You cannot upgrade to NT from 95. I generally give people the choice of installation. 95, NT or Dual boot.

To install NT in dual boot mode where you can select from either OS. Boot into win95 and start the NT installation from there.

As NT and 95 have different registries you will have to reinstall all software again in NT mode.
