Windows 98 worked fine with a 1.4GHz Tualatin Pentium III (socket 370) and 
i815e chipset. It also worked just fine on a Pentium 4 and I suspect would 
work with a Pentium D or Core Duo using only one CPU core.

Windows 98 was supposed to support a maximum of 2GB of memory, however it 
has a bug in the Vcache driver which causes problems unless you limit the 
memory it can use to 1 or 1.5GB.
