Is it possible to run a localized (Polish) version of WfW 3.11 on DOSBox? I followed the guide, but after every start Windows launches a wizard to add Codepage 852 support...

Are you using some keyb? Which?

Try forcing codepage 437 if so, the 852 is some special fdos one that includes
the euro sign or something, so wfw might not be able to cope with that.

852 is the Polish codepage and AFAIK the Polish version of WfW wants to use it. I'll play with mode to set it before Windows launch, maybe it helps.
