no reboot, cannot terminate a process without name, after terminating it it ends in "Windows is shutting down" state. Next reboot is OK.

All install were to Virtual PC this time but I have seen them or real PCs too.

Does anybody had similar problems? How to avoid these RUNDLL errors?

Windows 95 install problems (and maybe also 98, I'm not sure): During one of the reboots the CD-ROM is not available, but Windows Setup needs many networking files from it. Is there any workaround other than copy all files to HDD?

Regards,

It might be a hardware problem...

With Virtual PC?

Yes.

Yes.

You may receive random general protection (GP) fault error messages in Mmsystem.dll. You may also receive one of the following error messages:

Rundll - This program has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down.

RUNDLL32 caused a General Protection Fault in module MMSYSTEM.DLL .

This problem can occur if the "drivers=mmsystem.dll" line is missing from the [boot] section of the System.ini file.

Did you ever received the message like this mmsystem.dll???

Might be with hardware problem?..

If random, it's more likely to be a malfunctioning processor. A bad processor overclock or overheating can cause this symptom.

I've had the networking problem before.

Also, if you install the ie4 shell update on a computer that has win95 installed, the start menu won't work and folder options is restricted. Does anyone know why?
