If you’ve been searching the web to understand how to test image files in QEMU, you’ve come to the right place. Our freeware, QEMU Simple Boot, simplifies the process.. It is a generic machine emulator and virtualizer. What does this mean? Imagine you have an ISO file which needs testing. You would first need to burn it to a disc, wasting time and a CD/DVD, or you could install a virtual drive and mount the ISO. But there is an easier way … QEMU Simple Boot.
how to use it:
Download the ZIP and extract it to the folder of your choice, then run Qsib.exe. The application is is very simple to use – just drag and drop your .iso, .ima or .img file(s) into the window, and click “Start QEMU Test”. (There is also a checkbox letting you optionally close the program after QEMU has started). You can also use the plus (+) button located near the bottom right of the window to manually select an image file. A slider bar in the top right allows you to choose how much system RAM to to allocate to the test.
In addition, the Menu button in the bottom right of the window allows you to:
– test your USB, CD/DVD images and discs
– easily test your multiboot menu workout
– change the language (found in qsib.ini). Turkish, English and German languages are pre-installed.
QEMU Simple Boot is both portable and free.
NOTE: Please don’t use QEMU Simple Boot to test Windows OS images. It was designed for quickly testing boot loaders for USB flash drives or small image files with low resource requirements. It was not designed to be a full virtualization environment.

As you know QEMU has some restrictions , It is for quickly testing boot-loaders for USB drives or small image files with low resource requirements . It wasn’t developed to be a full virtualization environment , please dont try to test Windows images
Only starts fine, after a few seconds always makes mistake and you can not prove anything at all.
I did the test with the original ISO windows 7 ultimate, and windows 8.1 Pro.
An absolute fraud this application …
I thought it was as effective as VirtualBox

Hello,
Good job guys 🙂
Test in version 1.1:
Works fine in x86.
I have a BSOD in x64 (Win7PE_x64.iso) with:
files: \Windows\System32\Boot\winload.exe
status: 0xc000035a
Infos(translated):The attempting to load a 64-bit application is in progress, but the processor is not compatible with 64-bit mode.
Here is my small contribution (French translations):
First A typo in English Language
07=”Close program, after qeumu started.”
==> 07=”Close program, after qemu started.”
Same thing in home page with Quemu => Qemu
and for all language better to have Qemu (qemu) in Qsib.ini
