Windows 95 from a Window 98 boot disk

by dsnethen . Updated 25 years, 9 months ago

I used a Win 98 bootdisk to install Windows 95 and it worked to a point. I received many messages about being unable to locate (for example, vnetsup.vxd;nwlink.vxd and so on) being referenced either in the Registry or system.ini. During the install,I am prompted to insert the Win 95 CD and hit okay for certain dll’s. The path shows up as D:win95. The files are never found. I can skip through all of these, but when I restart, I get the messages above regarding the various *vxd files. All I wantto do is install Windows 95 from a Windows 98 bootdisk. Any help? Should I blow everything clean and start from scratch?
