Installation[edit | edit source]

This build can be installed from CD, 3.5-inch or 5.25-inch floppies. The retail CD versions of this build are not bootable and require a Windows 95 boot floppy with a hard drive partitioned and formatted before the installation (bootable CDs were not common, and the El Torito standard was too new by Windows 95's release). Some OEM CD versions might be bootable and be able to partition and format a hard drive. The 5.25-inch floppy version is only available as upgrade.
