I have run Windows98 on my Nokia C5-03 with S60 DOSBOX, but it was so slow that we can't run any software. I want to run IE on my C5-03. Could I run IE 5-6 with dosbox? I know IE doesn't a DOS app. but could we run it?
If I have mistakes in article, sorry for bad English. English isn't my main language. If not, please tell me 😁

That's because running Windows 98 in DOSBox is not supported and generally a terrible idea.

You can probably run the 16-bit version of IE 5 in Windows 3.1 in DOSBox. I cannot comprehend why you would want to do this.
Phones aren't even fast enough to handle an emulated x86 running Windows 9X running IE. You're better off not wasting your time for some impractical unsupported nostalgic novelty of browsing the web on your phone with desktop browsers
Actually, I have Opera Mobile / Mini; UC Browser, BrowserNG (Phone's original browser) and Bolt Browser (HTML Support for S60). But I want to try a real desktop browser. Just nostalgie 😁 And I want to run IE without Windows, and it was really a terrible idea.
Whatever, I will ask one more thing: If dosbox can run every dos application; can I run freedos and then run dos2unix for get Linux on my phone?

Dosbox isn't supposed to run 'every dos application'
it's supposed to run games
games
Operating systems with the illusion of being functional is a side effect from booting images. DOSBox does not support using Windows 9x or Linux within the emulator, and you're fooling yourself if you think it does.
OK, than I will ask you my last question:
I have seen Need for Speed (for dosbox) on Turkish forums, and it needs a virtual keyboard. In phone, I have got a virtual keyboard app. but it can't work on DOSBox. If DOSBox has a virtual keyboard (I have seen on videos, but i didnt find) where is it or how can I get it? If there's no virtual keyboard, I have to create a keymap. 😢

Dunno if this will actually work on your phone, but you can give it a try.

Thanks 😀 Its working 🙄

Your sig is annoying. Get rid of it.

Or at least make it smaller.

Isn't dos2unix just a converter for text files?

Maybe the version for lamers. I have seen the real dos2unix on Turkish forums, it patches any known version of DOS and converts it to a fully-functional UNIX-based OS of your choice.
Confirmed to work on a real MS-DOS v3.10 5.25" floppy, patched to the latest Ubuntu release and running stable on original PC/AT (I have seen on videos, but i didnt find).
Suuuure. This magic tool probably also allows one to run Crysis on a mobile phone.
But he as SEEN it 😉
I have seen at least a Dos 6.22 converter for Windows. It's a mighty hack. You start dos and then run some setup.exe in a directory filled with files and then suddenly (after about 30-60 minutes) you have Windows 95 on that machine. MIRACLE!!!
I guess that dos2unix works the same way 😉
@mods, plese force change that signature... 😉
Sig removed.
That is an awesome converter! Wannahave!

How to ask questions the smart way!

On a mobile phone? sure, if you wanna go the easy way, but where's the fun in that... I use it to run Crysis on Win98, within DOSbox, running on Linux, installed on my AT&T model 500 rotary-dial phone!
BRB though, gotta post a help request thread and ask how to enter raw x86 opcodes in binary using the "0"s and "1" on my dial... I mean, it's supported, right? 😉
Hi Doer:
I have already written a whole system for doing anything outside of dosbox in XP including IE.
Wokrs perfectly every time except you need a fast CPU unlike most game doers that want slow CPU's.
Let me know and I can send the package to you unhindged and no strings attached

Runs on a cellphone, too, I bet.
One could use the same concept on a cell phone but I haven'y done that.
Heck if I know what you've "written", but in case you somehow missed the thread title and Mr. Doer's first post, the cell phone was kind of the whole idea here.
