Which computer is compatible with Windows 98 IBM or Apple?

Neither one is a particular computer (they are manufacturers, not model names), and neither has a product lineup solely compatible or incompatible with Windows 98. IBM made several workstations with PowerPC processors that obviously cannot run Windows 98, and newer Macs have Intel processors that can run Windows 98, though the hardware is not fully compatible.

Do you mean the games say "compatible with windows 98?" and you have Windows XP? Games are backwards compatible. Meaning, if the games say "windows 98", windows 95 is ok (anything before windows 98 will work). But it is not forward compatible--Windows 2000, windows xp, etc. will not work. does this answer?


Can Windows 95 or Windows 98 run on a RISC processor?

No. Windows 95 and 98 are tied to MS-DOS, which is closely tied to both x86 processors and instruction sets, and the BIOS found in most PCs. Windows 95/98 were never ported to another processor, since doing so would necessitate a rewrite of the lower-level components, and would miss the entire point of Windows 9x, backwards-compatibility with legacy apps, altogether. Window NT runs directly on RISC processors such as the the PowerPC, the DEC Alpha, and the MIPS R4000. Windows CE also runs directly on RISC processors such as the MIPS, ARM, and Hitachi SuperH processors. Any version of Windows intended to run on an x86 processor could run inside an emulator such as Bochs, DOSBox, RealPC, Transformer for the Amiga, or some other x86 emulator.
