Pctask 4.44 can boot up win95. But probably you need a very fast 060 cpu. On my 68040/33MHz it takes hours to install and about 20-30 minute to boot up! :crazy:
So useless. So on a plain 1200 you can run speed.exe or something similar, maybe some older software which is exist on amiga too, but it has not so much benefit.
Maybe a powerup/warpup pc-task can do the job, but this is not saw the sunlight.

Yeasterday, when i gave up my search after civ2 for mac, i install my pc-task 4.4 again, to give him another shot. So i decided to put only win3.1 and not win95 and try civilization 2.
 
What can i say. I run these on 68040/33. Win 3.1 always want a native screen (AGA). (Normal dos mode is running on the voodoo 640*480, as it had been set on the pc-task configuration.)
Anyway the emulation was slow. I managed to run civ2 on pc-task, but it takes seconds to to move my settler unit to another square. (to set up a new game and play it takes 10-12 minute!)

While civ2demo on shapeshifter and os7.5.5 running at ok speed.
