Hi: I have a Compaq 4712 which has the regular Compaq version of windows 95a on it together with all the software package that cames with the computer most of which is old. As we all know Compaq puts it's OS on a restore CD which must be run to get the OS back in the event of a complete failure. What I would like to do is put a straight copy of windows 95b on the computer and eliminate all this old software. Wonder if anyone has done this and if so could they direct me to a step by step process as I've read that this is not as easy as it would seem. The BIOS in this computer was updated by using the Evergreen Y2K card so I don't feel that there would be a problem in that area.
