3D acceleration Wingps ActiveX in vs 4.1.8

[cees verhoef]

LS!

I am using a Windows sailing navigation package called WinGPS by a company called Stentec it is a very good package, but it seems to get the chart images garbled see the screenshot.

I used the 3D accelleration that seems to emulate activeX installed in safe mode. However the result is kinda disappointing

Does anybody recognise this and have a suggestion on houw to fix it?

Best regards,
Cees

Yes, install Windows via Bootcamp.

Hi Stephan,

As a last resort that will probably work, but i'm here on the Virtualbox forum, not in the Bootcamp forum or not?

Virtualizers are not made for games. It may work or not. If not, then not.

Games? I understood him to say it's a GPS package for sailboat enthusiasts? I assume it displays a map/chart with your current coordinates?

If so, it doesn't sound like a strenuous test for graphical capability. I can't see a need for a high framerate, so wouldn't have thought it needed graphics acceleration.

Were the Guest Additions installed?

(the referenced screenshot was missed out btw).

Read the first post: "I used the 3D accelleration that seems to emulate activeX installed in safe mode." I think yes.
