Can't these drivers be found online anyway? Is it possible someone has ever tried to do this and ran into the same problems? I have a Win98 SE disc from back in the day, and I don't know anything about it being hacked or something like that. I didn't get that part about the drivers: does Win98 come with them or not? In my case, it asked me for the disc, and when I inserted the disc, it couldn't find it. I thought I could, at least, select it on a list, but AMD isn't listed as a manufacturer. When I try to launch the internet icon, Windows says it can't find any modems in my system. Thanks for the help, but I've tired AMD PCnet-FAST III and Windows won't detect it.

Windows 9x retail and upgrade versions work as well, just like generic OEM versions. Those discs are no longer available from Microsoft, unfortunately. I've installed a number of Windows 9x VMs from MSDN CDs without trouble.

If your Windows 98 SE disc doesn't have drivers for AMD PCnet, it's either some damaged or hacked up version of Windows or possibly some heavily modified OEM version only suitable for installation on specific hardware.

Windows 9x also comes with drivers for this NIC and will detect it automatically during installation. Whoever told you you needed to change the NIC type was pulling your leg, because the default for Windows 9x guests (AMD PCnet-FAST III) works fine.

I found that the most updated browser available which still runs on Win98 was Opera.ДЄnother point to bear in mind is that Win98 networking is slightly harder to configure than XP and later - not quite so many self-configuring features, so Google is your friend when it comes to fixing a specific Win98 networking issue. Of course the Internet Explorer version native to Win98SE is way out of date and can't display a lot of modern websites properly. The setup CD had native drivers for this NIC. I'm not using NAT, though that shouldn't make any difference really). My VM simulates a PCnet-FAST III (Am79C973) adapter, and I'm bridging to my host NIC (i.e. I had no particular trouble gettings Win98 networking to run - and I just checked that it's still working, which it is. There's no requirement to change the network setting to NAT, although it certainly is usually the easiest to set up, provided you had working internet on your host PC.
