#PC-Task/Windows

Does anyone out there have the latest version of PC-Task running with Windows?
I have one or two Windows programs I'd like to run on my A4000 and would like
to know if PC-Task 3 will allow this.

Yes PC-Task 3 will let you run Windows. But it's real slow.

Thanks for the info. I only need it to run a couple of cruddy programs from
work – I figure it's better to the extra stuff at home, even if it takes a
little longer.
PC-Task 3 is a 286 emulator. It will run Windows, but very slowly. Most people
find it's not worth the bother.

Thanks for the confirm. As long as it's not too slow, this is probably the
solution I need.
Say, how much would your newsletter be for someone residing in Hawaii?
Same as the rest of the U.S….$48/year. Leave me your postal address by
e-mail and I'll send you a sample issue.

As a matter of fact I just installed it today. I am now running winCim to
communicate with you. It is capable, bearly, I have an A2000 with 040 and Ram A
Bernoulli disk is HD C: and Amigsa Dos can read it to with creative
mountlisting. the emulation is still 286 but its quicker. this may mean Chris
can only make 16bit emulation (maybe 8) with PC task. Some windoze programs
require 386 or better so check the whares.Text Scrolls are SLOW but the manual
says AGA and 24bit(Retina Picasso?) owners should see much better screen
updates. Hope that gets you started.
