Win 95 Istallation nightmare



I have a 755cx with a dock II docking station and a cd-rom drive.  Since 
I have heard mixed responses about Win95 in the Thinkpad, I decided to 
try it on my machine before buying it.  ( Don't be alarmed, I don't steal 
software, but I like to try it before I buy it ).  Anyway, I borrowed my 
friends CD version of Win95 to install.  I openned my new hard drive, 
installed DOS and the CD driver, upgraded the bios, and proceeded to 
install the Win95using my docking stations and the cd-rom.  The 
installation went fine, but the only problem is, my machine won't boot.

I get an error 'loading a Vdx on hardware item 3 serive b' ( or someting 
like that, I left the error message at home ).

Any help in this area would be appreciated.  My current assumption now is 
that there is a problem with the docking station drivers not being 
present.  I am thinking about buying the disketter version, installing 
it, loading the docking station drivers, and then trying the docking 
station.  But, this is just a guess.
