THANK YOU! It worked I'm so glad I've gone through so many tutorials lol

[chickpea]

THIS IS AMAZING!! I used it on my macOS and it worked just as well!

At first, I wasn't able to do this, but then I followed you step by step and it worked. Thank you.

F'ing fantastic, thank you! I had one issue though with the 95 install failing... something to do with one of the devices. I just reset and started the installation again, and it succeeded. Following that, the audio wasn't working, I opened the Control Panel, selected "Add new hardware", let that do its thing, and it fixed the problem!

I had given up ages ago but this video actually made it work! I can now experience things that I'm too young to have experienced.

Great instruction, thank you!
Only one minor problem (and how to fix it). The installation of Windows itself failed as Scandisk reports discrepancies for reported size for all the previously installed DOS-files. To avoid this issue install Win95 with the command "setup /is" instead of "setup". This step is shown about 16.30 into the video. This skips the automatic run of Scandisk, producing an error message for every DOS-file. Quote from SETUP.txt:

"Problems Running ScanDisk

If you get a message during Setup saying that there is not enough memory
to run ScanDisk, free some conventional and/or upper memory, and then run
Setup again. If you have MS-DOS 6.x, try running MEMMAKER to free memory.

If you still don't have enough memory, or if you have other problems while
Setup is running ScanDisk, then you can bypass ScanDisk in Setup by running
Setup with the /IS option. To do this, type the following command:

setup /is

NOTE: Bypassing ScanDisk during Setup is not recommended. If you do,
there may be problems with your hard disk that could cause Windows 95
not to install or run correctly."

Brilliant guide, before this i was stuck at the installation, but with this video everything was super easy. Now the nostalgia can come :)

[TheHamster]

this is my favourite tutorial of my life!
YOU SPEACK VERY CLEAR AND I UNDERSTOOD EVERYTHING!
THANKS BUDDY!
I FOLLOWED EVERY WIDNWOS 95 TUTORIAL CREATED BY YOU!

[abacab]

EXCELLENT tutorial! I´d just advise people to use the EXACT Win95 ISO as you... I had another one that didn´t work.

[twilightvision]

YES THIS TUTORIAL WORKS!!! Thanks soo much I wish you the best!!

[jumrum]

thank you so much, i tried a windows 98 tutorial and was greeted with tons of errors, but this worked flawlessly

[sleepinggdogs]

Your tutorial worked flawless for me! 10/10

[Ave_Cezar]

Massive THANK YOU for the instructions, been waiting for a few years for a video like this one!

[NemoK]

Thank you! That copying the iso to the C drive did wonders.

[BCSWowbagger]

I was having a nightmarish time installing, but this video got me 95% of the way there.

If you run into the "SUWIN Caused a General Protection Fault" error (which was my single bump in the road):

1. Exit the Windows 95 setup program.
2. Turn off the virtual machine.
3. Go to the VirtualBox Settings for this virtual machine.
4. Under System >> Acceleration, change Paravirtualization Interface to Legacy.
5. Restart the virtual machine.
6. Start Setup again (as this video describes at 16:10). Continue following this video's instructions, except:
7. When prompted by the Setup program, do not use Safe Recovery; insist to Windows that you want to do a clean install.

It worked for me after that.

[Minetheground]
