[Qemu-devel] getting access violation when installing mdac or .net framework on win2k

[Francisco Figueiredo Jr.]

Hi all,

I'm getting some access violation.

I tried both 0.6 as well cvs version.

Is there something I could do about it?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Francisco Figueiredo Jr.

Ok, I think I didn't make myself clear enough...

Let me try again.

I'm using qemu (0.6 and cvs) in a fedora core 2 box.
I installed win2k professional so I could use some exclusive programs in 
windows.

But when I try to install mdac or ms net framework, I get access 
violations and installation can't proceed.

Is anybody getting these access violation excpetions with win2k?

Is there any workaround so I could install the programs?

Thanks in advance.

Maybe the apps you are trying to use require MMX, SSE(, SSE2, 3DNow) cpu 
support.
As far as I know neither mmx nor sse is implemented yet.

I get similar Errors when using a Englisch course dvd-rom made by 
Digital Publishing.
The video tutor and some other functionality are not present at all and 
everytime I access the learning window I get access violations.
The behaviour is always the same - the guest m$-win version doesn't 
matter (95.0/98SE/XP).

I believe even DirectX strongly depends on MMX.

Best regards,

Of course: Implement MMX ;)

Hi Martin.

Thanks for reply.

If this is the problem, I don't know if the program tries to use mmx or 
other instructions sets, does this mean I'm out of luck for while? At 
least until these support is added to qemu?


Or is there some thing I could use in qemu to workaround?

Thanks in advance.

*IF* MMX or SSE is the problem: No.
Could you find a workaround when trying to run these apps on a hardware 
i80486 ?

Maybe on could write "SoftMMX for Windows" or the like.
I don't think there is something like that.

Let's hope, that Fabrice or any other hacker will implement MMX as 
extension of qemu.
One could get ideas from the Bochs project which already has MMX, 
SSE1|2, X86-64 support.

Would be good in general ;)

:)

I was having another thing in mind...
something like:

qemu -dontthrowaccessexceptions [options]

;)

As my knowledge about that doesn't allow me to implement MMX support, I 
will wait for some good soul to implement it.

Thanks.

How about qemu -on_error_resume_next

I'm sorry. Only those condemned to occasionally do Windows development
will understand...

maybe

qemu -justdoit

or more Emu like,

qemu -headinsand

Actually this was in GW-BASIC circa 1981.
