Reply: (edit)Howdy, First stop the install and restart the computer, when it says press so and so key to enter setup, do so. Look for something called the L2 Cache our Level 2 Cache and make sure this is turned on, also make sure if it has the opition, that the L1 cache is turned on as well. Also make sure, if it has one that the anti-virus is disabled, what I mean buy turning it on is its enabled. This is most likely the cause of the problem, you also don't have to load DOS to install 95, just the DOS/Real mode drivers for the CD-ROM drive. Laters, Kevin The Tech Dude.
