Hi,
I have a old NEC Versa 4050C laptop, 90MHz Pentium, 40MB ram, 4 GB HD, and would like to format the hard drive and then install a fresh version of Win95. I have a removable/swappable CDRom Drive and Floppy Drive. I'm not 100% sure that the CD Drive is capable of booting off a CD. I put in a XP Home CD to test it, and the CD drive whirred but after a long lag Win95 loaded.
I cannot reinstall or uninstall the current Win95 due to someone saving space and not copying the uninstall files.
I have never done a format, so as much detail as possible would be very appreciated.
Thanks, your time is extremely appreciated.
P.S. at some point in time I'd like to install Linux as well. Possibly as DualBoot if the computer can handle that. If I installed Linux at a later date, would I need to reinstall Win95 again or would it install along side Win95?
Thanks again
