kvm-12	AMD	64, 32	Windows 95	32	Crashes	Get an "Invalid VxD dynamic link call to device 3, service B". Works with -no-kvm, but doesn't recognize the NIC. Did no further testing.
kvm-14	Intel	64	Windows Server 2003 (Enterprise, SP2)	32	Works	Needs -no-kvm and -no-acpi for install and possibly for update to SP2. Use -net nic,model=rtl8139

kvm-12/14	Intel	64	FreeDOS 1.0	32	Work(ish)	Can only be installed from live CD by disabling kvm and using qemu only. Upper memory management (himem.exe) crashed kvm. Some other drivers do so as well. Step through booting using F8 to determine which. DOS is confined to the lower 640K of memory. See bug 1666308.
