Works fine in VGA 640x480 16 color mode, can get SB16 drivers installed and working. Works well enough, but if you try to use a DOS program through windows 3.1, it will work, but DOSbox will crash when you exit the program. But unlike Windows 95, it is easy to get Windows 3.1 running in DOSBox and Windows 3.1 runs much faster on 486s and high end 386s than Windows 95. Moreover, many games that run on Windows 3.1 have a DOS executable or run just fine on Windows 95. I had the same problem as bob bobato, but i found a webpage explaining about windows 3.1 with dosbox and besides explaining you all the installation proccess, that pages got links to drivers and using s3 driver resolve the problem of crashing after using a dos program and also it gives you the chance of changing your resolution and also you can use 256 colors. Many Windows 95 games are strictly Windows 95 or better only. I own a legitimate copy of win 3.1 on floppies, and the drivers I have are literally from my old PC that I used to run back in 1998. Unfortunately, I don't know exactly where to scoop these drivers from on the internet. If you find the legit installer, the file name on the actual install folder should read "sb16w31". For the audio, make sure to use the win3.1 installer for sound blaster 16 -the DOS installer messes up, so you must use the installer made for 3.1. I installed the vga drivers for the S3 Trio 64V, which allows 64,000 color (high color) at 1024x768 resolution. In your config, set up with svga_s3 and sb16 audio. No crashing after using DOS programs and no hangs.
