If you using MS-DOS 6.xx, you get BSOD in Windows 1.01. Please use MS-DOS 3.xx-5.x for Windows 1.01. Also you can enable PS/2 Mouse driver. But if you using Windows 1.02 with EGA 64K Color, you hasn't get color. Only Windows 1.01's EGA 64K have color for MS-DOS 5.x. MS-DOS 5.00 is usable for VMWare and Virtualbox.

Windows Chicago Build 58s running on my Virtualbox? (really?) = no.
Re: Windows 1.01 running on MS-DOS 5.0 (No problem).
Nobody ever said it wouldn't run. Thing is that it was released in June 1991, when Windows 3.0 was on the shelves for a year already and Windows 3.1 was well on its way, so why would anybody even run Windows 1.0 on MS-DOS 5 back then?
AlphaBeta, stop brainwashing me immediately!

You can use setver to get windows 1.01 run with MS-DOS 5.00. You can use Setver on Windows 1.0 Beta and Windows 1.0 Premiere Edition to run MS-DOS 5.00 and MS-DOS 6.XX. I used Setver get older windows 1.xx and 2.xx to run on MS-DOS 5.XX and 6.XX.
