So i know that the Surface Pro X has 32-bit Emulation but in some articles and videos, people went over some apps crashing even though emulation of them should be possible. What about Lazarus? Is there someone who uses or at least tried to use Lazarus on Surface Pro X or Windows on ARM? Can and does it run with it and is the performance that worse?

I have not tried this as yet. I have to get my hands on a Surface Pro X, at least to test.

Does anybody have already installed Windows 10 on a Rpi 3-B?
And get fpc work on it?
And are the binaries compiled on Windows-Rpi compatible with MS Surface Pro X?
Thanks.

i386 Lazarus works without any problems on Windows for ARM64.

Not on a Pi 3B, but on a Pi 4 inside a VM.

The i386 one, yes (including Lazarus). The aarch64 still has some bugs and is not fully useable yet.
And are the binaries compiled on Windows-Rpi compatible with MS Surface Pro X?
It's simply the i386 compiler. It doesn't generate any different binaries than it would on a i386 system.

It seems that it is possible too to install the true Windows 10 on Rpi4:

Ha, ok, but this is because Windows for ARM64 can emulate i386 but this is not a "pure Windows ARM64 fpc" app.
(Or I miss something.)

Ha, ok, and this will produce a "pure Windows ARM64 fpc" app.

Thanks for the light.

Yes, but running it using KVM on a Linux allows me to use the onboard ethernet controller for example. There are also some other problems, because Microsoft does not provide a native Windows ARM64 for the Pi. The 32-bit variant is a bit better here cause it can use the drivers provided with Windows IoT Core (but even then ethernet would not work on the Pi4).

Yes and that is all you have for now.

Yes, correct.

@Sven : ok, clear, thanks.
