Installing win98 on a core2duo laptop

Hi everyone! Old games aren't going well with Xp so i tried to make a partition for win98 on my machine.

In fact it will be hard partitioning cause I am planning to install 5 Gnu/Linux systems and for games Xp plus win98. First i tried to install win98 on a clean empty harddisk but after the installation,after the first boot it stucks on a black screen.

There's Win98 drivers for my machine so i can operate i thought. Is there a way to make it work?

SOLVED!

It is solved after installing ubuntu. I used "grub" to boot the win98 and ta daaa!
Ooow it's a shame for that lovely company(!) that win98 can't boot itself while a free software can easily manage it
