Zenfone 2 QEMU-KVM Windows 8: Starting up Runes of Magic ( d3d9 game )

After installing virtio drivers & the Windows 8 QXL video driver, I was pretty surprised to see DxDiag say there was hardware acceleration; so I decided to try to load up one of my favorite games, Runes of Magic. The Windows 8 virtual machine only had 15 gigs, so I had to run Runes of Magic from my shared drive & it was painful ( you’ll see ). Long story short, it runs. It took forever to start up and fps counter ran between fps. Needless to say, this driver is most definitely not fully hardware enabled. :)
