#Virtualbox Additions Windows 98 Cd install
How do I start from a blanker hard drive than creating a brand new virtual hard drive in virtualbox? I haven't installed anything, this is literally me just trying to install windows 98 for the first time in a brand new virtual machine? what software would I be installing when I can't even access the desktop for the first time upon a fresh os install? It is also possible you may have secondary, incompatible, copies floating around in locations other than the system folder.Įither way, I would strongly suggest just starting completely over with a blank hard drive. Probably you installed some software that "updated" one of the files to an incompatible version. You have a mismatched version of SHEL元2.DLL or SHLWAPI.DLL. If I am having multiple files missing from the install for some reason, is there some way to find them all out or would I have to fix each one individually and then see if any further errors occur after each said: I'm going to be totally honest, I'm pretty new to learning the inner workings of operating systems, and I didnt know what a cab file was until just now googling it based on your answer. Use the extract command for the applicable cab file, provided that you copied them to the HDD or loaded CD-ROM drivers, then copy the missing files to the WINDOWS and/or SYSTEM directory.

You'd have to replace the files from DOS (since the issue only affects the Windows environment). Installing win98 directly over the old install worked for one session before the files disappeared on the next boot-up. I'd copy the files from the cabs back into the WINDOWS and SYSTEM folders but I'd get a registry corruption BSoD on bootup. I'd be missing win.com, dblhlp.sys and two other files after installing Office 2000 or accidentally installing the XP version of WindowBlinds 4.7.

I did have some weird issues with Windows 98 SE Retail Full when I installed it on my ThinkPad T41.

I have the same ISO ("Windows 98 Second Edition.iso", with a modification date of 08:40, right?) and I found ole32.dll in WIN98_38.cab. The same sequence of actions provides a different result for me than everyone else. getting errors that the guy doing the tutorial doesnt get. If these dll's were never included with windows 98, then why am I having an error referring to them from a fresh install? Where would my Os installation be expected to get its files from other than the installation media? This is really infuriating because I haven't done any crazy power user stuff, I'm literally just following a tutorial to install the operating system, following the exact steps that are shown, and I'm just. So I guess my question is, just how many dll files are missing from this site's iso, where can I find them, and how would I add them to my virtual hard drive without having access to it from within virtualbox?

However, the iso provided on this site does not contain any file called "ole32.dll" when I look at its contents. Searching for the details of the illegal operation performed by explorer (which was "EXPLORER caused an exception 6d007eH" if you're interested) revealed that it is caused by the OS missing something called ole32.dll, and the provided solution was to copy a fresh version of this file from my windows 98 cd, which obviously would be the iso I downloaded from here.

Since explorer is shut down before I can actually access the desktop, it is impossible for me to try fixing this from within the OS, so any solutions that require the os to be running are unusable. Pressing ok to dismiss the alert then causes explorer to say it performed an illegal operation and will be shut down. The installation process runs fine without any problems, but then when it tries to load the desktop for the first time it pops up with an error message saying "the SHEL元2.DLL file is linked to missing export SHLWAPI.DLL:tFileAttributesA.". This is concerning the Windows 98 SE OEM (full) iso listed near the top of the windows 98 releases page on this site.
