I have an old NEC laptop with Windows 95 Base release. I
also have a desktop clone with Window 95 OSR 2.5. I would
like to upgrade the laptop to OSR 2.5 to try to use a
wireless NIC card.
Can I extract the needed files from the W95 OSR2.5 machine
to the W95 Base machine? Which files are they or is there
a web site with a list or instructions? I do not have the
original disks. They got "lost in the fire" (divorce).
Micrsoft had a page to download SP1 but that only gets me
to OSR 1. The NIC cards appear to need OSR 2+ for their
drivers.
Any emailed advice would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Eric
