I've tried several of the drivers that come with Windows 3.1, but I can't seem to find one that works. So, does anyone know how to set up for 256 colors for Win 3.1 under DosBox? Maybe a driver on the web?

Thanks in advance.

Search through the forum, should be in the guides or something like that.

Well I'm running Windows 3.1 in 256 colors now, thanks to this thread.

Windows 3.1 in 256 colours.

Still having a bit of trouble, as my mouse pointer has a habit of jumping out of the DosBox field. Or if I run it full screen it tends to run into invisible barriers that prevent me from reaching the portions of the screem when I want too.
