Hello, I am trying to install W98 on a Lenovo M900 or M910. In the BIOS, the boot is set to Legacy and I can also boot from a USB stick. I have created a 20 GB partition, MBR and FAT32, and W98 is also installed. I have tried it with and without DMA. The hard drive is set to AHCI, unfortunately I can't change that. After the installation is complete, the system reboots and the Windows logo appears, but then it doesn't continue. When I press TAB, only the cursor flashes. If I boot from the stick and select boot from local hard drive, I see a boot error at the bottom. The 20 GB partition is active, MBR and FAT32. Does anyone have any ideas?
