48396 2002-05-12 03:44:00 Ive recently bought a new Computer system (AMD Athlon XP 1800+, 512mb Ram, 60gb hard drive, 64mb Geforce 2 MX Graphics card) I am also a fan of windows 95. My problem is, whenever i install windows 95, and try to boot into it (even the first time it boots) i get an error message and i cant get into it. I have no idea whats happening (luckily i still have windows xp installed). Could it be windows 95 is too old for my system? i would appreciate any help. Guest (0)

I have run into this problem before with Win95 running on high-speed PC's. The only fix I found for it was to use either Win98SE or Win NT / 2000.

www.microsoft.com

Otherwise go with other windows.

I believe there is a free download somewhere to upgrade Win95 to win95B.

That may make the OS compatible with your latest PC.

good luck !

There is no work around for this, except to use nt/2k/xp
