HELP!!!!! This installation SUCKS!!!

[Guest Mtek]

Someone please help me!!

 

I have to install either Windows 95 or 98 on my clients computer.

This is all hos app will work under.

 

No matter what, I get a protection error EVERYTIME!!! In 95 it is

some OIS or something and in 98 it is some NDIS.

 

A bootlog did not help.

 

I have 4 hours left to get this thing done......someone please help

me. Microsofts site has, as usual, helped....

 

Thank you so very much!!

Do we get a cut of what you're being paid to do this?

thread with the information we'd need to be able to assist you properly.

1. You did not describe the PC (speed, RAM, etc.)

2. You did not say which OS CDs are at your disposal.

(E.g. Win98SE was updated to avoid the NDIS error

that prevents Win98 installation on CPUs faster than

about 2.3 GHz.)

3. You did not confirm that you have the correct

startup (boot) floppy for each different OS. (These

can be downloaded free from http://www.bootdisk.com which

lists how many varieties there are.)

Win95 will require a patch with CPU's over 300 mhz.

 

I'd go with win98...though

 

Win98 may also require a patch for some CPU's

Also you might want to use a Virtual machine
