I have a Dell Latitude CP, I want to install win95b on it, I have the cd but it,s not bootable from dos, I can only have the cd unit in or the diskett unit in at the same time. first I booted from a diskette,and then changed to the cd unit, Then I typed install, that didn't work so I tryed to change into the win95 dir on the cd, (cd win95)but it say it dont exist? but i know it's there, what am I doing wrong? I am a novice on dos commands:(
