As I said, I have posted it a few days ago in technical - but there was no reply there, so I decided to try my luck in Troubleshooting. Yes, BOCHS is supposed to emulate entire X86 PC, not unlike DosBox really, but not the same - it's closer to Virtual PC, since it also emulates hard drives (as disk images) and requires an actual opsys installation. |

| The Niles | Since this is software related I think we can let this stay here although I would not have moved this if it was posted in technical stuff either. | |

| Virgil | Bochs is emulator of x86 machine ,also suitable for linux(and maybe other systems - i don't remember) more complex , than dosbox , but much harder to set up . | |

Posted that in Technical, but got no reply. Trying here... Convinced by a few people here (including Data), I tried to run Bochs on my PC. Going through all the settings and making it boot from CD-Rom took me a few hours. After starting the damn thing with Win98 Boot CD, I end up with the following: 00017694391i[CPU ] BxError: instruction with op1=0xff 00017694391i[CPU ] mod was 40, nnn was 7, rm was 3 00017694391i[CPU ] WARNING: Encountered an unknown instruction (signalling illegal instruction) This just keeps repeating until BOCHS is closed. Any idea on what might be happening? I booted the thing from a DOS 7.1 bootdisk and it worked properly... PS. The following was Bochsrc.txt I used: Quote:
