Windows 95 Osr 2.5 Iso
Comments
I recently purchased a copy of what I believe was the last of release Windows 95, Windows 95 OSR 2.5. I've trying to install the OS for the last few days, but with no success. After creating the virtual machine, I inserted the CD-ROM as instructed, but it failed to boot from the CD drive. Hdri studio rig free download. Pci simple communications controller driver for samsung electronics. During setup, no matter what ISO i use, it says 'Please insert the disk labled 'Windows 95 Disk1', and then click OK.' I have the disk inserted but when I click OK it says 'The File insert file.dll could not be found on 'Windows 95 Disk1'. But Windows 95 was not a pure '32-bit' OS: It was still based around the framework of Windows 3.x, 2.x and 1.x. It still ran on top of DOS, but bundled its own special 'Windows 95' DOS (AKA MS-DOS 7). It could even still make use of DOS drivers. Windows 95 ISO images are available through our downloads listed below in each release.

At least, there is no problem on 'Win95_OSR25.ISO' to install.
This is over-dumped, but it is dumped from Microsoft Geniune OEM CD.
Original ISO size : 617,308,160 bytes
SHA1 : 97f66e77445cd4b1ac55508c36d0fdbc17f17f25
The ISO file size of Win95_OSR25.ISO on WW is 618,229,760, but no problem to install.
This Windows 95 can't be installed as Upgrade if MS-DOS or any version of Microsoft Windows is installed on HDD.
To install this on HDD, you should boot Windows 95 boot with CD-ROM driver.
Then initialize HDD by FORMAT.COM (FORMAT C:) and run SETUP on A: - I just downloaded an image for a Windows 95 OSR 2.5 boot disk, I think that should solve my problems.
I already installed MS-DOS 6.22 with floppies, all three of them, and Windows 95 RTm with floppies, all 21 of them.
I guess tomorrow it'll be time to format the hard drive again, and do a clean install using this boot disk.
Thanks, Thinkpadman.
I have a feeling once I post what I bought last night, you will explode in your pants! Just wait. - viewtopic.php?f=36&t=8317&p=144814#p144814
I attached the screenshot of Windows 95 OSR 2.5
You can download bootdisk for Windows 95 OSR 2.x with CD-ROM support.

Not sure what I did, but no problem.
Was OSR 2.5 ever on MSDN?
(I know that Windows 95 was allegedly on MSDN for download until 2003, but I don't know details of what version was hosted there. Can anyone manage to find an archived download page on Archive.org, or have some other way to verify? I can't seem to).
Windows 95 Osr 2.5 Iso
I keep looking and can't find a definitive answer.I've performed some detailed comparisons of the contents and images of the following ISO's:
Windows 95 Osr2
- Disc #1 (found on BetaArchive FTP)
File: win95c_osr25.iso
Size: 596,140,032 bytes
MD5: 63D344A46010E85871C79DCA32F17FCB
SHA1: E050106B59520BABB64295041E44287B0E29A17F
CRC32: DD09CE03
Notes:
- Likely IS an 95C/OSR 2.5 disc, although ISO contains files modified 8/24/1996, but they are bytewise identical with almost all files on discs #2/#3/#4 (which are dated 11/26/97), with the following differences.
- These are the only differences that exist between this ISO and Discs #2/#3/#4:
Additions: contains 'AUTORUN.INF' file in the root of the disc and an 'AUTORUN' folder (which contains 'AUTORUN.EXE' and 'WIN95CD.ICO').
Deletions: does not contain 'ohare.inf' in the 'WIN32' folder.
Alterations: modified files: 'GOODTIME.AVI', 'WELCOME1.AVI', 'WELCOME2.AVI', 'WELCOME3.AVI'. All four are smaller in size (same content, reduced bitrate).
- This image IS NOT bootable. - Disc #2
File: Windows95CISO.iso
Size: 617938944 bytes
MD5: 429F1F3DB1EE6C385CD2EECBA1138F7A
SHA1: D0108F98F4D08EE7335606CE229A2FEBE6737004
CRC32: 55538854
Notes:
- Likely IS an 95C/OSR 2.5 disc, as ISO contains files modified 11/26/1997.
- Identical contents as Disc #3 and #4 (no differences whatsoever inside ISO image), but the ISO image itself is different.
- This image IS NOT bootable.
- This image is byte-for-byte identical with Disc #3, except has padding ('00') at the end of the image. - Disc #3 (This appears to be the 'best available copy', IMO. Also, a better name might be 'en_win95_osr2.5.iso' to match the MSDN naming convention.)

CRC32: B7F18C7C
Notes:
- Likely IS an 95C/OSR 2.5 disc, as ISO contains files modified 11/26/1997.
- Identical contents as Disc #2 and #3 (no differences whatsoever inside ISO image), but the ISO image itself is different.
- This image IS bootable.
- This image is significantly different bytewise as compared with Disc #2 and Disc #3, the ISO was likely created by a different program (or modifications to insert the boot sector may have altered the structure somehow).
Windows 95c
- If your setup complains about missing disks, it is likely that your CDROM driver was not loaded when the computer rebooted after the first setup process. If after formatting the C: drive you copy your CDROM drivers (MSCDEX) to C:, and add the appropriate line in AUTOEXEC.BAT for your cdrom to load, then reboot.. then the setup should go without a hitch.
