Thanks for the info! However, I'm not interested in this clone.

Things that I'm interested in are:

1. vsbhda keeps silent in VirtualBox v7. Is there a known problem with the HDA emulation? ( mpxplay also remains silent ).* Strangely, the VirtualBox HDA offers no "lineout" ( at least no analog one ), but OTOH it offers 2 (analog) "speakers" on the "rear panel" with colors black and green! Is this a bug?

2. there's a HDA driver for Win9x, even supporting Win31. Do you have any experience with that? Does it "work"?

3. Try to run Jazz Jackrabbit in Qemu. What a mess! What are those guys doing all the time? Qemu is more that 20 years old and still has no proper VGA emulation? They should at least be able to copy/paste the relevant code from DosBox...

Edit: *Works in VirtualBox, so long as you don't choose the ICH9 chipset!!! Actually, works significantly better than the VBox SB emulation!
