Oct 28, 2018 Open up VirtualBox and select New. A Create Virtual Machine dialog box will appear allowing you to select which operating system it will be using for this virtual machine (VM). You may either select the Windows version, or type Windows 98 and the drop-down selection will automatically change. After this, select Next. How you install the Guest Additions will depend upon what operating system is running the Guest, and if you're using VirtualBox with a GUI desktop or a console-only server.

- Resolution set to wontfix
Hello, I am new to the site, and am not terribly computer savey - so any help would be greatly appreciated.
Have recently switched from very slow dial up to TWC roadrunner cable internet. Worked fine on my XP notebook. Problem started when I tried to connect my Windows 98SE PC via a Linksys router and Belkin wireless card installed on PC. PC was able to find the router, but not the internet.
Two routers and two wireless cards later, I finally gave up and had the cable installed upstairs where the PC is. Now, I still cannot connect to the internet on the PC, using a direct ethernet connection from the modem (no router). However, when I plug directly into the notebook, it still works just fine.
TWC (Cable Co.) has walked me through ping tests. I can ping via IP address, but not by URL address. They have advised that there is something in my computer blocking connection. I have uninstalled all virus protection as best I know how. They referred me to Microsoft, who told me they no longer supoort Windows 98.
Can this problem be fixed?
PLEASE HELP! I'm not sure what's going out the 2nd story window first - the PC or me.

Not to worry. This is a common socket error. If not, worst case scenario is replacing some software.

first get the laptop and download '>Winsock fix, run it on the 98 machine and reboot.
if that doesn't work,
make sure you have your WINDOWS 98 INSTALL DISK.
open add/remove programs and find the 'windows setup' files, uncheck 'Communication' box and click ok.
reboot,
open add/remove programs, stc. and recheck the 'communication' box.
Reboot.
if it's still busted, let us know.
