If indeed you have the full win95 disk (and license code), go to bootdisk.com and download a win 95 boot disk. then lay down a fresh load (full) of win95 (stay away from the pb restore disk). It is advisable from the boot disk for you to run fdisk and clean off the hard drive. if this is what you would like to do let us know and we will give you step by step instructions.
