Windows 95 Disc Won't Boot

Hi all,

I'm trying to install Windows 95 on to an old computer. The computer had Windows 2000 Professional on it already, but that's been removed and Ubuntu is now on there.

Before installing Ubuntu, I tried to boot from the Windows 95 disc but nothing happend. I thought maybe it was because it didn't want to change to an older version, so installed Ubuntu but still no luck. And by the way, yes, it is set to boot from the CD Drive first in the BIOS!

The disc is fine, I'm sure. I've put the 95 disc in to my PC (See system specs and sig) just to check the disc works, and it's fine. No scratches or anything.

Is the old PC too new for Windows 95?!

All I know is it has a Pentium II CPU @ 400mhz

Thanks!!

 

Map Windows 7 Shared Folder to Win 95

Okay .. I figured it all out.

Configuring Windows 95 so it can map Windows 7 shared folders.

You need to update Windows 95 so that it can utilitze NTLMv2 network protocols (and use 128 bit encryption for authentification).
Nothing needs to be done on the Windows 7 machine other than sharing a drive or folder.

On the Windows 95 Machine you will need a local account with the same name and password as on the Win7 machine or in the domain.
The Windows 95 computer does not have to be a member computer in the domain (ie. does not need domain authentification)

1) Install the Distributed File System client for Windows 95 (dfs41w95.exe)
2) Install WinSock 2.0 (w95ws2setup.exe)
3) Install Microsoft Dial-Up Network 1.3 (MSDUN13.exe)
(I wasn't sure what msdun13 does to the TCP/IP stack so I reinstalled winsock2.0 again)
4) Install Internet Explorer 4.01 SP2 / 32 bit (ie40sp2.exe ... you need this or step #6 will termintate without installing)
5) Install Microsoft Installer 2.0 (InstMsiA.exe .. you need this so Windows 95 knows what to do with the .msi file in the next step)
6) Install Distributed Services Client for Windows 9x (dsclient9x.msi)
7) Go into the registry editor (regedit) and go to ...
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/Control
Create a Key named Lsa
Create a DWORD in Lsa named LMCompatilbility with a hex value of "3".
8) Reboot once more.

Mapping a network drive on a Windows 7 machine should now work.
