Protection error

Eric for the windows memphis

Why, when I install windows 95 (rtm), finish and restart, do I get a "protection error"?

DeFacto

Likely because the CPU is too fast, which is a known issue. There's a fix available online if you do a bit of googling, though it's best applied right after the first reboot during setup.
