When it comes to the menu I don't care much about that, I mostly use the command line instead. It may be possible to get it to work in NT4, but not in Win9x sense the command line is much more limited there. I maybe write a GUI if I find some time and, of course, get some of the newer version of qemu to start :-). The silent crashes are very annoying. I tested a nightly build but that behaved the same. If anyone have a solution I'm willing to test that. I guess it is a decency problem. Maybe it's directx causing the problem, only dx3 is supported in NT4. But I have tested in Win98 with dx9 (if I remember correctly) but it also dies their silently to, so maybe it's something else...

Now error messages are finally printed. Thanks a lot! The was a network problem, "GetNetworkParams failed. ret = 00000032. Could not get DNS address". GetNetworkParams is not supported in NT4, so that's probably why it crash. I used "-nics 0" to solve the problem, and now it starts again. I will test more in the weekend and report what I have found. Thanks again.
