Ok.

So how many floppies are there?

Have you tried a web search and eBay?

1. Download a 95 boot disk.
2. Scandisk the first disk you have; Find a larger file you have a copy of to delete 
first as it is packed. Note any damaged files. You should be able to copy from a 
CD any that are damaged (use new disks to rebuild), except maybe "Setup.exe" and 
"Winsetup.bin".
3. Disk 2 should be one file -- Precopy2.cab
4. Boot, swap in disk 1 and type setup.

is there a website i can go to, i do not have a cd or cd drive,. is there a site i can go to to copy or download the files for disk 1 & 2 or win95 upgrade?

You can't copy the Windows cab files of the CD to a floppy there are 1,676Kb, won't 
fit.

I believe they used to do a floppy version of Win95 but I've never seen one.

i have the full orginal set of win95 and 95 upgrade disks, bought them when i was working for compusa in 1995.

The first two disks in those sets should be nearly identical. Are all four floppies 
damaged? If not, use the set that has a good disk 1. Use the other disk 2 when asked 
-- Precopy2.cab should just be standard drivers.
You can get a boot disk at bootdisk.com, but that is NOT a setup disk. If both disk 
1's are damaged, you might take a win95 cd to a friend's/the library and e-mail to 
yourself the files you need.
NOTE: The first two disks should fit on a standard floppy.

I also have the WIN95 disk. My wife LOVES the "Hover" game, but it won't play on XP. Any solutions? Thanks

Hi David:

If you don't find your replacement floppies, here are some
tips for installing Win95 on machines without a CDROM:
