"RealPC emulates an Intel Pentium MMX based PC or compatible, allowing you to run PC games and programs, including MS-DOS, Windows 3 and Windows 95 games and applications, alongside your existing Macintosh applications."

The major difference with this version of RealPC, is version 1.1 shipped with IBM's "PC DOS 7.0", dropping MS DOS 6.2.2 from the installed drive file. You can still install MS DOS & Windows 3.1 & 95, only you must provide these yourself.
"RealPC also offers Sound Blaster Pro and Sound Blaster 16 compatibility; joystick support; fast DirectX(R) games support when you add Windows 95, and seamless integration with your Macintosh." --publisher's own description

CompatibilityRequires PPC and Mac OS 7.1.2 or later. Partially worked in SheepShaver.
RealPC 1.1 requires real Mac PPC hardware. In SheepShaver it trys to run but gets too many errors to be considered useable. It does however run very well in "Classic" on a PPC OS X system, 10.4.11 or earlier.

I show at the manual that it supports midi. Can you use roland MT-32 via dos with this emulator?
I don't know why, but the link I provided earlier wasn't working, but the file is still there on Mediafire with a different link. Maybe I changed it and forgot; I'm not sure. In any case, I've updated it.
BTW, we're still waiting on those promised updates...
hello,
could someone (pointing at shepmyshaver123) pleeease re-upload the latest Version of RealPC to a working hosting service? Like so many (maby most) external download links, this one here is not working
Invalid or Deleted File.
The key you provided for file download was invalid. This is usually caused because the file is no longer stored on Mediafire. This occurs when the file is removed by the originating user or Mediafire.

Found these on my laptop, will be uploaded later:
- RealPC 1.0 CD (Perfectly untouched)
- RealPC 1.0.2 Update
- RealPC 1.0.3 Upgrade
- RealPC 1.0.9 Update
- RealPC 1.1
Anyone who is interested in this, feel free to post screenshots or description; I've never used this and don't plan to. There was a copy on CDR that came included with some other items sent to me, so I've done what I can to archive it for everyone else.
Insignia re-packaged their emulators so many times and with such confusing options that I don't know where this one fits in exactly. On rare occasions when I need to emulate a PC, I use Virtual PC.
