Home Page Forums Thread Like Summary - Windows 95 on ct486 machine doesn't boot

Hello, I've installed Windows 95 on ct486 machine for network testing purposes but am unable to complete my installation.

After removing the -flop1 option and rebooting the machine, Windows 95 shows the "preparing your first Windows execution" for a few seconds and then freezes.

Rebooting the machine again Windows can boot in safe mode and show the desktop, no conflicts in Control Panel, but it shows the message "reboot in normal mode to complete the installation".

Rebooting in normal mode it shows the Windows logo for a few seconds and then freezes.

I've used a "standard" 500 mb hard disk, created and formatted using the "DOS 7.1 boot disk" (https://forums.bannister.org/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=86866#Post86866). I haven't specified any video card.

Which is my mistake?

Many thanks.

Ignorance is my problem.Thank you so much for educating me.
It worked.

killing the process is your problem. scrlock toggles the UI keys being enabled, press scrlock then press ESC to exit cleanly, otherwise nothing is saved, no.
