Re: Set up a Win 3.x VM with browser
That works until you try to change the video driver... select and hit enter, install screen and we're hanging again.

Re: Set up a Win 3.x VM with browser
I just checked the ticket - Ticket #1502 (closed defect: fixed; 2009-01-23 08:23:10 changed by ni81036 ) so it should be ok ??? Given some time I could try but it takes some version swapping here. Which version are you using ? I am 'stuck' (but not unhappy with) 1.5.6 mainly for this reason.

I'm at 2.06 but about to testrun 2.2 soon.

Since your question is not related to this topic it deserves its own post.....

Re: Set up a Win 3.x VM with browser
I finally got around to trying my Win 3.1 VM with VBox v3.0.4 - and it seems to work great. It now runs in 386 Enhanced mode with no lockup problems (for me).
Re: Set up a Win 3.x VM with browser
What is/was the mayor change for the lockup to be solved? only going to 304 or are there other things?

Re: Set up a Win 3.x VM with browser
All I did was upgrade to 3.0.4, after which I naturally checked that a few VMs worked. Win 3.1 was last on my list because I expected it to not work, but to my surprise it did. It works fine in both standard (/s) and 386 enhanced modes. I had made no changes to the VM or to my PC (e.g. I did not enable any VTx option in my BIOS). I was previously using v2.1.4.vbox4me2 wrote:What is/was the major change for the lockup to be solved? only going to 304 or are there other things?
