Subject: No Hypervisor??

Im trying to run this so I can use a CD-ROM I got with a camera and so I'm trying to download this to use it. Problem is, it doesn't fully run. It will start up but then crash because there is no hypervisor. How do I fix?

Subject: Fix for SHELL error

I haven't tried this image yet, but to run Windows98 on VirtualBox you will need to patch a few files. Here is the patch https://github.com/JHRobotics/patcher9x/releases/. Thank me later :)

Subject: 'Not enough space' despite having 49.3GBs left.

WTF? Only on your VDI's does this error occur. Launchbox since 2021 people (including me) have it mysteriously stopped working too after a Windows 10 update so I'm suspecting MS is going around destroying old files.

They have been at a 'soft' war for a long time against users but now it's getting to become a 'hot' war which with the economic recession we are in (in all but name) when rich people get scared it's NOT pretty and most of them are all ultra left.

Which is why when you all riot against the 'rich' be sure you know who you are attacking as you are very likely going to be biting the hand that feeds ya!

Subject: Does it have a 256 color display?

When I installed Windows 95 in VB, it only supported 16 color or monochrome display, and later I tried to install Windows XP, but it didn't damn work. So I wonder od this VDI of Windows 98 has a 256 color display

Subject: thank you! though uh...

i keep running into "this program has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down" errors with nprotect, rundll32, and msgsrv32 upon inital start. does it need any specific VBox settings or a specific version to run properly? (using version 6.0.14 r133895)

Reviewer: Sgeo - - August 12, 2019
Subject: Convenient but weird sound issues

Some sounds don't seem to work, while others do. It's weird. For a game I tried (BLAST THRU), the sounds in game didn't work. There are .wav files in the games directory. They do not play in Windows Media Player but play just fine in Sound Recorder. Also tried dxdiag, I could not hear anything in the Sound test but the Music test worked (but was very choppy). The bell that dxdiag does on each dialog was also fine, as was the Windows startup sound.

Subject: Thankful

Thank you! I was close to giving up trying to get anything pre-XP fully usable in Virtualbox, mostly due to having trouble finding graphics drivers that would do the job. Your efforts are highly appreciated. It's a fully working installation with a few goodies, and none of the frustration - everything works so far.
