[Windows Protection error on win 95]

My revised recommendation got lost as well.

Try:

PATCHM /M - C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\VMM32.VXD -

Do not leave out the TWO Dashes "-" shown above or the Command will fail.

If you have reinstalled, as LoneCrusader suggested, use:

PATCHM /M

it shows me the option menu again and again =\

@mindingu: it seems the board's database had to be rolled back, so that my question and your answer about your hardware got lost.

I'm sorry to have to ask it, but would you please describe your laptop again?

But wait some hours hence, before doing it, because the forums may not be fully stable yet. If this post disappears, then we'll know it's not.

my laptop is a hel-81 1gb ram hd toshiba ide celeron and the dvd is a Phillips but win 95 recognises it

512 Decimal = 200 Hexadecimal

Where did you use that value? Please give sufficient info.

i use MaxPhysPage=20000 at system.ini on [386Enh] section

it only shows that. i gotta purchase rloews ram? the protection error is due to the ram?

Most likely it is due to the RAM, but there's always the possibility it could be something else.

Go here and download the Demo version of the RAM Patch and install it. It will run for 10 minutes, and should allow you to determine whether you can boot Windows 95 without the Protection Error or not before the time expires.

If it fixes your problem, you will know that the RAM is at fault. Then you can decide whether to purchase the full version, or to reduce your RAM to 512MB or less.

We need a better description of the error, if possible. Does it give any other information other than just "Windows Protection Error?"

You will probably have to reduce your RAM to 512MB. The "RAM tweaks" that are found here and elsewhere never worked for me, and the only way I was able to use more than 512MB was by purchasing and installing RLoew's RAM Limitation Patch.
