196	Guest Additions Video Driver	kodoku		Having the Guest Additions Video Driver provides MUCH greater stability to the VM.  However, the Additions drivers do not support 256 color support (8bit).  It is capable of 16 colors, 16, 24 and 32bit.  Many applications (some older games for instance) still require 256 color mode.  If the driver is installed, using the XP Compatibility mode is useless, becase 256 colors isn't even listed as an option.  A solution is to uninstall the Addition drivers and use XP's generic video drivers.  However, I have found that using the generic driver causes much too many memory corruption errors that will abort VirtualBox repeatedly.  It would be great if I can have the Guest Additions installed AND have 256 color support.  Thank you!	enhancement	closed	other	VirtualBox 1.3.6	wontfix	video driver, guest additions		other	other
