How have you configured the ram available to win98? For some reason I
find it needs at least 128 to be happy, but if you can load the whole
mess into ram, that would be good. Give it 512 for more bang. Also
check virtual CPU usage. If there is a virus, you will find it up
around 95%. Wipe and start over is the standard winblow trouble shoot

Humph. I wonder what's wrong with my setup. I have VPC 5 running on
a 1
Ghz G4 with 1.5 Gb of RAM and OS X 10.3, and Win98 is unusably slow.
Like
you click a menu title and count the seconds until it drops down.
Seriously, it's slower than a 386DX25 I used to have to run Windows
3.1 on.
Virus or bad Win98 install or something? Should I wipe the virtual
partition and start over? I have been using Macs forever and consider
myself pretty good with them, but Windows hates me and this has me
stumped.
