![]() I'm not even really sure if that was due to the emulation or if I just screwed up while setting up the appropriate drivers, since it's a ridiculously finicky game even on real hardware. IIRC I tried to run Policenauts once and the installation worked, but the game crashed on boot with some kind of error. Each time that you start up a PC-98 machine with a valid HDD, a screen with a list of bootable OS-es will appear (see previous post), so you could potentially install Windows / *nix / DOS / Miscellanea at the same time on the same HDD and just switch them at boot time.įor MAME I use NECCDM.SYS (24369 bytes) and it works pretty well. HDD is A: / B: if present, floppy drives are C: / D:Ģ. PC-98xx drive letters are inverted compared to PC/AT when in normal config, i.e. If everything went correctly, DOS tells you detected HW (here: screen for default PC-9821), press ENTER here, then I guess it tells you to remove disk here, press ENTER again, "SYSTEM SHUTDOWN" -> F3Ĭongrats, you just installed an OS without understanding a single word of the UI :pġ. When it prompts you to following screen just swap first drive disk into the designated disk number (so disk no. At this point it'll start to feed DOS files into your HDD. Once restarted, DOS asks you to tell the directory which it should be installed, also notice that the Yen symbol is an alias for backslash for PC-98xx. (At this point, your HDD has bare minimum for DOS, i.e. "SYSTEM SHUTDOWN", which is a not-so-clever way to tell you to restart the machine, F3 should be enough. After some time, it eventually ask you to format HDD (?). "Ready to install, ENTER to proceed, ESC to double check configuration" (?)ĥ. Select first option and press ENTER again:Ĥ. It then prompts you to partition select (?). ![]() Wait until it prompts you to this, press ENTER on first option (?):ģ. Launch PC-98x1 with your shiny new Hard Disk and disk 1 of DOS in drive A.Ģ. Create a blank HDD via chdman, anything with a sense like previous Amiga 600 example works just fine for PC-98 too (i.e. Enable "Load IDE BIOS" in Machine Configuration Ģ. It'll eventually go in the main OS Install thread)ġ. (This is a WIP guide, if any JP speaker wants to fill in the blanks be my guest. ![]()
