When I try to open the DEB it says it conflicts with with the existing OSE package. Should I remove OSE and install this one? Will my existing VMs still work?

I don't know for sure the old VM's will work, but I believe so. In any case, removing the OSE should not do anything to your VM's and configuration settings, as neither will installation of the non-OSE version. So, at worst, you can reinstall the OSE version and continue to use your old VM's, but I doubt you'll need to do that.

I did not really get Windows 98 to run properly in VirtualBox ... although Windows 2k, XP and Vista worked. This was despite using the binary version ... rather than the OSE version of VirtualBox. An uninstall and reinstall of VirtualBox may not help much ... I also found that Win 2k would only work on a FAT32 partition for me in VirtualBox. Not a major problem for me since I tend to use Linux these days

@Jonathan
So when 98 didn't work for you what were you running? OSE or not?
I have Win 2K working on an NTFS partition...

I should have Win98 on one of my old MSDN discs. I'll try installing that with the latest binary VBox later today when I get back from my grocery shopping. I'll let you know what I find then.

Good question ... using Arch within the last 12 months ... I have not tried installing for a while because I got everything I needed to work in either Win 2k or using dosbox. At the time when I looked at documentation Win 2k was supported but Win 98 support was questionable. I doubt Win98 support has improved a great deal since ... since MS removed support for Win 98.

There are some programs I try to use that I can't get working in 2000. The DVD decrypter installer says it's corrupt, even if I use the switch to skip the check on the installer package.

I cannot get that program to run in Windows 2000.
