Yeah, and the 'S3 Trio32/64' is a very low-end card.

No matter what the actual graphics card, Virtual PC always uses the 'S3 Trio32/64' as the virtual graphics card.

Greg,

When I run my little test app in Windows 7 Virtual PC says its using a standard vga adapter (must be why Win 7 seems so poky installed on my virtual pc). Anyway, Virtual PC doesn't always appear to choose the S3 Trio32/64 adapter driver.

Cycle Saddles,

I guess I shouldn't have said 'always'.  If you have installed the Virtual Machine Additions (which I always do), it will be an S3 Trio 32/64.  If you have not installed them, it will be a Standard VGA Graphics Adapter (I think).  I just wanted to make the point that it's a virtual graphics card and it's the same regardless of the actual hardware.
