Awesome! Didn't know you can use Windows 3.1 drivers with Windows 98. I will try this on my Asus G750 gaming laptop. I managed to install Windows 98 a while ago but it wasn't really usable without a mouse.
I'm glad it helps but on that laptop you should try to get USB support first! Uninstall any unknown USB controllers in Device Manager then install this unofficial patch: www.philscomputerlab.com/windows-98-usb-storage-driver.html
There will be a separate video about drivers, PCI-E cards & co. Maybe next one. Meanwhile, I will update the description with more links of software and patches used in the video.
In 5-10 years 86box and hopefully CPU's (single-core muscle) will have evolved enough to not have to do this. This is outright INSANE. It's pretty cool that you can do this though.
If anything beyond doing the ACPI off command line option when installing windows 98 is needed, it's too new of a computer and I can't let it get out to a customer who isn't technical!
CSM & fully backwards compatible X86 configurations will be a thing in 2034, but reserved for the industrial sector. Something like ISA slots are right now... If you look at his H310 motherboard with ISA slots - CPUs will be available until: *"15-Year CPU Life Cycle Support Until Q4' 33 (Based on Intel IOTG Roadmap)"* www.dfi.com/product/index/150
I can't wait until I can emulate a 1.6GHz Pentium III at full speed. By that point, maybe some more powerful GPUs can make their way into 86Box as well.
The most important part of any chipset, the one related disk hardware is covered by the AHCI universal driver released by R. Loew. You simply install that driver and your SATA SSD will work at over 200MB/s transfer rates, SATA CD/DVD drives will be recognized also. You should watch this video: ruclips.net/video/BulG6-1XOe0/видео.html . There are some universal USB drivers that will work up to Intel Haswell generation motherboards (2014) - or you can buy a PCI-E to USB 2.0 card. The integrated LAN can be used with DOS drivers. (not the best option). HD sound won't work. In rest everything related to the PCI bus up to the PC speaker is standardized you don't need any extra drivers.
When I used the driver you provided on Windows 2000, the device appeared in Device Manager as AX88772C, but the selection page was blank, with nothing available to choose from.
On that amazon page they mentioned the AX88772 chip - not the new variant that end witch "C". There are two newer variants, 88772B and 88772C - which probably you have it. The C variant has updated divers for Windows 10, 11 released in 2023, it's well maintained. It works on tablets... but I don't see any support for 2K. This chip was released in 2013, while the original AX88772 in 2004. Version 3.16.3.0 (2013-06-19) 1. Support new AX88772C chip. 2. Add support multi-language. 3. Revise blocking non ASIX products. 4. Fix SPX GPIO control issue. 5. Add AX88772A support GPIOx pins control APIs. 6. Support to capture VLAN-tagged packets. 7. Support RMII external PHY and Rev-RMII PHY modes.

There are gigabit PCI cards with Windows 98 32bit drivers from Intel and Realtek. I haven't found a PCI-E card yet. Some early PCI-E Realtek cards are supposed to be Windows 98 compatible. Once I had a PCI-E gigabit card from Broadcom that worked with Windows NT 3.51 from 1995... But this is not a big surprise since NT was about servers and networks... I don't have that card anymore to see if it works in 98.
@@roiapl1868 Yep, all the nVidia cards up to 7900 series - including Quadro variants - released before they switched to Unified shaders (CUDA cores). Also the first generation of ATI PCI-E cards are working great in Windows 98/Me without any patching required. From the second generation of ATI PCI-E cards many entry level and mid range cards (like ATI X1300) are still based on the previous generation chips - technically with some driver patching you might get them installed in Windows 98 but no one bothered because the last generation nVidia cards are much better.
Not necessarily. Modern BIOSes do not offer this option anymore. You can use AHCI which can handle natively real mode requests - so your drive will work under Windows 9x in "MS-DOS compatibility mode".
All 32bit software runs perfectly fine on a modern CPU and Windows 98. Don't forget that in Windows 10/11 there are still lots of 32bit software still running.
Unfortunately, ACPI tends to cause stress in newer systems. While Initializing device CONFIGMG: Windows Protection Error. You need to restart...If you turn this off, the error does not occur. The SATA controller likes to mess around and only runs in MS-DOS compatibility mode or, as an IDE controller, shows errors with yellow exclamation marks. With PCI SATA or IDE controllers you have peace of mind again.
Yes, you have to stay away from ACPI in Windows 98. To bad you can't select ACPI version in BIOS. What SATA controller do you have? I used the R. Loew's AHCI patch and it works very stable with an Asus H610 motherboard for 12/13/14th Gen CPUs. I ran on this configuration Half Life 2 copied into a SATA drive - and maxed all out - it was pretty stressful for the system, but I didn't crash once.

