There are tools that allow millennium's system file protection to be disabled thus allowing custom desktop themes to run. My method is install windows 98se with system memory set to 512mb install autopatcher with all its unofficial goodiesĪfter its done not upgrade or install a *windows millennium retail or oem but **millennium step up edition it respects unofficial patches and extends memory support to 2gb with custom system.ini file tweaking. Hypervisors prefer high res and colour for windows in general.Ī has heaps of sources to build it and other places online with google. GPU driver is a reference generic type that allows opengl but not direct x. Win Me step up respects 98se so much that even windows 98 web view desktop wallpaper has windows 98 on it (must be a bug) Windows 7 superbar in Windows millennium whoah! Media player 10 in an os that supports windows media 9 I'm not going to go into technical discussion of how to build it just an overview with a few screenshots. I built a win9x virtual machine in virtualbox that supports 32mb GPU ram and uses full 2gb ram.
