Yes, using FreeDOS Beta 9 pre-release5 and the latest QEMU release 
candidate 0.6.0 for Windows. However the keyboard is really slow (try 
typing fast and it misses characters), and I cannot get the CuteMouse 
driver to load (crashes) so I have to remove it from autoexec.bat.

It crashes here too. But it isn't guaranteed to work.

Do all the freeoszoo releases not have the QEMU monitor? I need it for 
accessing the screendump command.

I would like to know if someone has build lastest cvs and get it running
on windows. It could be my toolchain which has problems too.

I think the 0.6.0 release on freeoszoo is build without any patches added.
If you want monitor support you can get latest working build (must be
20040801).

Hello all,

Just discovered QEMU. Great - incredibly fast - emulation compared to 
the other emulators I've tried (BOCHS, DOSBox).

Please disregard my message about getting into the QEMU monitor in the 
latest CVS builds. It's ctrl-shift-F2, ctrl-shift-F1 to return.

One thing I'd like to see is the option to slow down the emulation. Some 
  of the old demos I've tried just run way too fast. Example:

Another question. Using fullscreen mode with the Win32 version in 
FreeDOS has redraw problems, making it unusable. However it works just 
fine in fullscreen apps like games and demos.

Forgive me for these noob questions.
