wtb windows 95 on floppy
 

trying to get an older laptop with no cd rom up and going.
need to find inexpensive windows 95 on floppy disk.
thanks jack

The average shelf life of floppy disk magnetic media is 5 years. You may
find someone who will give or sell you a set, but it is doubtful you will
find any error-free Windows 95 setup disks....

I had the same problem, what i did was put win95 on zip disks, but you
need an external zip drive or borrow one... Then its a piece of
cake......

Hi,
I have a set I used couple weeks ago. Now I don't need it since my boxes
no longer runs on Windows. Gone to Linux with CD-ROM.

hummmmmm ... hard one .......

I've got dos 6.6 and windows 3.11 on floppies and then a windows 95
upgrade ( from 3.11 ) on cd rom. those old 1X / 2X serial ( or
parallel port ) CD roms are dirt cheap on ebay and in swapmeets.

also you could try transferring the whole cd to your laptop with
laplink ...... cheap and easy. ( if you've got the disk space )


also .......... 3.11 and 95 floppies are frequently found on ebay
