SoftGPU : But it's only for Windows 95/98/Me. https://github.com/JHRobotics/softgpu SVGA3D (gen 9) works in VirtualBox 6.0 for me. (glchecker and dxdiag indicate HW acceleration work, but I haven't tried any game yet.)

The best AMD card for winxp is probably HD 7970. (please correct me if I'm wrong.) Its performance is close to a GTX 960. The latest AMD card for winxp might be R9 270X, which is just a rebranded HD 7870. nVidia website only provides winxp drivers for 950 & 960 of 900 series. So fastest nvidia card …

Is it possible to make it work like: if a ini file exists, use ini for text only config. Otherwise, use conf file anyway. (so binary format is still supported in conf.)

Dgvoodoo2 is optional. But a ddraw wrapper is required and you need to hexedit the game exe.
