Run Tiny Windows EXE on Windows Mobile?

I have a VERY small EXE file, about 200 or 300KB. It runs on Windows, and will not run on my device obviously since it was not compiled for Windows Mobile.
I do not have the ability to recompile it, so is there a way to make a stand-alone windows EXE run on Windows Mobile? Like a compatibility app/emulator I can install on Windows Mobile to allow it to run?
Thanks

1) If it is DOS application, use DOSBOX emulator.
2) You can boot Win 95 in emuator, but it is pretty inconvenient (and not very easy to do). And many of today's apps won't run in Win 95 neither.
3) Get a source code and recompile it
PS: Size doesn't matter

i have one win aplication., but cant install win95 emulator.. something is wrong... program is 150kb., but must be runed from win...

forget about it and i am serious.
or do what CommZ said:

Hey, first time posting to XDA. I am curious about this as well. Allthough my idea is not as small, but as you said size doesnt matter I would love to be able to run rpg maker 2000 games on my mobile device "Axim X51V with lennysh 11 rom on it". I'm not talking about building games, just being able to run the rpg_rt runtime file so i can play games on it. Don't point me to smokingfish's site as I can't imagine it bieng able to play rpgmaker 2000 games as it seems like it was all a project on its own. This idea has me almost interested enough to learn some programming. Do you think it would be possible? Would it be a huge undertaking to someone who knew what they were doing?
Games to play would be.
1. Three the Hard Way
2. Laxius Power series
3. Final Fantasy Endless Nova

[Q] Win XP on Transformer prime

Hi
I've seen a few threads about running win 95 and even win 98 on certain android devices.
What l was wondering was is it possible to run win xp on a high powered device such as the transformer prime?
I've heard that some people have done it on HTC Evo, but haven't heard or sen any transformer / tegra based tablets doing the same thing...
Now I'm no programmer / coder of any sorts so my understanding in this field is somewhat basic.
In short l was wondering has anyone attempted / succeeded?
I truly apologise if there is a thread about this somewhere already. I've been browsing the web, but not much luck in finding user friendly info.
don't hate me for beeing a noob...
Kind regards
DeboX

There are different facets to this:
1) Native (installing beside/over android) - this isn't possible as Windows XP or Vista or 7 have not been released for the ARM architecture (which is what most android devices, including tegra are). However, windows has said that they are releasing Windows 8 for ARM, so it might be possible to install that natively on the Transformer.
2) Virtualized - this could be possible, you'd just need something like Virtualbox, but for android that would allow you to create/host virtual machines. I currently don't know of anything that will allow you to do this with XP, and the ones that let you run 95/98 are painfully slow, even on the transformer / prime
3) splashtop - this might be your best bet, get Virtualbox on one of your desktop/laptops and install XP on that, then install Splashtop on the virtual machine. You can then either use ASUS MyCloud of Splashtop Remote HD to access it, and it will even reroute audio from the VM to the tablet. This is what i do for Win 7
hope this helps

Well, l have seen a few projects using boch and QEMU to setup a vm centred around win 98 and heard of one that is trying to setup xp, but performance is a question.
The splashtop idea is good, but it requires internet access , which is an issue....

Yeah, forgot to mention that
Splashtop is what i use though... I use it to watch blurays on my TF101, works like a charm, even from the other side of the world though

Evo 3D owners most likely lucked out in terms of the proprietary graphics tech behind the screen matching up with the XP spec. Windows bears no direct relation to Android or Linux, as such there's more that needs to be rendered independent of the CPU. XORG, the main window rendering component of most linux UIs, is able to piggyback off the usual Terminal Emulator in Android. While the Evo 3D/Milestone 2 Global Windows exploit is pretty great in the eyes of this DOS nerd, it's not the only way. I routinely run Backtrack5 (Ubuntu based :angel and I've made some progress getting WINE terminal up and running therein, so EXEs and MSIs shouldn't be far behind.

[Q] Is it possible to emulate Deus Ex 1 on Android (Nexus 5)

I know up front that I'm probably going to get some 'you're a super noob' responses on this, but just entertain me. Deus Ex 1 is probably my favorite game of all time, and I know you can emulate other games (I have Zelda Ocarina of Time on a N 64 emulator), but has anyone tried to emulate PC games from around the 1999/2000 era? If you can't, is it a hardware limitation, or has no one just written any emulators for PC games with mobile OSs in mind? Call me a wishful thinker, but I just want to know if it would be possible and sorry for asking such a silly question. Also, no I didn't get my phone to play games, this idea just popped into my head. Thanks.

I would love to see this happen

I wouldn't ever imagine there to be a PC emulator. Consoles just play a game from disk so emulation is simple. PC games install and we don't have a window registry environment here.

Wine is able to run Deus Ex in Linux distributions, and Android runs the Linux kernel. There was talk of bringing Wine to android about a year ago but nothing seems to have materialized.
That said, Deus Ex is available on OnLive, so you could always go that route. Or use Kainy.

I think we're years off a successful wine implementation. That's not the only challenge either. What about controls?

There is a game from 1998 which is being ported to android - Half life. It runs on a custom build of GoldSRC engine called Xash3D.

Thats right, and thers also possible to run games like Diablo 2 or Heroes 3 on droid device, so why not DX1? It would be awesome.

Original DeusEx on Android
Original Half-Life port has been Successfully Implemented on the Android Platform as of this Current Writing! I already have it Running on my Nexus7 Tablet.
Now Speaking of Tablets, I now have Shield K1 Tablet from Amazon ($199) which is Pretty Good. I was thinking about playing with a Bluetooth Keyboard - Either Physical, or Virtually like a Phone. That would leave the Screen Clutter Free so you could enjoy the Games Visuals. If Half-Life 1 is possible, Certainly Original or Even the New Revision Mod for The Game Should be Feasible. What do you think? I use my phone for Lots of Stuff these days, why not with a Virtual Keyboard via Bluetooth like BluezIME? That Would be GREAT!!!:laugh:

Actually, if you'df like to play particularly 1998 full version of Deus Ex PC game as is on your Android mobile device, there is a simple way. Use ExaGear Strategies app and this instruction to set up and play this title - https://eltechs.com/deus-ex-pc-game-on-android/

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.
