Assistance needed for a Windows 98 guest
Assistance needed for a Windows 98 guest
I've got a fairly new HP desktop with Windows 10 on it and a lot of older programs and games that would work best with Windows 98. I'm new to virtualbox and I've been trying for the last week to get it to give me a Windows 98 system with a game installed on it with no success and a lot of frustration. I'm in an area of Los Angeles called Westchester, 90045. I need someone with knowledge of how to configure virtualbox properly to assist me; I'd be willing to pay someone for their time, trouble and gas.

Take a look at the Howtos and Tutorials » Windows Guests area, there are a couple of Win9* tutorials. What game are you looking at?

I appreciate your suggestions but I was hoping for someone more local to me. You're in Greece? Yes, the gas would be very expensive to get you here from Greece. I used to like playing RPGs and I've just recently found myself with the time and motivation to play some of them. I was going to start with Baldurs Gate.
