Bosch Windows Xp Img Download
Yes Virginia, you can run Windows XP on your Android device. What once took cutting edge hardware to boot, can now work on your typical Android smartphone. Don’t get too excited though, this will not replace your desktop pc any time soon. The emulation speed is unbearably slow, and you lack any sort of network connectivity. So how does this work? One word, Bochs. Bochs is an app that can emulate practically any 32 bit operating system. Bochs was designed to run legacy operating systems such as Windows DOS and Windows 3, definitely not Windows XP. Generally anything higher than Windows 95 becomes a hit or miss as far as usability. The bottom line is that you’re about to perform something that might not work on your device, and if it does, it has no practically use to it. Are you excited yet?
The most relevant program for Windows xp img is Windows 7 Pro x86 x64 ISO. Get a free download for Operating systems software in the specialized download selection.
Okay now that the introduction is out of the way, let’s get down to business. Of course, you will first need to have a Windows XP iso file. Now, if you’re crafty enough, you can use a program called Windows builder to decrease it to 100MB in size. This is what I did to get Windows XP running on Android wear. I am not going to cover that here because it will take too long, but just know that it is also an option. We are going to use Qemu manager to install Windows XP. Unlike virtual box, Qemu is able to better handle raw image files that we can transfer to Bochs on Android. So here’s how to run Windows XP on Android.
What You Will Need:
- Windows XP ISO
Step 1: Installing Windows XP to Disk Image
Open up Qemu manager and create a new virtual machine. Name it whatever you like and click next.
Allocate it however much ram that you’re willing to spare. This is only for your pc and has nothing to do with the amount of ram 0n your Android device. Finally, select the option, do not use a virtual disk image. Click finish.
Next go to the drives tab and select hard drive 0. Then locate the blank disk image that you downloaded. You might need to make sure that all files are selected in order to see it.
Next, select CD ROM and locate your Windows XP ISO file.
Finally, select the green arrow to start the VM. From this point, just go through the process of installing Windows XP like you would on any normal computer.
Step 2: Transferring
After the installation completes, extract the SDL zip. Transfer the blank disk image (that is no longer “blank” because you just installed Windows XP to it) and put it inside the SDL folder. Rename the blank disk image to c.
Then open up the bochsrc text file. Where you see the word “c.img” change it to just “c”. Save and close it.

Install the boch apk to your Android device. Then launch it. It should detect the Windows XP image and boot right into Windows XP. Remember, this is going to be slow! You might have to wait as much as 10 minutes until you actually get to the Windows XP desktop screen.
