Okay, so what is VMWARE and is there someplace I can get a free download?

I have just downloaded ASPLinux, will this Linux plateform run as you have just described?

Thanks again for the info.

You could run Linux as the main OS then use VMware to allow win98 to run on top of linux.

Alternatively you could run it the other way around however, win98 isn't that stable, therefore any crashes in win98 could bring Vmware down along with Linux.


The third option would be to use separate machines, you can pickup second hand PCs relatively cheaply so this might be more cost efficient than the previous options.
