Windows 3.1 OS from Microsoft in Early 90’s got a new platform like Nokia N 82 and Nokia N 95. Folks of FrazPC has done the experiment successfully. Reverse Engineer used Windows 3.1 operating system on the Symbian-powered smartphone, allowing both operating systems to run side-by-side. N95 has 128 MB of Internal Dynamic Memory and a Dual 332 MHz Texas Instruments OMAP 2420 (ARM11-based) CPU,The developer Marcin-PRV used Dosbox in his Experiment. DOSBox is an emulator for Intel x86 PC, complete with sound, graphics, mouse, joystick, modem, etc., necessary for running many old MS-DOS games that simply cannot be run on modern PCs and operating systems, such as Microsoft Windows XP, Windows Vista, Linux and FreeBSD. However, it is not restricted to running only games. In theory, any MS-DOS or PC-DOS (referred to commonly as “DOS”) application should run in DOSBox.
