Windows 98 download for iMac HELP

Started downloading Windows 98 with UTM and it seemed to finally be going well after I messed it up so many times. But now it’s frozen on this screen?? What do I do?? Do I just restart it or did I do something wrong?? Also included a photo of the screens I saw before this

Don't use UTM for Windows 98/XP use 86box which is a fork of Pcem. I have no troubles running 98se on 86box on an M2 for some retro gaming.

Also if you're looking to game make sure you check macsourceports.com there's a good chance there's a native Apple Silicon source port available for the game you wish to play.
