Mark, I recently switched to W95 from W3.11 on my 755cx. I have a CD-ROM in my Dock II Station so hoped to load from the W95 CD. I called IBM first and they strongly suggested loading W95 from floppies. It seems like you can, in theory, use an external CD-ROM to load W95, but it probably invites problems. I ended up using the floppies and, using IBM's "Installing Microsoft Windows 95 Upgrade on IBM 755CD[et all]", had no problems with the install. As much as it pains me to admit it, I do like W95. Hope this helps. Joe Wilson -- Joseph C. Wilson jcwilso@ibm.net Milwaukee, WI Russell, Mark S wrote: > > I am planning to switch from Win 3.1 to Win95. I am buying a pcmcia > cd-rom for my TP760C.
