You can install windows 98 with 8MB of ram if you use the "nm" flag at the setupDSx86 version 0.30 released! This is a major update, fulfilling the competition requirements of a significant update. All prior versions of DSx86 have only emulated a 80186 processor, but this is the first version that emulates a 80286 processor, including protected mode features!
When running Windows 3.00a in DSi mode, you will have over 8MB of RAM available, which should allow DSx86 to run many 16-bit Windows games and other programs.
You can download it at L or if it gets hosted/mirrored here, that is fine by me as well.

Application generals should be exempt from necro rule, as it's pretty unlikely that the software itself will die. I'd rather this thread be necro'd than have multiple threads about one application, asking/answering one question.dude, stop necrobumping, pay attention to the dates
I mean, the thread was dead for 6 years, I'd bet that not many people used this program (if at all) during most of that time...it's pretty unlikely that the software itself will die.
I am just NOW about to wake the 286 power in my DS lite....I mean, the thread was dead for 6 years, I'd bet that not many people used this program (if at all) during most of that time...
Didn't find it very usefull. The problem is a small resolution of NDS screens. You can't fit it pixel to pixel. Yes, it was fun to launch some old quests, but can't say it was playable.I am just NOW about to wake the 286 power in my DS lite....
I am playing Space Quest 2 and it’s playable so far. Possibly the next chapter (vga, mouse) are difficult to play...Didn't find it very usefull. The problem is a small resolution of NDS screens.
Absolutely yes! I have much respect for him/his work! Thumbs up!!!Anyway Pate made a great job to program this.
