This was a very common problem with Win95 and an AMD CPU at 350 mhz or above
. Turn off your internal cache in the bios ( it will take a lot longer to
load but it will , fix a sandwich in the meantime) and load windows. Then go
to
http://www.microsoft.com/Windows95/downloads/contents/WURecommended/S_WUServ
icePacks/AMDPatch/Default.asp
and download and install the patch you will need to fix it. go back to your
bios turn internal cache back on . And have fun.
Thanks,
