Hello,<br>
I'm experimenting with virtualization using Virtualbox. It works beautifully<br>
with XP, but I really want Win95. Has anyone had any success getting a 95<br>
guest OS to work on an Ubuntu host? I can get it to run, but I have no sound<br>
and only basic graphic functions. Any suggestions?<br>
<br>
Ray<br>

From memory, win 95 was not too good apart from basics like running<br>
applications in its limited way. The main change from version 98 was a<br>
better graphic environment with less bugs. By the time it came out<br>
issues such as the internet and security were still little known for<br>
many. There wasn't much to hack so few people did it. Innocent days...<br>
An old sound card might be recognized by it, but newer ones could<br>
result in 'drivers not available'.<br>

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.<br>
