Step One: Download Mac OS ISO Image file
As you are on a Windows PC, you don’t have access to Apple Store to download Mac OS. You need to download Mac OS from an external trusted source. You can download the latest Mac OS Catalina 10.15 or Mac OS Mojave 10.14 Installer files from our website.
Step Two: Download Virtual Machine for Windows
There is various free Virtual Machine software available for Windows such as Oracle’s VirtualBox. But I recommend using VMware Workstation Pro, although it’s a paid software but you can use it free for 30 days trial. You can download Vmware Workstation Pro 15 from this link.
Step Three: Install VMware Patch to run Mac OS X
- Go to the VMware macOS Unlocker page to download. Click the Clone or download button, then click Download ZIP.
- Power off all virtual machines running and exit VMware.
- Extract the downloaded .zip file in step 1.
- On Windows, right-click on the win-install.cmd file and select Run as Administrator to unlock. Also, run win-update-tools.cmd for VMware tools for macOS.
- After the unlock process is complete, run VMware to create the macOS virtual machine.
Step Four: Create an Apple Mac OS Virtual Machine
- Click File, select New Virtual Machine…
- Select Typical (recommended) and click Next.
- Select I will install the operating system later. and click Next.
- Select Apple Mac OS X in the Guest operating system section and select macOS 10.14 in the Version section. Click Next.
- In the Name, the Virtual Machine window, name the virtual machine and virtual machine directory. I personally would put it on a different drive than the system drive.
- Select the size for the new virtual disk in the Specify Disk Capacity window. This is the virtual disk to be installed macOS. Click Next and then Finish.
Step Five: Run you Mac OS Virtual Machine with VMDK or ISO file
After successfully creating an Apple Mac OS Virtual Machine, you need to run the machine with an actual Mac OS file such as Mac OS Mojave 10.14 ISO file or Mac OS Mojave 10.14 VMDK Image

If you face any driver issues, Try installing VMware tools from the VM tab in the VMware window. Also, I would recommend assigning a minimum of 4GB RAM and 40GB of Hard Disk to your Virtual Machine.

Windows 98
Installation is similar once you get started and you can use my VPC2007 TechRef for the actual OS installation. See this PDF for VPC7 Win98 installation startup.
VPC7 is missing a virtual floppy drive, to install Windows 98, you'll need a way to boot your VM, partition and format the VHD before you can install Win98. I've made an ISO of my Win98 boot floppy. Download here: win98seboot.iso in ZIP format.
Windows NT
Installation is simpler than Win98 above, assuming you have a bootable Windows NT 4 CD. Installation PDF

Plan on using Windows 95 with VPC 2007? Make sure you get or keep a copy of the VPC2004 Additions. No Windows 95 VM Additions are included with VPC 2007. See more details here: Why won't the Virtual PC 2007 Virtual Machine Additions load on Windows 95- -VPC Guy Ben Armstrong, VPC Program Manager, explains in his blog.

VPC-Win 5.2 Tech Ref v1.3(ZIPped PDF) Its full of relevant info for VPC, while I wrote it for 5.2, a huge amount of it is directly, or almost directly usable with VPC2004. Please note that some modification necessary to use guides for VPC2004, for example, VPC2004 does not create pre-formatted disk images so you must pre-format a Win9x/DOS VHD before you can install the OS.
Compare my Differencing Disk diagram (p18 in the TechRef) to the one in the Virtual Server Admin's guide (under Using Diff. Disks). (My original Word doc of this was created Dec 10, 2002 ;-) )

IMPORTANT!! VPC for Mac does not work on Intel Macs
Windows 98 Ready VM for VPC7, similar to the one for VPC200x above. You need a Windows 98 CD and license to finish the install (The VM is configured to boot to C:, and has CD-ROM drivers already loaded for a pain-free Windows 98 install) This won't work with the Win98 included with older versions of VPC.
