I run DosBox on my Android tablet, old nice exe-programs. Works fine!
Is it possible to run (an old) Windows version in DosBox? i.e. run "Windows on Android"...?
If so - where can I find old Windows executable files, I mean an old Windows version (floppy disk version?).
If so - then I can run Windows on my Android..!
Also this (for Win3.x):
Windows 3.1x DOSBox Guide
Whereas it is said that Win9x stability is not ideal, I have had no problems running Win3.11 in DOSBox MegaBuild, and on WinXP even with working parallel port passthrough (using AllowIO). I needed it to run a Win3.x-specific application that wouldn't run on anything newer, plus required one of those oldschool "copyright protection" plugs to be attached to the parallel port.

Note that that is an unofficial port of DOSBox. Support for it needs to directed to the people from whom you purchased it. Also, this forum is for Windows games, not DOSBox.

Yes.
eBay/Amazon/thrift stores.
Depends on the version. Win95 is buggy and unstable but Win3.1 will be fine.
