Might also try Virtual PC.

I am currently trying to install Windows 98 onto a Core 2 Duo based
box. It freezes on the hardware detection part of the install (about
16 minutes to go). I can run it in Safe Mode but with no mouse and
would like to get past the install phase which doesn't show in Safe.
Once there, I will be able to install such drivers as I can find.

I'm doing this to play games that won't run on a newer OS and will be
triple booting it with Win2000 (no WPA) and a Linux or two.

Is there anything I can do in Safe Mode to force the install past the
hardware detection phase, e.g. kill something in the registry, a file
I haven't seen?
