dickster Posted September 13, 2003 Share Posted September 13, 2003 Since you are online now, you have use of another computer. You could download it and burn to floppy or cd, then copy it onto the bad system. Link to post Share on other sites
gordesky1 Posted September 13, 2003 Author Share Posted September 13, 2003 will that win95 update work? Link to post Share on other sites
kd5 Posted September 14, 2003 Share Posted September 14, 2003 When I did payroll for this certain company, it was with Windows 95. They elected to allow internet access (trial only...), and I used a free ISP to connect to the net, but couldn't make the connection without the upgrade. So I downloaded it (then v1.3, & smaller size...) to a floppy at home, upgraded DUN at work, & connected! So, it is definitely worth a shot... -kd5- Link to post Share on other sites

kd5 Posted September 15, 2003 Share Posted September 15, 2003 (edited) I think you'll be pleased with the increased stability of XP. There are a couple of things you can do to make XP more user-friendly and not so much of a resource hog. http://www.blkviper.com/WinXP/servicecfg.htm http://www.labmice.net/windowsxp/default.htm http://www.tweakxp.com/ Take note: Windows XP requires a little more memory to operate smoothly. 256mb of RAM should be enough, but more is better. Have fun! -kd5- Edited September 15, 2003 by kd5 Link to post Share on other sites
