Windows 98SE is not installable in VirtualBox 6.1.2 with a Ryzen 3000 CPU — at Initial Version

Description
Steps to reproduce:
1) Create a new VM called Windows 98 - everything by default, RAM 64MB, HDD 2GB
2) Attach win98se.iso
3) Install it (enable large disk support, use all defaults)
4) Use K8MTM-Y9PG6-VRQVG-MHDKJ-JG8C6 as a serial key
Hardware detection finishes successfully, restart.
Now the "Setting up hardware" stage begins and everything breaks at this point.
Explorer: This program has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down.
I don't know whether it's a regression or not.
I could successfully install VirtualBox 5.x and Intel Core i5 2500 CPU.
Now I have a new VirtualBox and a new CPU, so it's hard to say.
