So far we have one vote for DOSBox and one for an older machine. I'm interested that you prefer 9x to XP.
I currently have 15 machines running in my home: 1 Win-95 2 Win-98 SE 2 Win-XP Home 6 Win-XP Pro 1 Win-Vista Ultimate 64-bit 1 Win-7 Pro 32-bit 1 Win-7 Pro 64-bit 1 Win-8.1 64-bit All of the older ones are in storage at the moment (and they all still function). And I still prefer running the good old DOS version of FractInt under my Win-98 SE systems. A bit slower, but less hassles with trying to get it to run on anything else.
Jonathan has had good luck on Xp, I've had less so. You may be right that On XP it comes down to drivers and hardware.
There have only been a few machines that I have found which will run the same DOS version of FractInt under Windows-XP. I just do not have one which will, unless it is in Disk Mode. My systems newer than XP require me to use DOS-Box, and I just do not care to have to go through such extra configurations. Sincerely, P.N.L.
