Have you researched the RAM issue to see IF it's the key to your problem? as for
my current problems. I managed to get rid of all but one of the conflicts I mentioned
previously by manually changing the memory ranges but can't get one address to change
on the ethernet controller. Also the PCI cardbus controller wasn't designed for Win95
nor was the Crystal audio device so I can't find drivers and don't know how to hack
(if possible) the ones I have for 98-XP. I've found more than one way to install
inf files but the ones I have will not install. The system hangs up on "other locations"
when I try to manually update the driver, it won't recognize the inf info since it's
made for Win98 and of course will not install so I can't use the drivers either.
I think Win95 is toast on my Latitude C610 and I'll need to switch to Win98 if I
want the PC to work with an OS other than 2K & XP. At least the desktops all run
on 95. I grabbed Aida a while back, like it, verrry snoopy indeed! Not a part of
this thread but I did get Win95 to run on a 2600 mHz Dell 8300 last year but something
wasn't right, very slooow, so I reloaded the OS - no longer will run. Have no idea
what I did to enable it, maybe I'll stick to that project instead and try getting
it to run again. (Perhaps I can ask Congress for a one billion dollar stimulus to
get Win95 to run on the C610 :)
