This is the only Window 95 tutorial in Virtual Box that absolutely worked for me from beginning to end! Thanks so so much!
Not for me. Constant problems like booting staying at 100% while on the side it gives a cryptic 'aborted'.
So you got past him @5:05 using the disk01.img twice without explaining the difference.
Thanks for the tutorial! I now have Windows 95 VM up and running on my PC. Continue with the amazing work!
Wow!!! THIS WORKED!! Thank you Epan! I've been wanting for this to work and I finally got it to work!
I had to run the FIX95CPU again after the Plus install for some reason, but it works great now. Thank you for the tutorial!
Thank you so much! I used this in VMware because other tutorials wouldn’t work for me, so I used this guide and it actually worked. Kudos to you!
Actually, I don't know how to insert the boot disk in the VMware virtual machine so I gave up on this.
Never thought in a BILLION YEARS I could make this work. Top five moments of the year honestly
Thanks for the updated video! I am going through a build tonight!
Thanks for the step-by-step instructions! It was wonderful to be able to play my favourite old Windows 95 game again...
Risk? xD
Thank you so much for making this tutorial. I like that it has no cut during loading bits so I don't have to keep pausing the video haha.
...I am overwhelmed...with this guide I managed to reinstall my OEM Windows95-C DE Version finally on Vbox. Thats great! Thx so much!!
This video was a life saver, thanks for the step by step step by steps, they helped me do the install step by step.
I actually got the startup sound when I created a password! Thank you so much for the excellent tutorial! ❤❤❤
THANK YOU for this!!! I've been needing to setup a Win95 Virtual Machine so I can play my old Dos and Win95 games.
me too😭😭😭
Thank-you profusely for your incredibly detailed tutorial. It's been saved for future reference!
This was well explained, everything worked well! Thank you!
This was the setup that worked for me for Windows 95! Thanks!
Worked perfect it helped me a lot to just make a folder with all decompressed files for better organization
Perfect from start to finish. Thank you so much!
I've been waiting for this!!!!
I was having trouble getting it to run the setup, I forgot you had to format it xD thank you
Thanks for the tutorial man! Worked perfect!
Work without much issue, thanks a ton!
Worked like a charm, thanks a bunch!
Thanks so much this even worked with 95 Plus
Thorough and clear. Thank you!
Thx bro i have been trying for months👍👍👍
thanks for the tutorial. And for the activation code I just asked chat gpt a specific prompt and it worked. I do believe the area after OEM does need to be a multiple of 7 but here the prompt is: "Generate me 30 sets of strings in the form of "xxxyy-OEM-NNNNNNN-zzzzz" where "xxx" is day of the year between 001 and 366 (for example, 192 = 10th of July) and "yy" is the year (for example, 94 = 1994). Your range is from the first day of 1995 to the last day of 2003. "OEM" must remain intact. The "NNNNNNN" segment consists of digits and must start with 2 zeroes. The rest of the numbers can be anything as long as their sum is divisible by 7 with no remainder. The last segment "zzzzz" should consist of random numbers, "z" representing a number."
also I did get this from a video but I thought it was really cool and wanted to share.
This is technically a 27th anniversary special since windows 95 turns 27 years old today
Holy crap! True.
wow
Perfect video, thanks a lot!
Worked great and with my own WIN95 CD
Excellent tutorial, thanks!
damnnn this works, no issues. This is my dream, Thank you.
I saw that starting Setup normally didn't work, as ScanDisk would say that "The size of the C: file is being misreported."
What I did to fix it was running Setup with the /is switch, which skips ScanDisk and lets the setup progress. I successfully installed 95 even with this, so even if you don't have to, run:
setup /is
Hi there! I have two questions.
1. A screen which reads "System Error [break] Cannot read from Drive A [break] cancel/retry" keeps coming up once I'm in the graphic portion of the setup, and I'm not sure at which stage this solution should occur. I'm unable to proceed past timestamp 13:00. 2. I am attempting to run a physical disk that requires WIN95. Where and how should that be uploaded? Would I be best off copying files onto a flash drive and uploading it as a disk, just as you showed with disk.01? Thank you for any help!
Very nice explanations ! Thank U very much
i miss this kind of these tutorials
Any way you could do a tutorial on running DOS and Win 3.1 / 95 games in Virtual Box? Unfortunately, nothing seems to be working for me.
22:41 when i restarts MS DOS opens, i tried to put "cd windows" and then "WIN" to start but it says a device or resource required by VFAT is not present
Here's the problem: When I try to put in the ISO, for some reason, the D: drive doesn't exist in the VM.
restarting Windows 95 after being prompted to do so by microsoft plus leads me to the menu at the start of installation, what should i do? It's supposed to redirect me to Windows 95
Hello Epan, thank you for this video. One question. How to I get the disk command ribbon you have in the lower right corner just above the standard ribbon at bottom of Win 11 desktop? thank you
Everything worked exactly, down to the errors. The only thing is that I did hear the classic Win95 startup sound
I spent the better part of a day trying to get VirtualBox to run Windows 95, and this video had the only instructions that worked! Now I've got _SimCity 2000_ running on my Windows 10 laptop!
…well, except for the music. XÞ
It’s would probably just be easier to ditch VirtualBox and use PCem for this purpose. In PCem the game won’t run too fast, plus you can select a sound card that actually works, like the Sound Blaster 16.
@@Liamoldchannel Thank you! 👍
Thanks Buddy!
