Windows 3.1 on Wii


Surprised there isn't a thread on this. It's completely real, as far as I can tell. I got it to install on my wii, but I can't run it =/

Hopefully there will be 95 and maybe even 98 (if the wii is capable?) running.

Its real, but the problem is that the Wii has such a low end processor that anything higher than 3.1 is very unlikely.

The Wii cant even run video files using the H264 codec because it would be too processor intensive

We could make one of the flash operating systems like the ones for psp. Somewhat useless but it would kill time.

Re: Windows 3.1 on Wii

Anyone know how to actually get this to run? Like I previously stated, I ran the setup, but it doesn't work after that. I even installed it on a real computer with DOSBox and then copied the files to my sd card. Still no luck =/ It just stays at a black screen.

Yeah, i watched a guy booting Windows 95, the boot menu lasted 7min, and then it took another minute and a half to load up the start bar.
