If I try to install w95 on my Pc , it will hang at the EULA (licence agreement) screen. There may be an connection with the installed Cyrix 266 MII processor or the onboard video or soundcard of the Eagel mainboard . Any suggestions ? ? ? ? ? ?

Check your CMOS and see if the antivirus is enabled. If so, disable it and format your C: drive to remove the spoiled setup and reinstall. Don't re-enable the onboard AV if you have a decent software antivirus, such as Mcafee, Norton, Dr Solomon, ect. The Trend Chip-away antivirus can still cause some problems even after the O/S has been installed. Still, it is better than absolutely nothing.
