@monilenyan @jk When I backup my workstation, any changed VMs are backed up too. It won't be exactly the same. Oracle has removed Direct 3D support. Vbox provides network, & graphics drivers. You may have to map previous real serial ports to host USB. Select Soundblaster for audio mapped to host audio of any kind. You need to also install Guest utilities for file i/o, copy/paste and transparent mouse/keyboard. Not available for Windows 98, so it is more limited than Win 3.x on 386 emulator.
