Re: Installing Win95 on 755CE
Mark, If I recall, the problem is the mouse. You need to start the setup
program for W95 and tell it "no mouse". In fact, turn off the trackpoint
with a ps2 command from the other drive if you can. After the installation,
go ahead and re-activate the mouse. There is something about the way the
Win mouse driver scans the ports that locks up the system.
