Vista - Installing Win98SE

05-23-2008

That's what I'm trying to do. I have a DOS 6.22 VM with the DOS VM
Additions. The VM reads the CD and launches Setup.exe just fine. I have
mouse support until setup gets to the License Agreement screen. Then the
mouse and keyboard freeze--I can't use the Tab key to cycle through the
radio buttons, or reboot it with Right-ALT DEL.

I also tried setting the CD drive at the top of the boot order in the VM's
BIOS, but it won't boot from the the CD.

My son is doing a report/presentation on the history of computer games, and
I thought . . .

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I got the download from essjae.com and it works fine.
