Windows 95 Today


BenoitRen

Recommended Posts

I always go with K-Meleon on Win95 boxes.

Perhaps you should give it a try.

I quit installing or even suggesting Firefox since ~1.x versions, IMHo it became too much of bloatware and resource hog. Not to mention the bloated pig 2.0 lol

Ah, yes: I do wish Firefox was a bit snappier and more efficient on older computers, although it still runs adequately on hardware back to the Pentium II era or so.

What keeps me from endorsing K-Meleon is the fact that the menu bar of the last few versions I've tried displays garbage on Windows 95 and (from what I've heard) NT 4.0.

Nathan's USB driver has been plugged several times before indeed. It's intended mainly for USB flash drives, though. Not USB hard disks.

Hi everyone. I just joined, and felt that I might as well chime in: I use Windows 95 OSR 2.1 regularly on my Pentium III-based PC to this day.

Yay, I'm not the only one here anymore! Welcome! :lol:

By this point I feel that my doing so is more out of silent protest against the web integration, product activation, DRM, and inefficiency of newer versions than any other reason, but its user interface is quick and intuitive; it doesn't take up many resources, and I can do all the tasks I want to do

I feel the same way, though my primary reason is that I just like to use it over anything else.

The official "requirements" are nothing more than recommendations

That, and what they are willing to support. They don't want to support Firefox on Windows 95. I guess people were lucky that it did work fine until 1.5.x, save for a crashing Import Wizard.

What keeps me from endorsing K-Meleon is the fact that the menu bar of the last few versions I've tried displays garbage on Windows 95 and (from what I've heard) NT 4.0.

Easily resolved by deleting the bmpmenu.dll and rebarmenu.dll plug-ins (names may be slightly different, I'm typing this from memory). At least until K-Meleon 1.0.2. With K-Meleon 1.1, these problems don't exist, but the url bar doesn't work, at least for me.

All it takes is to disable background, rebar menus and something else (Its been described what to do on KM forum like 100 times).

It runs like a charm on 95, and with "Set as Default" since ~0.9 version you can truly use it on a windows without IE or any of its parts at all.

BTW

I may look rather confusing but I don't have anything better. Almost all files I have, with few exceptions. If you would like to know from wich package is any specific file please let me know.

Petr

Nice work Petr. I've recently obtained these updated files for Win95:

vmm.vxd v4.00.1113 for OSR2.0 & vmm.vxd v4.03.1216 for OSR2.1/OSR2.5 [Q179897]

ftp://ftp.chello.pl/pub/chello/Microsoft/KB/Q179/8/97.TXT

tapi32.dll v4.10.1688 for TAPI 2.1 addon for Win95 [Q180906]

ftp://ftp.chello.pl/pub/chello/Microsoft/KB/Q180/9/06.TXT

I will try to get Q172648 explorer.exe v4.00.952, Q153461 pscript.drv v4.00.952 and Q162052 vpowerd.vxd v4.00.1112 hotfixes on the weekend.

I will try to get Q172648 explorer.exe v4.00.952, Q153461 pscript.drv v4.00.952 and Q162052 vpowerd.vxd v4.00.1112 hotfixes on the weekend.

done! Other Win95 hotfixes that are no longer mentioned in the MS KB articles are Q142254 vtdi.386 4.00.951, Q170325 sysdm.cpl 4.00.1112, Q174733 pcimp.pci 4.00.1113 and Q181087.

Updated dfs.vxd, vnetsup.vxd and vredir.vxd files for Q181087 are version 4.10.1691 noted here:

ftp://ftp.chello.pl/pub/chello/Microsoft/KB/Q181/0/87.TXT

The Unidrv.dll 4.00.951 file is included in Win95 OSR2. And DCOM95 version 1.3 includes secur32.dll version 4.10.2177.

Q162052 is for OSR2 only and does not work correctly under pre-osr2 releases of Win95. Those using Win95 original or OSR1 should get Q162211 which has vpowerd.vxd version 4.00.952.

And DCOM95 version 1.3 includes secur32.dll version 4.10.2177.

Ah, that explains why has always been updated shortly after installation without me knowing what did it.

indeed. though DCOM95 version 1.2 (bundled with IE5 and its setup files) had secur32.dll v4.10.1999 while the Q266772 hotfixes for Win95/98fe had secur32.dll v4.10.2000. The Q266772 hotfixes are available from MS KB article 267972.

Hello!

I just found this (still active!) w95 forum!

W95 works very well for me. I think the most critical problem with w95 on new machines is the shutdown bug, which does not allow hard disk to complete. Disabling Windows disk cache and setting a low BIOS HD block move works well, but a more elegant way is a small driver that inserts 2 sec delay at power off. Works very well for me!

http://members.driverguide.com/driver/deta...riverid=1046722

I was hoping that Micro$oft might release W95 for personal use rather than abandon it completely. However, as someone mentioned, all win95 updates are gone! If the latest upgrades gets lost, the usefulness of w95 will be much reduced. Is it still available somewhere? I happen to have the latest w95update page saved, and many of the updates. Would it be of interest (and legal?) to mirror the old w95update site? But some of my updates are swedish versions.

Regards,

Anders

Don't feel alone, Win95 users! I know of *many* individuals that still use Windows 95 *daily*.

Ranging from 286/16mhz to P4/2.8Ghz! DOS gamers all the way to entire businesses that still use it for their in-house networking needs. A 486/dx66mhz with 32megs ram that is used daily for internet access; a 386/sx25 with 16megs ram used daily for word processing.

And I won't even begin talking about the machines at the local library....

Windows 95 is NOT dead; just removed from the public eye. I know of even more people still using Windows 98SE.

I knew 1 person that used ME. They chucked the computer when Vista came out... some people are just born to be losers, I guess. (no offense to actual die-hard ME users- it *is* better than 98SE if you know what you are doing)

W95 will absolutely not run on a 286.

Yep! Since it uses 32-bit code along side 16-bit code in the kernel (and other files), it not gonna go on a 286... :(

In fact, DirectX 8.0a won't install without a Pentium-class CPU... Unless you short circuit the installer CPU detection code...

Then it worked without a problem on a 486 - Gotta love Microsoft!

I did not have a 386 at the time to test it.

For more information see: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/819696

Specifically this statement: "DirectX 8 and DirectX 9 do not support systems with 486-class processors." in the Prerequisites section.

While on the subject of DirectX, I recall that MS released DirectX 6.1 with a suite of updated video drivers similar to Windows 98 and then dropped them in 7...

So to get the new fast DirectX video drivers, 6.1 had to be installed and then 8.0a...

Go hardcore 95'ers! - I hung up my 95 hat when 98SE was released but don't feel bad - You're all part of the 9x family! :hello:

I do have a Windows 95 installed on a few computers. But, I had to move to windows 98 on every computer I'm using for Internet browsing. There are quite many portals using flash. Unfortunatelly, there are no proper flash player available for Windows 95. Older flash player versions are working quite well, but some Internet pages are not compatible with them. So, without a flash player 8 or 9 it is not possible to browse certain sites.
