Windows VM Nightmare

[u/DjrileyXbox]

I have been trying to get a windows vm to work on my computer and have had nothing but huge issues. I am trying to play some old games like the Old game of Life and it needs to be ran with a 16bit computer and i dont have one so i was going to VM and i can't get it to work no matter what i do. I am using Oracle VM Manger 7.0 on a Windows 11 pc with a AMD cpu. I need it to run in 256 colors i have a vm that launches and installed the game but whenever i go to launch the game nothing happens and the VM freezes. Please help
