FreeDOS and Windows 3.11 - Protected mode error? - posted in DOS/PDA/Other: When trying to boot into 3.11 using FreeDOS, it gives me an error: 'Cannot run Windows while the currently installed. Download xcode 11 for windows. Windows is started as an application program, and can be terminated at any time, returning the user to the MS-DOS prompt. MS-DOS also provides device drivers for certain tasks such as CD-ROM or network access, specifically remote disk drive or remote printer access; these drivers run in real mode.

Dos 3.3 Download
Hi,I just found out that Windows 3.11 runs on FreeDOS 1.0 (FreeCom 0.84-
pre2) if you add InDOSPolling=true to [386Enh] in system.ini and if
you run SYSTEMDOSX.EXE to start Windows instead of WIN.COM. Icloud for windows 7.11 download. That is
so cool!

Dos 3.1
Does anyone know why it works and why WIN.COM prints a message about
it being an invalid MS-DOS version? Apparantly FreeDOS is able to fool
WIN.COM, but win.com starts WIN386.EXE normally and that is the
program that prints the MS-DOS version bad message.

Windows 3.1 Freedos
The only catch is you can not run a DOS prompt from within Windows--
prints an error about not being able to find WINOLDAP.MOD.

I am thinking of modifying FreeDOS to make it more compatible with
Windows 3.11. I think DOSX.EXE stats Windows 3.11 in Standard Mode.
Yes, I know that's impossible, I just did it though. Maybe I'm
wrong..

I wrote my own disassembler (GPL) you can check out here:
http://code.google.com/p/vm64dec/downloads/list -- it dosn't run in
DOS or anything but could help identify what changes to FreeDOS are
needed to make Windows 3.11 run via WIN.COM, e.g. WIN386.EXE, so we
can run Command Prompts form Windows.

I'm armed with my own disassembler and BOCHS, which I can modify to
follow indirect jumps/calls etc. Is anyone else out there interested
in seeing Windows 3.11 run in Enhanced mode with MS-DOS Prompt support
on FreeDOS ?
