Windows 95 Installation disk does not work

I have a Windows 95 installation disc, and I would like to install Windows 95 on a virtual machine. But when I boot the disk in the virtual machine, it does nothing.

Am I missing a critical step?

I use Windows Virtual PC on a Windows 7 computer.

Thank you!

Even if you manage to install Win 95 under WVPC be aware that there is no component integration for her.  Important features will be unavailable.  Consider using VMWare Player.  The VMWare Player and VMWare tools supported by Windows 95.

  • Cannot activate XP Repair, installation ID does not work on the phone

    Hi all, I recently had to run a repair of Windows XP Edition family due to a driver issue and finally managed to return to the start screen and try to log in, but it wont let me connect you without activation (I suppose some confusion because it is installed on my computer for more than 30 days, but the repair made me have to reactivate).  So, I tried to start safe mode and was able to connect here in the version without networking.  Unfortunately, when I try to activate by phone (no network connection, the default ethernet driver was the cause of all this to start), the automated thing will not take the installation ID that is displayed in the activation page.  I know that I have a valid product key and the original disk, as I used it a year ago to re - install on a new hard drive, but I have no way to actually enter the product key!

    Assumptions on how I can try to work around this problem for long enough to activate online (I use a USB wireless, but the computer must be started in order to establish the connection), or why the crazy long installation ID does not work?

    Thank you very much

    Hi EWool,

    • Have you tried to activate the normal mode?

    You cannot activate Windows XP safe mode and most of the drivers does not work in safe mode.

    I suggest that you contact the support of Microsoft telephone activation to reactivate Windows XP.

  • Acer Windows 7 upgrade kit does NOT work!

    Hi I have an Acer Aspire 5538 (4 GB of RAM and 220 GB of memory) I'm trying to upgrade to Windows (vista and both are family premium). I read elsewhere on the site that someone had the same problem as me and earasing everything on computer seemed to have worked according to your suggestions (so I did and put everything on my USB). Later, I used the "dics ghost" factory, which deletes the database from the computer to the factory settings. So I'm trying to upgrade and the first CD has worked well "Acer upgrade disc. Now, when I put in the second one it says that my pc is not compatible, and that my pc must be x 86 (32-bit) or x 64 (64-bit). I went into the "system information", and it clearly states "x 86 based PC" until I do?. The second disk named: "Windows 7 upgrade media" does not work!

    Even I am confused. Tell you what, download Windows 7 Home Premium. ISO image, burn it to a blank DVD and use your product key to install and activate it.

    Hello rockys_rod,

    To fix it, simply remove your old library files. Then have Windows Media Player find your new files. It will not destroy your music files.

    How to get WMP to re - index your music:

    1. close Microsoft Media Player.
    2. click on Start and then run
    3. in the box, type the following:
    [list] %USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Media Player

    4. click on OK and a folder containing your library files will be displayed
    5. delete all files ending with .wmdb
    6. open Microsoft Media Player
    7. press F3
    8. Select the addresses of your music files
    9 WMP will re-index your music.

    If this does not help, try the FixIt in the article below:
    KB Article ID: 947541 -Windows Media Player stops responding after you install a third-party product that registers its own version of the Wmp.dll file

    Please reply back and let us know if this can help.

  • Windows Server Update service does not work after the installation of KB2720211

    I have a Server 2008 SP1 32-bit Standard, which had the role of Server Update for the Windows software installed connected to a WSUS upstream server and everything worked, with 17 clients connected to him and get everything their approved patches.  It was a new server starting with WSUS added at this time 1 months ago.  He had to be upgraded to SP2 S2008 which I did and WSUS have continued to function.  After being on SP2, there was another 152 patches to be applied and after that WSUS does not work anymore.  It appears 1 patch that has been applied has been KB2720211 that seems to cause problems for a number of people.

    The problem is that the update service does not start.  An error message comes back that the service has not responded in a timely fashion and I can't find the log files anywhere on what it is.  Here is what has been done so far all that in the same issue:

    1 deleted WSUS and restarted and installed it again.

    2 Remove WSUS and Windows Internal Database, restarted and installed it again (using the download of KB972466).

    2.1 install SQL Management Studio and logged to an internal database SUSDB and checked it is not set to single user (I believe it is set for multiuser name but I'm going from memory)

    3. install the KB2720211.

    4. installation KB2734608

    5 remove WSUS and Windows Internal Database, restarted and installed it again (using the download of KB972466).

    I am looking for any information on how to solve what is the question, because there is nothing in the log files I can find and no event in the windows event viewer.  I am ready to start with the server however if there is something I can look at to possibly solve the problem, please let me know.
