Microsoft Windows 98SE on 2GB of RAM?

[ohmss006]

I dont know if this is the right place, but i was doing some searching i cannot find the exact place that i want to install Microsoft Windows 98SE on 2GB of RAM.

i have been buyinh parts for my new pc and i want to install win98SE on it, as much that i love to.

i have hard there is a workaround for it, and i was hoping someone here can help me on it.

my RAM is:

Crucial Technology Ballistix 2GB (2 x 1GB) DDR2 800 (#300105326661) and wanting to overclock them as well.

again, i would really appreciate it if anyone can help me on this, or can direct me where to go for this kind of hting, as i assume u cannot install Win98Se directly onto the computer as it wont even load at all? cause its limit is 512MB?

please, givew me all that i need to know and what to do.

thansk very much.

Perhaps you could try installing with other RAM then and then once it is installed and booting correctly then put in your 2GB and see if it will boot.

May I ask why you wan to run Win98SE so bad?

You could always run it as a virtual PC with Microsoft Virtual PC 2007 or VMware Player . Both are free!!
