Anyone could help me how should I insatll Win95 on a
computer that has Win98. My computer came with Win95 pre-
installed and I upgraded it to Win98. I have only win95
recovery disk and Win95 Companion disk.
When I purchased the computer it doesn't came with Win95
disk.
What should I do,please him.

There are a large number of possibilities, and you haven't provided full
information. For instance, did the W98 installation use a FAT32 partition,
and if so is the W95 recovery disk OSR2 or an earlier version? If it's OSR2
then you can simply format the partition and install W95. If it's an earlier
version and if the partition is FAT32 then you need to remove the existing
partition using FDISK, re-create it as FAT16 and then install W95.

There is information on installing W95 here:
