I have every requirement that the game lists, I just was assuming it ran slow because of whatever "lack" of SVGA drivers that were compatible with VBox? Perhaps I'm wrong, but the fact still remains that Commandos, a game designed for 95/98, is running slow when I should match and exceed it's requirements. This has worked fine with many games I've tried so far, but with Commandos, the game runs very slow and is barely playable. Anyway, when I downloaded the VESA drivers, I could use much higher resolutions with up to 32 bit colors. Not sure why, I believe it's something to do with the VBox graphics card. When running Win98 for the first time, you won't get any better than a 640x480 resolution with 16 colors. I'll try to state more clearly what's going on. Pardon my lack of understanding of some of the hardware aspects. Sep 2008, 17:09 Primary OS: MS Windows 10 VBox Version: PUEL Guest OSses: Mostly XP mpack Site Moderator Posts: 35004 Joined: 4. In fact I believe that is the video mode which the VBox virtual graphics card defaults to, so you shouldn't even have needed the VESA driver. Ok, we've established that SVGA refers to a video mode provided by VirtualBox, but which one? The term SVGA itself can be generic (SVGA = SuperVGA = "better than VGA"), but if not used in a generic sense then I think it usually meant 800圆00x256.

Now the whole point of a VESA driver is to let you choose video modes, so talking about a "VGA version" or "SVGA version" of the VESA driver makes little sense to me. All the VESA driver does is allow Windows to access the features of the graphics card emulated by VBox, because it happens to provide a VESA compatible control interface. The video mode is provided by VirtualBox, not by the VESA driver. In this context SVGA is a video mode, not a card or a driver ("SVGA card" is shorthand for "SVGA capable graphics card). Perhaps my memory or my understanding is faulty, but I think you are barking up the wrong tree (several wrong trees in fact).

So is there a way to get an SVGA driver that will work? I'd really like to play this game, and it plays too fast on faster computers. I downloaded the VESA drivers, and the VGA driver works great for other things, but I can't seem to install the SVGA one because it keeps conflicting with the primary display adapter.
but the 1MB SVGA card is where I'm getting stuck. Obviously I made sure I have at least all of those, including directx. I just installed Commandos: Behind Enemy Lines, the requirements are as follows:ġMB SVGA card, 4X CD Rom (8X recommended) I installed Win98 SE as a guest OS, mostly to play the good ol' games that are between Dos and XP and nearly impossible to get running on modern PCs. hope I'm posting this in the right section.
Hello all, I'm new to the forums and pretty new to VBox.
