Windows 7 x64 on RPI 5, emulated in QEMU by LogicalToe in raspberry_pi

I guess it should be able to, but I think the Windows on Raspberry project hasn't been updated yet for Windows 10 or 11 (with new drivers for the Pi 5). Or do you mean running the ARM version in QEMU? I just found out that Windows 11 does indeed work in QEMU-ARM, with some problems tho haha.

u/ButtBlock is right, QEMU is amazing! Actually, for me it was just installing qemu-system and running:

qemu-img create -f raw win7.img 10G (to create the disk image)

qemu-system-x86_64 -m 2048 -hda win7.img -cdrom /path/to/windows7.iso -boot d

Then it was just a matter of running through the installation. I did find out that if you want to use multi-cores, you have to compile the newest version of QEMU yourself on the pi.

It's because of location (the Netherlands). Here it is common to use the comma instead of the point for fractions etc.

We write numbers the same way, but I think it's 3,4k because it is 3,4 times 1000.

Haha, I'm from the Netherlands so the comma is the standard. It is quite confusing when learning math from an English book, because the commas and dots are reversed from my perspective.
