VMware Equivalent

What is CPU usage when starting Windows 98SE vs. ME?

I haven't looked at that so far as I have no responsiveness problems with the host when running either guest.

Sorry to revive an old topic, but didn't want to start a new one...

Now you can try your other OSes from within Windows 98/ME:

* VirtualBox v1.3.2 32-bit for Windows 9x/NT4/2000/ME/XP/2003/Vista + Linux/OpenBSD X86 OS emulator runs multiple OSes from the same host OS, supports all flavors of MS Windows 3.1x/9x/NT/2000/ME/XP/2003/Vista, Linux/OpenBSD + MS-DOS 5/6/7/8, highly customizable:

According to its manual, the host OS is NT/XP/Server 2003 and that's all. Outside the manual, it foolishly just says win32. But it's a cruel joke.

it uses ntdll which is why its incompatible, i made it use xpdll but now it says Failed to create the Virtual COM Object.

QEMU is a very nice program. Trying it right now.

can someone please post this QEMU package with some default settings applied? FOR WINDOWS?

I have been searching and searching... I don't have the time and effort to "learn LINUX to use QEMU"...

Like, what's the stuff about 'accelerator', how much of that info is applicable to the Win version... etc...
