Finally, I can confirm that it does not work to install from dvd directly to Mac ('Classic games not supported'). This also works fine with the Warcraft II Battlenet edition from an old dvd on the Battlenet server. I tested by playing a multiplayer game with only computer opponents on the server and did not find any problems (for example no graphic problems). (See screenprint 'Win7 Colorfix settings'.) (7) Use the Win7 Colorfix tool from War2DotRuSlashDownloads to start War2Combat with the following settings: Window class name: War2Class, Window caption name: Warcraft II. (See screenprint 'War2 exe file settings'.) (Also not sure anymore if this was necessary.) (6) Adjust War2 exe file settings: Warcraft II BNE.exe, Properties, Compatibility, Access level, select 'Run this program as administrator'. (See screenprint 'Win7 screen resolution settings'.) (Not sure anymore if this step was necessary.)

(5) Adjust Windows 7 screen resolution settings: Screen resolution, Advanced settings, Display, set Number colors to High colors (16 bits). (See screenprint 'VMWare fusion settings'.) This version of the emulator is called VisualBoyAdvance-M (or Visual Boy Advance Merged), which is a continued effort by others since the original Visual Boy Advance authors abandoned the emulator in 2005.For the most accurate Game Boy Classic and Game Boy Color emulation, I recommend Gambatte in the Game Boy section.

(4) Adjust VMWare fusion settings: Settings, Display, turn off Accelerate 3d graphics. (Also tried WinXP, but this caused major graphic problems.) (2) Install Windows 7 Home premium SP1 32bit. Hello, after about 10 frustrating hours puzzling I got it working on my mac (OSX 10.8.5, bit old).
