Can anyone advise whether the Psion 2 Emulator software will run in DOSBox on a Windows 10 64-bit PC. I cannot get it to work.

The emulator software can be downloaded from

Yes, the emulator software works in DOSBox 0.74-2 and SVN with default settings; however, it needs ROM images for the emulated device.

You can find both the emulator software and the ROM images on the author's website via the Web Archive: http://web.archive.org/web/19990427201447/htt … onorg/index.htm

The emulator author claims the device manufacturer gave permission for the ROM images to be distributed. Whether or not that is true, or still true today, is not certain -- use the ROM images at your own discretion.

Thank you ripsaw8080. I will give it a try but it might be a week or two. I am always amazed by how helpful people are.

I have installed DOSBox and the Psion emulator worked fine. Thank you for your reply.
