| Jan 21, 2011 at 21:14 | comment | added | Billy ONeal | @Randolph: The VMware docs say it's still supported. | |
| Jan 21, 2011 at 21:12 | comment | added | user3463 | This is not unexpected. I feel that VMWare only targets Windows 98 and upwards (if they support the 9x series at all). Your chances of getting the display drivers installed are slim. I've seen the same behaviour on VirtualBox and Virtual PC for Windows 3.1 and Windows 95. | |
