Ive tested Windows 1.0 by running it from the floppy and not installing and with
VER SET 3 30
It will run without problem. If you have mounted a folder , a CD or a floppy drive prior to loading Windows 1, WIN 1 will be able to see that folder!. Its great for people that want to run Win 1.0 from the floppy. You can also save your stuff on the floppy itself or on one of the mounted folder |

Looping Win 1.0x setup is not a DOSBOX fault, it must be run from floppies... but even if you manage to install it somehow it won't run - you'll see broken splash screen and after a while a green desktop, but nothing more. It seems to be a DOS emulation bug, because when put on a bootable floppy image together with a DOS 3.30 it runs just fine under DOSBOX 0.72.
Newer versions of Windows (2.x, 3.x) installs and runs flawlessly on DOSBOX emulated DOS. |

If you have an old PC that runs DOS, you can install Windows 1 on it and then copy the Windows folder whole onto a USB or zip drive or whatever you portable drive will work on it, and then simply copy it into your Dosbox folder. I've done this with every version up to 3.1 - tried it with 3.11 and it ran but no icons appeared. But for all versions 1 and 2 it works a treat. If you don't have any way of copying the folder from the old pc, simply remove the hard drive and install it as a slave or via a device such as this: http://www.usbnow.co.uk/p52/USB_2.0_IDE_&_SATA_Cable_(with_Power_Supply)/product_info.html?gclid=CPKymIv_srECFUcKtAod_GgAkQ

I know this is an old post but I did just install Windows 1.03 following dk82's instructions. I think an important additional note is that every time you switch disk and before running the command in Windows press Ctrl-F4. |

I've successfully installed Windows 1.00, 1.01, 1.02, 1.03, and 1.04 on DOSBox 0.74.
When prompted for an install path, press enter (to accept default of c:windows) THEN press Ctrl-F4 to refresh the disk cache. This is a necessary step (due to DOSBox handling of mounted drives) for the installer to recognize that the directory was created.
You must select graphics option 5 (EGA) if you want color.
BE sure to set your DOS version to 3.3 (ver set 3 30 -- note the space between 3 and 30!) or you'll receive memory errors when attempting to run any program within Windows 1.x. |

Just loops back to the first screen. Shame too, I wanted to see what Windows 1.01 looked like...and not from screenshots.
Tested on Ubuntu 10.04 x86_64 system, DOSBox 0.73. |

When attempting install, the setup program continuously loops back to the first screen, preventing any progress from being made. |
