I know it sounds weird but I need to run some Win ME/98 software on a Win 10 machine.

Has anyone managed to do it or recommend anything ?
Win 10 pro has its own VM capability but I'm not sure if its any good for this.

Any idea or thoughts ?

Cheers

I've no idea on ME/98 but I use/d Oracle VM for XP when on windows 10, not had any problems since I first went onto Windows 10. (wasn't compatible then)

The further you go back, you get into memory management and even 8bit memory address limits.
I don't know but I'm assuming it will determine what actually will work.

i think it not good, i was install window 10 on my laptop but the system so slow and i must comeback with win7

Windows 7 wouldn't be the end of the world. I'm quite happy with Win 7 although it seems Microsoft are looking to end support for it in the next couple of years.