@@O_mores Thanks, I saw it last night - great! It is the Intel Cougar Point PCH (H61) SATA Controller. R. Loew's patches don't work here. Either it freezes with the SATA patch or with AHCI the AHCI INF from R. Loew does not fit the device in AHCI mode... In any case, 98 refuses to install on this motherboard. In IDE compatibility mode, only the DVD drive is recognized correctly, but the disk always runs in DOS mode
@@chrisrudi7162 The SATA ports must be set in AHCI mode because your are trying to install standard AHCI drivers. If the AHCI mode is set and still doesn't work correctly here's a tip: make an USB stick bootable with DOS and copy your Windows 98 installation there - Windows folder/Program Files + config.sys should be enough. Boot Windows 98 from the USB stick with your SATA drive connected. Once the installation is done restart and check if everything is OK in control Panel and do some reading tests etc. Now rename Windows folder from the SSD with something like Winold... and copy Windows folder from the USB stick. Now it should work.
@@O_mores In addition to the Intel SATA controller, the Supermicro C7H61-L mainboard also has an ASM1061 controller for 2 SATA3 (6 Gbps) port installed. R. Loew's patch works there. The problem only affects the chipset's Intel SATA controller. The AHCI drivers cannot be installed in AHCI mode. 98 thinks that the driver doesn't match the hardware. So I can't even get into AHCI mode with it. But thanks for the advice. With the ASMEDIA chip it now worked. Everything is fine, the system works perfectly. I only attached the optical drive to the Intel. This saves me an additional SATA controller card and I can use the PCI for something else...
/P I will disable ACPI - modern motherboards have newer ACPI revisions that are not compatible with Windows 98, that's why you get a blue screen. Most of the time that blue screen will let you continue the installation, I did many times when I wasn't aware about "/p i".
No problem. Btw, if you install with /P I the PCI bus won't get installed. This is a big problem when installing drivers. You have to install it manually as shown at the end of this video: ruclips.net/video/OvYUouo8tvg/видео.html

Windows 98 will install with a USB mouse as long the USB chipset is recognized. This of course is not the case with newer motherboards. Anyway you can install it without a mouse (and deal with drivers later) - just use your keyboard Enter/Space to press a button - TAB to jump between buttons and select them. ALT + underlined letter to select an option or a button, e.g. - ALT + N to press the NEXT button.
Well... there is the following switch for Windows 98 setup.exe : "/l This switch enables a Logitech mouse during Setup. " So you should modify the .cab file where lmouse.drv resides and replace it with the lmouse.drv from Windows 3.11 (there is also a link in description to this file) I never tried it, but this switch that forces setup to specifically use a Logitech mouse helps a lot in this scenario...

Well, it totally doable on that Dell. Just make sure SATA works in IDE mode. You can get USB support on this PC by installing NUSB drivers for audio you should find a PCI card.
You still can install Windows 95 or 98 on it. I mean it works on 13th Gen... On 8th Gen is even easier to install Windows 9x - you dont' need #cregfix.
I'm assuming that you have trouble while running MS-DOS from Windows. Did you try to restart in MS-DOS mode and play some games to see it works normally? This way you know is not something specific to your PC (like a dodgy BIOS version) and it's related to your Windows 98 configuration.
There is a whole story with DOS and memory, do you have himem.sys enabled with /M:1 switch like in the video? Some games (like Ultima or Elder Scrolls) require EMS memory to be enabled (you need to use EMM386) and so on.
