Windows 98/ME crashing on startup AND cd/floppy drive issues

[VVgamer135]

Hello,
I am experiencing this issue with many windows 9x kernel emulations, but it is especially bad on 98/ME. I will start and empty VM with a cd and boot floppy in the drive, and I receive an error that "drive1 does not exist" or "Error trying to restore removable drives: Failed to access drive image path." but when I remove all virtual floppys and CDs, I get this error:

(qemu-x86_64-softmmu: -qmp tcp:127.0.0.1:4000,server,nowait: Failed to find an available port: Address already in use)

Is this a fixable issue? Is it because I have more than one 9x virtual machine? I would prefer if I could fix the non-existent drive issue too.

Edit: is the windows 9x kernel even supported?
