Answer» I have a 20Gb HDD that I formatted to bare metal. Using an ASUS 440LX MB.
Want to install W95, so that I can load WinXP PRO up-grade.
Tried getting a BOOT-disk off the net. T
The CD-ROM (Matsushita/Panasonic CW-8576-B) won't work (though I can hear it spinning).
I have disconnected the SECOND HDD and CD-ROM and corrected the CMOS in an effort to simplify things.
Any hints?
Peter Johnston......I could be wrong .......but I dont believe you can go from Win 95 to Win Xp pro with an UPGRADE. I believe the upgrade is designed to upgrade
Win 98 , win 98se , ME , win 2000 . you should load win 98 or one of the others and then upgrade...... that will work.
You will need a win 95 boot disk to reload the necessary drivers you need because once you have formatted the hard drive there arent any LEFT to make the cd drive active . You can get a boot disk here ......
http://www.bootdisk.com/ I'm not sure if you need Win 95 original or win95 B
hope this helps,
let us know
