Fixes
Installation:
This version of Windows needs special requirements or it doesn't install, specifically the Timer and Bus/Serial mouse, it isn't emulated/virtualized by Virtual PC or VMware.
The use of PCem v0.3 configured with a IBM XT at 16 MHz is recommended.
Once configured, boot the Machine with a MS-DOS 2.1 Bootdisk and format the HD.
Copy the
install.bat to C:\ then run it and follow the instructions.
Reboot
After the installation you can just start windows by typing
MSWIN but after you have rebooted, the PATH is gone, to start it type:
path C:\windows\bin and then go to
C:\windows\test and run
MSWIN.
