How to Run Windows XP on Android

WindowXp ကို Android မှာတင်သုံးရအောင်

ကျွန်တော်ကတော့မစမ်းသပ်ရသေးပါဘူး ကလိချင်ရင်တော့ ကလိကြပေါ့နော် ဖုန်းပျက်ရင်တော့တာဝန်မယူဘူးနော်

ကဲလိုအပ်တာတွေအောက်မှာယူလိုက်ပါနော်ပြီးရင်စမယ်

Bootable .iso copy of Windows XP အဲ့ဒါကတော့ ကိုယ်မှာရှိတဲ့ ဝင်းဒိုးနဲ့သုံးရပါတယ်

Step 1: Extract SDL Folder to Android

First, unzip the SDL Zip. Then transfer the SDL folder root of your SDcard.

Step 2: Setting up the Virtual Machine:

First, on your computer open up Qemu manager. (Start-All Programs- Qemu Mnager). Go to the tab that says VM and click "Create New Virtual Machine" Give it a name, click next. For ram space, generally between 512mb to 1gb is good. This is the ram space it will utilize while you install it on your pc, nothing to do with the ram that will be available on your phone. Afterwards click finish.

Step 3: Extracting the Blank Disc

Now extract the c.zip folder that you downloaded earlier. There should be a file inside that's 1.5GB.

Step 4: Installing Windows to the Blank IMG File

Now, in Qemu Manager, you need to specify the blank img file to use for HD0 (Hard Drive Zero). Go to the drives tab, then HD0 and find the "c.img" you just extracted; hit okay. Now go to the CDROm option and search for your Windows XP.iso file. Once you find it, hit okay. Then go to the little green arrow at the top, and click it (Run Button). Boom it should be running!

Step 5: Complete Windows Installation

Now what you need to do is run through the installation (it could take nearly two hours depending on your hardware) and wait until Windows XP is installed. Once the installation finishes you can exit.

Step 6: Transfer IMG File to your Device

Great, now that Windows XP is installed on the IMG file, you're ready to transfer it to your phone. Connect your phone in USB storage mode (or MTP). Transfer your C.img file to the SDL folder that you extracted to your device in Step 1.

Step 7: On your Phone

Make sure that you downloaded Bochs either from the links above or the Google Play Store. Launch it. If all goes well Windows XP should boot up. Give it a second as it's not the fastest thing to work with. And there you have it; feel free to leave any comments down below.
