[Qemu-discuss] QEMU GD5446 Problems with WfW 3.11 and Windows 95

[Kutscherauer Wolfgang sen.]

Hello,

I try actually to setup a Windows for Workgroups (WfW 3.11) in qemu.
With -vga vmware and a patched svg256.drv i could use up to 1024x768
with 256 colours.

Every time i try -vga cirrus and ANY! GD5446 driver disk i get a damaged
screen or the message, that WfW 3.11 could not init the video card.
A lot of searches later there is no solution for this.
Does anyone succeeded to use WfW 3.11 on qemu with more than 256 colours?

On Windows 95 the system says that there is no GD5446 in the PC (qemu).
Does anyone succeed to run Win 95 in qemu with -vga cirrus at i.e.
1024x768 with 16Bit depth?

Best regards
