Windows Virtual PC only officially supports Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7 as guest operating systems. Thankfully it has great compatibility and can run many operating systems that are not officially supported.I recently needed to setup a Windows 98 virtual machine for my wife – who has some genealogy software that will not even run on Windows XP. To do this I created a new virtual machine and configured it with 64mb of RAM and a 16GB virtual hard disk.I was then able to install Windows 98 with no real problems:Some things to be aware of when doing this:. I originally created the virtual machine with 128mb of RAM – but that caused problems for the setup program.

Setting the memory to 64mb allowed the installation to go through successfully – and I was able to increase the memory after the operating system installation. I happen to have a bootable Windows 98 installation CD – but most Windows 98 installation CDs are not bootable. If you have one of these – you need to use a boot floppy – which means you will need for attaching floppy disks to virtual machines. While I used a 16GB virtual hard disk – because that is all that I needed – I have tried this with disks up to 127GB in size and not seen any problems.After installation both networking and sound work correctly – but the video is kind of “sucky” and you need to capture / release the mouse whenever you use the virtual machine. Luckily you can address both of these issues by installing older virtual machine additions in the virtual machine. Doing this will give you:.

Better graphics. Integrated mouse functionality. Desktop resizingBut you will not get:. Clipboard integration.

Time synchronization. Shared Folders. Printer / smart card sharingBut how do you do this? The trick is to extract the old virtual machine additions out of a previous product. In my case I decided to get the virtual machine additions out of Virtual Server 2005 R2.

Although the list of supported guest OS is very (too) limited (for example, I think windows 2000 should still be officially supported by the latest version), it's great Windows Virtual PC is actually able to run many other systems (like Windows 98). Just a question: because Windows 98 is unsupported for a long time, you warn users about the danger of use for network or web purposes. It is just a virtual machine! If the host system – Windows 7 in that case – is properly protected (antivirus, firewall, ), why bother? There would be no infection from the virtual machine to the real machine and you can replace the files of virtual machine at any time.

Bezem / IL –I have not checked the exact version numbers – sorry.Jon / MikeB / Luciano –If you search this site you will find many posts talking about different operating systems on older versions of Virtual PC – most of which are still applicable to Windows Virtual PC. That said – I will add it to my list of 'blog posts to do' that I need to talk about this 🙂Big Monstro –You are correct that a compromised / infected virtual machine is no more of a danger to you than if you had a seperate physical computer running Windows 98 that was compromised / infected.

But I do not want such a thing in my environment – virtual or physical.Cheers,Ben. Is it possible to disable the integrated mouse functionnality without uninstalling virtual machine additions? It is easily feasible with Microsoft Virtual PC 2004/2007 but I cannot find this option on Windows Virtual PC. I've a virtual machine with Windows 98 for game purpose (especially to play with Age of Empires II, because there are compatibility issues on Windows 7) and I need to disable integrated mouse to properly play. If I uninstall virtual machine additions, I uninstall the best driver for the virtual graphic card at the same time. How disable the integrated mouse functionnality with Virtual Machines Additions installed?

Should I use VPC 2007 instead? Thank you for your answers.

Best regards. Hi,I am trying to get win98 working as a guest on windows 7.

I have been able to install the OS but when I tried to install the VM additions it couldn't find the various files for setting up the video, sound etc. It did release the cursor though. I tried to reinstall the VMA but it didn't give me the option of refreshing just remove so I removed them thinking that I would be able to reinstall them but now when I go into the VMA wizard it only gives me the option to remove (they are already removed the cursor is captive). Next I decided to follow your instructions to extract VMA from an earlier version but although I followed your instructions to the letter on both the win7 host machine and also a borrowed laptop running winXP I can't get the command scripts to work.

1setup1.exe /c /t doesn't appear to do anything but 1setup1.exe starts to install the program. The other 2 scripts result in a 'windows cannot find start' message. I am desparate to get this going as like your wife I desperately need to run genealogy software that will not run on win7. What am I doing wrong?

What am I doing wrong? This Howto will bring you a few new Windows7 licenses – I know a company that run Win98 on all their (modern!) Office PCs because the main application is not ( With no trick ) Win 2k/XP ready. They skipped the upgrade to XP,to Vista and to 7 when they found out that Windows7 VPC/xpmode wont work for them too.

And the desaster wether the CPU had VT or not was also not helpful.Now – with THIS tutorial and the updated VPC package and SP1 for Win7 I will tell the manager: 'Yes you can now'.Unsupported, I know. But I promise he wont ring Microsofts hotline.

Only mine 🙂Thank You, Ben Armstrong. 'Step 10: You can delete all the other files now': Good to know, but don't do this immediately. There is a precompact.iso that should work for Windows 2000 – unlike the Windows 7 VPC precompact.iso. There is a CHM file explaining the VM API, in essence the same as what you find for VPC on technet, but I prefer CHM files for offline use. E.g., it's perfectly simple to twist Ben's floppydrive.vbs into a similar cddvd.vbs if you just replace 'floppydrives' by 'DVDROMdrives' (plus one other modification) based on info in this CHM – all you need for this 'programming' is a text editor. Hi, i followed the steps you listed above to increase the video card memory, but when i used the code in the prompt windows, the files that were on my work directory seemed to not be affected by the commands written in prompt even if there were no error messages after typin enter.So i was non able to extract the content of the setup.exe file.I tried to use winrar to extract the files but i received a 'damaged archive' error message even if the setup file is not damaged, in fact if I double click on it it starts without problemsDo you have any suggestion?Thanks in advice.

Hey all.Just thought I'd contribute a little- I also found this tutorial helpful, but an easier method is: download a program such as virtual box/virtual pc or whatever, and choose to run an existing VMC. At this point you will be given the option to browse your computer and select a.vmc file for loading. You can find a premade VMC with windows 98 installed readily available for downloading on the internet- I am including one example link, though it is not hard to find.vmc files on a file-sharing site.Hope this helps. Cnelson 'how do I get files from the virtual machine back to my physical machine?'

Benjamin suggested a way with a private network (to Stuart). There is another way, and that involves using a Win XP VM as an intermediary, since it can 'see' the physical machines' hard drive(s).

It can also see other virtual hard drives if you add them.1. With the XP VM.shut down., you go the the XP.vcmx file C:UsersmeTheUserVirtual Machines(Where 'meTheUser' is replaced by the user log in you are using on Win 7.)2. Right click 'settings' on that.vcmx file3. Click down to 'Hard Disk 2', supposing that you have not already added that. ('Hard disk 3' is there too, if you need it.)4. Now, in the right-hand panel, you click the button for 'Virtual Hard Disk' and point to your Win 98.vhd file.Mine, for example, is:C:UsersgwhiteAppDataLocalMicrosoftWindows Virtual PCVirtual Machinesw98se.vhdYour Win XP VM can now 'see' your Win 98 VHD.5. Make sure your Win 98 VM is shut down.6.

Start up your Win XP VM. Once it is started, you should be able to find the Win 98 hard drive.

Since the XP VM can see both the Win 98 VHD and your physical Win 7 hard drives, you can literally copy files between them.Note: You cannot have both VM's running at the same time to see the same VHD. There is no true sharing with this method.
