For starters I'd call your Tech Support line for the people you bought
your computer and/or OS from and have them replace your Win95 restore
disk. Also check into getting an updated driver disk for your video and
audio, because the drivers may not cooperate with windows sometimes
unless you have the latest revision. One other thing is to get your
hardware checked out to see if your RAM is in good shape, and that your
IDE controller isn't scrambling up your HDD's data. Maybe also you should
check your BIOS for the proper HDD cylinder and head settings, as that
may affect reads and writes enough to throw a monkeywrench into things.
For that matter, maybe your BIOS revision is acting up. Lots of things to
consider, and hopefully one that leads to your solution. Hope this is
helpful info, and not just ramblings from an insane mind. :)
