketConsole and PocketCMD but dont run in this (run only in PocketPC).
I want use to run ruby apps.
total commander
no, no total commander
I need a console as MS-DOS of Windows!!!!.
pocketdos
maybe
Forgive me if I'm totally mistaken, but, wouldn't TeraTerm Pro(the software we use to format binfs) act like CMD?

Is like a emulator or virtual machine for MS-DOS, but i dont need it.
I need run a native WinCE Console application.
In PocketPC is possible using PocketCMD and PocketConsole, see in here: http://andryshuzain.com/journal/ruby-on-windows-mobile-5
But i dont know how to run a console in WM5/WM6 Smartphone.
This the application:
http://uema2.s8.xrea.com/ruby-mswince/archive/ruby-1.8.6-armv4i-wm5-mswince070531.zip
Maybe you upgrade to WM6Pro first, then install PPC application on Tornado.
www.pocketdos.com have "PocketDOS Console Device Driver source code (example of use of PocketDOS API)" sources, if you compile it i think you get console for WindowsCE and smartphone. They in forum say that console work on smartphone but i dont find any downloads for compiled version.
http://www.pocketdos.com/download.htm
Best regards
PocketDOS works on Smartphone (PocketDOS.arm_400sp.CAB), and also search for spvDOSBox
Also, when you upgrade to 6.1Pro RC5 by Kamikaze, as I wrote earlier, you get Pocket CMD builtin.
long time ago (like in the 2002) i tried some software like Pocketdos or some like that, i know theres a pc ol game emulator too, but this days, i dont know if there a good pc emulator, to run dos, linux or eve windows 9X, any ideas? regards
I'm afraid PockedDOS is as close as you'll get to a "PC" emulator on your PPC. Here is the link:

Tried out DOSBox for PPC?

Gona take a look of both... but i am thinking the emulation of anything on my kaiser its very limited, i try nop snes emulator with CA 3d drivers and frame skip like 7 and its very slow, in PocketDOS i found this:
Code:
My application works under PocketDOS but it is just too slow to be usable. Is there any solution?
PocketDOS emulates an 80186 processor in software. On a 206Mhz ARM processor, it reaches the equivalent speed of a 20Mhz 80186 (or 10Mhz 80386) processor. There is no way to make it go faster at present, neither is there likely to be much improvement in the speed of the emulation in the forseeable future. The only option available to increase the speed of your application is to port the application to Windows CE and compile it for the type of processor used in your device. :eek:
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.
I need an Android emulator to run this old game called 'Lair Defense: Dungeon'. I'm not into android gaming but just played this one a lot. I was using a Samsung Galaxy Gio with Android 2.3 Gingerbread so it's really old and the game It's not been updated for years so It just doesn't run on new android phones and even the android emulators that I tried can't run it because they are based on newer android versions. Anyone can tell me an emulator capable of running the game? The game link on the play store:
Lair Defense: Dungeon - Apps on Google Play
Amazing strategic/arcade tower defense!

You could install android studio.
The emulator in it can use any android image even android 2.3
Run apps on the Android Emulator | Android Studio | Android Developers
The Android Emulator simulates Android devices on your computer so that you can test your app on a variety of devices and Android API levels without needing to have each physical device.

Thanks for the suggestion. I really need another option because that's the only one I found and I've tried really hard to run Android Studio but when I try to run a device it always crashes. Tried in Windows and Linux, lost some good hours on reading and configurations but the result is always the same: "The emulator process for... was killed". It's insane how hard is even just run that thing.
Does your pc have enough RAM? Reduce RAM allocation

Yes, 16GB . Was trying with the default:1280MB. Just tried using 1024MB same results.

The app in question is built to run on ARM devices only, hence it won't run on any X86 based Android emulator unless the Android image used by emulator contains the ARM-translator ( read: Intel Houdini ) and has Native Bridge enabled.

Thanks for the info. I'll check it but I'm not a dev. so I'm really at the limits of my capabilities here. It's sad but I guess it's a lost cause. Anyway, there are a lot of people who would like to play it again. If someone wants to buy and update the game or do something. Thanks
So I solved the "The emulator process for... was killed" problem. Tried a lot more of android 2.3 images and changing more configurations. It starts now, but I can't see the android starting. The operating system doesn't start or show up at all. What could be the problem now?
Okay, I understand now how this works. I only can run x86 images. Those work well when I start but the ARM images don't start. Guess it's the normal thing cause I'm using a computer CPU and ARM stuff is mobile stuff. Now, how can I know if the x86 android images contain the ARM-translator ( read: Intel Houdini ) and has Native Bridge enabled?

ARM emulators are made to emulate ARM CPUs on x86/64 computers. If they don't work it's not because your PC is not ARM, but for other reasons.
Anyway, Android Studio does not allow me to download old emulators for Android 2.3!
How is it possible that you can?
Which Android Studio version are you using?
Can you still download them?

There is this HowTo video for running Android 1.6 inside VirtualBox -- maybe that's what you need:
