I had the same problem with Win 2.0(3) - it crashed a split second after starting it. The solution: The MS-DOS-Version in the Dos-Box must be set manually on MS-DOS 4. Dos-Box is usually on Version MS-DOS 5 (Dos-Box 0.70). The command is "ver set 4". For easier handlling I create a Batch-file called win.bat:

ver set 4
win

The same trick can be used for Windows 1.0, only that the MS-Dos-Version is here 3.40 (ver set 3 40).

Installer works fine. (Installed off hard drive.) Application shows the Windows Logo (of that time) for a split second, then dumps out. DOSBox does not terminate after running Win2.
