re: Trying to install windows 95 Thursday, June 20, 2002 at 3:53 am Windows 95 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Steve Easton (5183 messages posted) Start the machine with the 98 boot disk in the drive and the cd rom should be enabled when it starts. Insert the 95 cd and type d:\ and hit enter. Type cd:\win95 and hit enter, type setup and hit enter. Windows 95 install does not autorun, you have to start it. Also, if your 95 cd is a "Companion" disk you can not do an install with it as some of the necessary files are intentionally left out. ( cd:\ is the change directory switch for DOS, it has nothing to do with the CD drive ) Also if the drive has been formatted, you may need to install the dos files on it. From the a:\ prompt with the floppy in the drive type: sys c: and hit enter.
