When i try to install a win95 on PII-450MHZ with 32mb(SDRAM) Ram i got an following error message `error su04010 cannot open c:\wininsto.400\layout.inf. the file may be missing or damaged or there may not be enough memory to continue. free some memory or increase your swapfile size and then try running setup again'. I got an hard drive with 4.3 GB.

WHat are you installing your 95 from floppy or cd? Make sure that its a frsh machine and that everything is working properly as hardware is concerned. Is your machine detecting all of you 32mb of ram? Make sure the settings in the bios is set right also. I hope this helped you out keep posting if not.....

The big question is, does this error message come up when you try to install, or when you try to boot after the install completes?

One important thing to really think about is the memory compatible with the motherboard. Some motherboards require pc100 SDRAM to run properly and if you are using 66mhz or via versa you will probably run into something like this. Try swaping the memory out for something that is "compatible" with your board.
