How much RAM are you using?Sure, 512 MB DDR1 RAM. A Voodoo 5 5500 AGP & Terratec Solo 1 Soundcard.Actually i have windows 98 se, windows me & windows xp working on this machine.When i tried to install windows 95 i had nothing of them installled. I wanted to start with windows 95. But now i have a spare partition for windows 95 to test.
April 16, 201412 yr Author Hmm... Have you tried running FIX95CPU again after you get this Windows Protection Error?
May 8, 201412 yr LoneCrusader. I am hoping you are able to help me. I am in desperate need of breaking the same speed barrier you have been so successful with in Win95 in Win98. I have attempted to use your Win95 patches, but it just won't take and I have been unable to locate the patch that is supposedly out there somewhere. Any direction is apprecaited. I'm currently running a Win98 FE VM on Windows Virtual PC because VirtualBox hates me. But I need, if at all possible, to be able to port this VM to a system with more power than the current one.
May 8, 201412 yr I see no reason for despair at all...Here is the info page at MS: KB312108 and the direct download link for the HotFix.
May 14, 201412 yr @dencorso: That appears to have worked and I now have and Win98 Vm running on a 3.0+ system. Thank you so much.
July 10, 201412 yr I'm getting ready to set up some old systems for testing vintage (over 10 years old) graphics cards, and this site was one of the first google sent me to. This was the second thread. Very useful, thank you for the work you put in to testing and distributing this patch. First system I'll be setting up won't need it (5x86, 32MB ram - until I find another 32MB FPM to add to it), but all my AGP systems are faster than 350 MHz Also I wouldn't have known about RLoew's memory patch if I hadn't found this site. Was about to go to bed when I found this thread, have spent two hours reading! Looking forward to getting some legacy systems running the way I want them to run
April 22, 201511 yr I managed to install from floppy the program to make win95 run. No errors and it confirms windows will now run. It runs in safe mode but I still get the same error message when trying to load normally. What am I doing wrong
