Windows 95 is so ugly. I forgot how ugly it was :o

Why are you still on 95? WIndows 98's been out for 10 years already :wink:

Which VM did you use? I recently tried Win98 in VirtualBox and had a bit of a hard time. Video and Sound drivers weren't picked up. I would expect even more trouble from 95.

Microsoft Virtual PC 2007

You definitely need to give windows 95 at least 64 MB, Windows 95 will crash more frequently with less, I've also had a couple "Virtual machine has encountered an unrecoverable error and will now reset." Now Windows 95 will recognize up to 640 MB of ram, so if your machine has enough memory use as much as you can with win9x. Windows Me runs pretty well, not so many problems with windows 95. I've also ran Windows XP, Windows 2000, Windows Server 2003 and Windows Server 2008 SMB, and I have also ran Windows 3.1, just remembered that. But I haven't been able to recently becuase I can't get it to run under DOS 6.2
