I think it's Windows 95 OSR-2, because it's FAT32 compatible. But it is an
OEM release, which, at this time, didn't have any restricitions regarding
hardware changes (=upgrades).
Meanwhile I managed to install Windows 95 and it's running. It really is
the BIOS, and the only way is a program installed in the master boot
record that loads the hard disk as 20GB for DOS and Windows.
The thing is - it really works fine with Linux. But what can I say?
Windows 95 is OLD! With Windows NT/2k/XP these problems wouldn't exist.
So, thanks anyway!
Andreas.
