Go to Robert Bale's website and read his instructions on Win 95 backup set -- it will tell you exactly how to put the files on diskettes.

You can use pkunzip. First ou must have it on your drive, if you are running win95 or 98
you must put the unzip program in windows. Scroll down to your windows directory click iit to open the files you will see command as one of the files, drag pkunzip to the onr that reads command and drop it there. put your 95 or 98 disk in your cd, make a folder "A" now copy all the 95 or 98 files to the folder "A"
Now go to dos and in the C: type this
pkzip -r -& a:\win.zip c:\a\*.* then press enter make shure you have a blank disk in your floppy drive. The win files will copy to the floppy, when the floppy is full the machine will ask for annother disk and so on untill it complrtes the copy. you must also have pkunzip in the lap you want to put 95 in. In the lap this is what you have to do. first you must be in the c prompt, type this MD 95CABS press enter put in the last disk of the copyies you made. Now
type A: press enter now type pkunzip -d c:\95cabs then press enter, the machine will now ask youu to put in disk #1 then press enter it will install all the files on that disk and when done will ask for the next then the next so on so forth untill all the files are in. Oncer the files are in go to the c prompt type this cd\95cabs press enter when in that directory type setup 95 will the install. Good Luck Dave
