Spacce Posted March 23, 2002 Share Posted March 23, 2002 I'm going to install windows 3.1 on 386 today... it has only 1 meg of memory. I've seen windows run on 2 megs.. Anyone know the requirements, memory wise? thanks in advanced Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neowin_hipster Posted March 23, 2002 Share Posted March 23, 2002 DO you have DOS on the system. Windows 3.1 is an app that runs on dos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neowin_hipster Posted March 23, 2002 Share Posted March 23, 2002 Actually I believe it is called task-switching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CustardFD Posted March 23, 2002 Share Posted March 23, 2002 I thought it was possible as long as you ran it in 386 Enhanced mode so that windows used the swapfile as much as possible... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
