Message:Not without knowing what you are trying to do. Are you running 98SE in a
virtual machine? On what host operating system and in which version of VPC?
How about some help here so we can help you.

Message:You should install the VPC 2004 SP1 virtual machine additions. Win98 is not
a supported guest in the current edition of VPC. You can get the additions
..iso from:
http://vpc.essjae.com/
Don't save the file to the same folder as the current vmadds .iso without
renaming it.
You can mount the .iso on the virtual cd icon or by using the drop down on
the emulated drive to browse for it.

Message:What if I already have the 2007 VPC virtual additions installed? Do I need to
uninstall 2007 virtual additions before I install 2004 Virtual Addtions? Or do I
just go ahead and install 2004 V.A. on "top" of 2007 VA?
Thanks
Saga

Message:Yes. If you have installed the VPC 2007 additions in the Win98 guest then
simply open the guest's Control Panel/Add or Remove Programs and uninstall
the vmadds listed there. Restart the vm and then capture the VPC 2004
vmadds .iso file and the 2004 installer will autostart. Should be very
straightforward.

Message:I don't know if anything happens if you perform Action/Install or Update
Virtual Machine Additions on a Win98 vm using VPC 2007, but if anything does
it wouldn't be right. If no vmadds got installed all the better and he can
proceed with the 2004 vmadds manually.
