Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/oerg866/win98-quickinstall/issues/64

I found this program and I was bored so i decided to give it a whirl.

I tried it on my Acer Aspire ZG5 AOA110 (110 = uses PIF IDE, 150 = uses SATA). This is the closest i have got to pre-XP Windows on here.

I flashed the ISO onto a USB and that part worked fine. Booting it though..

Booting in safe mode made it work but I had to turn it off.

Booting it in normal mode would get to PnP, then non-PnP, thrn again PnP but the second time it locks up and freezes with no disk activity.
