I Need 95C

NTL1991

Hello Everyone! I have 2000, but I have no CD-R's to burn the ISO to, and my disc is really scratched. I cannot install 2000 from DOS, even if I use WINNT.exe because it says that it cannot install the OS Loader or something like that. Does anyone have 95C so I can install on my FAT32 Partition, becasue I also have a NTFS one but ME bootdisk wont delete it under NON-DOS partiton using FDISK. Then I can install 2000 on my NTFS partition and upgrade 95 to 2000? Thanx

NTL, that 2000 cd is self bootable....

Thanx WingZero. I will try the ISO. I dont have any CD-R's on hand so I cannot use the 2000 bootable CD feature. Thanx --Nick

yes... yes you can. Simple mount the ISO image in the VMware program.... go into the bios settings and make sure the cd-rom is set higher then the hard drive in the boot menu.

WingZero, It wont let me download it... It's OK anyway. I put my HDD in my Compaq and extracted the ISO onto the HDD and the 95 Setup cabs and files, then i installed 95A (what I have) then did a clean install of 2000 Pro. I had to go into the Computer Managment in Xp to delete the Partitions on My HDD to make a Fat16 and an NTFS one. I installed 2000 before on the same PC, then installed IE 6 and formatted my c: drive (2000 main files is on d:) and I guess there were boot files on C: and it wouldnt start, so i made sure I backed up 2000...

That approach is rather odd, but as long as it works....its all good.
