Do you mean: 1. applying qemu-fast patch to Win98 guest? --> Not a chance :-) 2. running qemu-fast on top of Win98 host? Well, I haven't tried it personally. But, if you can run qemu-fast on Win98 host, I doubt if qemu-fast can do direct MMU access. The reason is: to do direct MMU access, the developers need to know to request that into host kernel. On Linux or other open source kernel, we can find it out, but on closed kernel, this would be difficult..... The conclusion: just run the usual "qemu" on top of Win98 host regards Mulyadi
