If I can just get over this hurdle I'm betting the rest will be smooth sailing. Also, it seems that that is what FDISK is supposed to do. If your disk is NTFS file system, (etc), you must create a Dos boot partition." even though the virtual disk file is on a FAT32 partition. Then I get "Invalid drive specification" If I switch to drive R: and use the included setup program, I get "Could not create temporary directory. I delete the virtual machine and set it up again, this time not rebooting and I use the command FORMAT C: /S.

When I reboot ("reset") it, I get the error Missing Operating System_. I use FDISK as per the instructions and that seems to go as it should, but it says I must reboot Win95 for the changes to take effect. It seems to boot up normally, but there is no drive C. Once the virtual machine is set up and powered on, the boot disk is on drive A, and the installation CD is on drive R:, called BANANA. I am follow these instructions for installing win95. The file is 599 MB which seems kind of large for Win 95, but It detects the file as Windows 95, and sets up the virtual machine normally, creating the virtual disk. It is from Google docs so this has to be legit. I got a win95.iso installation file from this link. I had owned a Windows 95 CD but it got lost a long time ago. I select advanced when setting up the Virtual Machine to make sure it has usb support so it can hopefully use my usb MIDI interface in Win 95. I'm using this software to run old music programs I had once used in Win 3.1 and 95.
