Hi.

I would just like to know if anyone has had any luck with Win98 on an HP Pavilion G6 Series A3Y48EA G6-1270si laptop?

I got it installed and it is working but without any drivers, which means no cd/dvd drive, no wifi or ethernet connection, 640x480 screen resolution and so on.
I've seen so many videos on youtube how Win98 is being installed on hardware from the late 2020's with working drivers.
I would like to create a dual boot laptop with Win98 and XP to play old classics like Monkey Island, ect.
I know it would be easier to use a virtual machine but I would love to get it working on hardware that I already have.

These are the specs for my laptop:
HP Pavilion G6 Series A3Y48EA G6-1270si Black and Grey Notebook,
AMD RS880M chipset,
AMD Quad Core A6-3400M 1.4GHz 4MB L2 cache Processor,
4096MB DDR3-1333 SO-Dimm Memory (1x4096),
750GB 5400rpm SATA Hard Drive,
DVD Super Multi Writer optical drive,
15.6" WXGA HD (1366 x 768 resolution) Brightview LED Backlit Display,
AMD Radeon HD 6540G2 Dual GPU with 1GB dedicated graphics,
802.11b/g/n Wireless Lan,
10/100 Mbit Ethernet LAN,
Bluetooth,
Webcam.

Please help!

Thanks.
