You have the DVD or want to know where to get it?

I googled "100000 drivers" DVD and got quite a few hits. You can try it and see it that's what you're looking for. But why not just go to the hardware manufacturer's site and download what you need there?

As far as downloading OSR 2.5, I googled download 95 "osr 2.5" and found this:

I don't know if that's the cab files from the 95 osr 2.5 full install CD or just the necessary updated files. The downloads there seem kind of small for full install but they're .rar file so may be considerably compressed.

Or you could buy the OSR 2.5 disk on ebay.

You need to identify your hardware (motherboard chipset, video, sound, network, etc), then search for compatible drivers.

Win95B is OSR2.1...if you need/want OSR2.5, you'll need to buy a copy of Win95C. You can NOT upgrade to it.

Forget about that stupid driver DVD. All you needed to do was go to the Gateway site & search for drivers using the model numbers for your systems.

Click the following links, find "My Quick Links" on the upper left, click "Driver Downloads", then select which OS you need drivers for.
