Bug Description
In QEMU 4.1.x and earlier, ReactOS can successfully boot, but starting with 4.2, it fails, instead coming up with an error "The video driver failed to initialize."
This happens regardless of VM configuration (even -M pc-i440fx-4.1) and it works well with older versions of QEMU. bisecting QEMU to find the first bad commit reveals 0221d73ce6a8e07

I should add, ReactOS can be downloaded from here: https:/ /reactos. org/download
The LiveCD is sufficient to see the problem.
