    It's evening and I'm home at last! :-D

    Ok, this is what is in mine .bochsrc:

    With this config I have 128 MB in Windows.
    I've got a A-drive and a B-drive (2 images of bootable floppies).
    I've assigned 2 IDE controllers to be active and have a 512 MB image-file and the CD-ROM on the first controller and also a 512 MB image-file as Master on the second IDE controller.
    And finally Bochs starts in a window in Ambient.



    I use Bochs V2.0.2 with the newly made GUI from Felix.
    This GUI deletes all unnecessary lines in the config-file, perhaps that is the thrashing you were talking about targhan?

    About the CDROM:
    Like tomjoad said, just place a cd in the drive and Bochs will continue loading (well, if you have a bootable drive ofcourse ;-))
    Also to answer td741, I installed Microsoft Office 97 from cd in Windows 95, so it works beautifully :-)

    I don't know if the GUI works with the latest Bochs. I guess I'll have to try this.
