Ok, here's is my testing on Workstation 6.5.x, 7.0.1, and also the new 7.1 release candidate. The same results for nearly every one. Newer tools/drivers with the 7.1 release candidate didn't seem to help at all.
Windows 7 x64 host with all curren updates. Guests tested are as follows:
-Windows 98 SE no updates=wouldn't load (debug engine error)
-Windows 98 SE all updates and drivers=wouldn't load (debug engine error)
-Windows XP with/without updates=works
-Windows XP SP1 with/without updates=works
-Windows XP SP3 with/without updates=works
Bottom line is it WORKS. Here are the problems:
-animation on startup screen scrolls really fast. (never seems to be a problem)
-text throughout the menus are distorted
-when you launch a game, you get a white or black screen for up to a minute before you actually see the loading "cake".
-while in the game, everything works, it's just that the screen seems to have a really bad refresh rate and causes the screen to jump and shake.
While the game is still playable, it is annoying to see the screen jump around. I haven't found a fix for the refresh issue. Not sure it's important enough to bring up in the beta support forum, but I've been leaning that direction. I doubt there's anything that can be done.
