* Windows 3.

* OpenBSD -
* NetBSD
* Xenix
* Windows Vista betas (both pre-reset and post-reset, albeit setup will have graphical glitches)
* Windows Neptune▼
* Many hobbyist OSes although some don't have support for the RTL8139 or just doesn't support USB-tablet
=== OSes with some issues ===
▲* Windows 95 - After installing the OS, you'll need to run <code>FIX95CPU.iso</code> to prevent a "Windows Protection Error". You will also need to use <code>qemutab.img</code> to get a working mouse. Other than that, the OS runs fine.
* Windows NT 3.1 - You will need to reboot into DOS and edit some setup files, see [https://virtuallyfun.com/wordpress/2016/10/26/installing-windows-nt-3-1-physical-computer/ this page] for more info, other than that it will work, though there are no networking drivers.
=== OSes that barely work ===
* Windows 8.0 RTM -
* SerenityOS - WindowServer fails to start
* QNX 6 - Runs fine but non-functioning mouse despite USB stack and USB mouse module for all HCIs running.
== Untested OSes ==
* Windows Whistler
▲* Windows Neptune
* Windows 2.x - Tip: qemutab.img has a usb-tablet driver for 2.x, use it for working mouse.
* Everything else
