Mac Forum / Applications / Virtual PC / May 2004Win98 on VPC 6.1
Hi, Can I run Win98 on VPC 6.1 for Mac - Standalone ? Thank you. Yes - I do. During installation of VPC select the option to install Windows from a separate CD then use your Win98 CD when prompted.

Steve Jain, Microsoft MVP for Virtual PC for Windows Website: http://www.essjae.com My Windows 98SE was! I installed it about a year ago that way. Don't have a floppy drive for my Mac to boot it otherwise. -Gerry > YOu will also need a boot disk, most Win98 cd-roms were not bootable. > [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > Steve Jain, Microsoft MVP for Virtual PC for Windows > Website: http://www.essjae.com My copy of 98SE came with VPC3 as an official MS retail install CD without need for a boot floppy. Some cd's were, most weren't. Generally, only OEM cd-roms were bootable, and even then, not all were. Also, you don't need a floppy drive, just a floppy disk image to boot off of a floppy, like the one at my site, or from bootdisk.com >My copy of 98SE came with VPC3 as an official MS retail install CD >without need for a boot floppy.
