Re: Windows 98 vmware

One of the main features of virtualization is to protect your hardware from viruses and malware. The more actual hardware you give your VM access to, the more damage a rogue program can do to your system. That's why hardware is emulated in a VM instead of using your actual hardware. If you get …
