- Very probable the person didn't have his computer configured correctly or needed
- more base ram (1st 640k). Just like me. In fact while running this "95"
- version, I'm looking back at win 3.1 with fond memories. Sure it crashed, but
- that one I could fix. This one crashes soooo Fucking often. And I can't fix
- it. Thats the worst part. Sure, the solution you would think would be to
- reinstall. I did that. Now I've got no sound as well. The os says the drivers
- are there. It says the hardware is there. I get sound out of dos. But out of
- win 95 - NOPE! Oh and best of all, It crashes more often now.
-
- Win 95 Sucks. My advice- Don't buy it, don't run it.
-
- I read somewhere you can run 32 bit progs on a 16 bit os if you have win32s. I
- think I need them.
