Re: Windows 95 VM "Windows protection error"

$

I hope you mean the VM Tools installation not the OS installation, don't you?  But I'd still like to know what are  the Windows95.disks 5 and 6 they require me to insert. Is it simply the Windows 95 installation disk or something else? I may not be an expert on computers,( even though I have been working with computers for more than 20 years!) but sure VMWare is darn complicated!

I thought that with the insight I gained from  the 1st installation, I could now install it easily on another computer,  but I was wrong.

The other computer is an  older Dell with an AMD 64 processor, also on Windows 7, but I am back at square 1! I cannot get the Win 95  setup running  after the initial fdisk and format c:. It always baffles me which drive letter to choose: some are D;, some are R: . I do also get a " Non-system or disk error " message which I have never got before, And yet, I am following the same "hard-won" procedure as in the other  computer! I think if I keep running into problems like this , I'll take a look at another program like VM Box or others!

I do appreciate your help. May be If I can't get it right on the 2nd computer on my own, I will post to this Forum again, with more specific description of the problems I am encountering.

 

Thanks
