Virtual Machine Graphics and Keyboard Support

Virtual machines support certain graphics features.

• VGA and SVGA are supported.
• 104-key Windows 95/98 enhanced keyboards are supported.
• To use the GL_EXT_texture_compression_s3tc and GL_S3_s3tc Open Graphics Library (OpenGL) extensions in a Windows XP or Windows 7 or later guest operating system, you must install Microsoft DirectX End-User Runtime in the guest operating system. OpenGL is an API that is used to define 2D and 3D computer graphics. You can download Microsoft DirectX End-User Runtime from the Microsoft Download Center Web site.