Thanks!
fdisk와 C드라이브 포맷까지 알려주셔서 감사합니다!
you are a LIFESAVER
hay I need help copying the files it keeps on saying 0 files copied bth I am using the 256 colors
When I install the 256 colors iso, it just shuts down the vm after a restart
when i installed Vmvare tools it glitched out and showed me 6:25 and showed that i have already dos partition but i cant boot from it :( pls help
Enabling sound card in the setup works and there is now a startup sound
I recommend to follow this tutorial, it will lead to execute win95 properly. Thank you very much.
it for some reason when i installed windows plus it said that some weird icons are the default ones how can you fix this?
at the part to 14:15 where you mount a FIX95CPU iso image is what I did. I replaced the disk01.iso image with FIX95CPU, i connected the cdrom to the vm while on the protection error screen then restart but instead it just boot right into windows 95 with the boot options I selected normal and pressed enter and the protection error screen popped up.
In 19:16, there is no folder "Plus" in the Win95_OSR25.iso. I downloaded the file again of both sources, but they do not contain any Plus folder.
I set it up but it keeps saying " Virtual machine failed to boot" can you help?
Please help! I am trying to follow this, and it works until I have to add the iso file "disk01.iso" , its not there! What have I done wrong? Theres only the iso file "windows95" and my game as an iso
Bro i didnt need the fixcpu it just passed up to setup it skipped the protection error.
Following the clip, I managed to install win95 on the VM. But how can I use it to run old programs, which do not work on Win10, not even in the compatibility mode?
at the 13:03 minute the setup remains stuck on preparing to copy files . What should i do? @EverythingEpan please answer
I got the startup and shutdown sounds to work.
Hi, very nice tuto, win95 is up and running thank you ! However, the cursor flickers when clicking, any way to resolve this ?
I try to put in copy D:\WIN95 but it says its an "invalid drive specification" and yes I did all the steps correctly
Whenever I try to make a Mouse input, the cursor jumps to the top left corner. Pressing right-ctrl does not help. Additionally, "Mouse Integration" is greyed-out and I cannot activate it.
I setup a VM with Windows XP and mouse-input works totally fine.
Does anyone know how I can fix my issue?
I could not find any help on Reddit, forums, etc...
CDR101: Not ready reading drive D
Abort, Retry, Fail?
This is cool. I want to use the machine to play Simcity. Unfortunately, after I load the FIX iso file and reboot, nothing happens, and I just go back to the screen asking me to load the CD ROM driver
I'm having a weird issue. After doing the 256 colour installation, ignoring the error message and all, I reset via the machine tab, but all I see in VM is a black screen. Windows doesn't boot up. Any idea what could be causing that? I can get to boot into safe mode, but not normal Windows.
EDIT: Playing around with it; it's the display settings. How do I get them to...work? I know it's a dumb question but I don't want to be stuck in 16-bit colour at the lowest res.
Thanks bro ✌
How are graphics drivers working for everyone? I’ve gotten windows to run but am getting a ‘8bit color error’ when I try to run certain software
excellent video
You should actually mention how to create extra drives and how to install games to them , I usually create .vhd drives , close the program , go into Windows Explorer , right click " This PC " , navigate to Manage / Disk Management and attach the .vhd drives and copy whatever I want to the drive from my Windows Downloads folder or whatever else I want , like music ...etc . Great tutorial , I don't remember you mentioning how to release the mouse .
My computer finished the Internet Explorer download, what does this say about my device?
so this tutorial woked great i got windows all set up but the mouse integration is not working on my virtual machine can anyone help?
for me it continually says that windows was not properly shut down and I CANNOT fix it
thank you!
How do I change the color scheme to 256 colors? Also, how do I get the sound to work?
would have been helpful if you included the OEM key in the description, or printed in large font on the screen
How do I type the slash in win 95? I tried everything please help me
I'm having a black screen after installing the 256 colors adapater, having to run in safe mode and undo this change. Do you have any ideia on how to fix this?
this vidio gave me an A in my school. thank you so much
when i try to copy down the files it just tells me that file not found
When i restart to do step 3 it just boots up and is a normal menu
I planned to do that and have it in USA California Bay Area Palo Alto when I was in 10th Tenth Grade and 11th Eleventh Grade but I had trouble doing it then I found out virtual box to do it but that one also I had trouble, I did with many things it didn't work I couldn't do this can somebody please help me with this for sending more tips for it?
when I copy the files from c to d it only copies readme and setup.exe
Hi, I have just commented to notify when I install Windows 95 it crashes Internet Explorer 4.0 Installation, do I need to keep the .iso file in
It's saying that I have to insert Windows 95 Disk 1. I am using a different ISO with the same version. How can I fix this?
Edit: I canceled it and now a bunch of dll errors are popping up. I think it was an essental part
it wont like change my windows 10 to windows 95 fully or just a box?
the tutorial is long but worth it
I got a guru meditation error at 25:16, please help!
edit: nvm I closed and restarted the vm and it works now
some games for me are playing faster than they should... is this a Virtualbox issue?
why is it installing my bootdisk and iso and fixcpu95 as 7z or zip?
i haven't done watching yet. but if the video don't show can you show how to run old discs with the program? i got fifa 2000 that need windows 95-98
thankyou so mush
It keeps failing to boot becuase the operating systen is broken or something.
Thanks a lot
Thank you so much!🥲
Made it to 5:30. The floppy disk file isn't showing up. I downloaded it an extra couple of times for good measure. It's in my downloads folder, but not when I need it for the storage tab. Why does none of this ever work? I just wanted to play an old Windows 95 demo disk. Why does every tutorial work for everyone but not me? It's uncanny.
Starting Windows 95 doesn’t work for me. For some unexplainable reason , when i finished the last setup part ( after canceling the printer wizard ), Virtualbox restarts the virtual machine like normal , but it restarts TO THE BEGINNING! So i tried to do it again , and it does the same thing.
Please help!
bruh its been 4 months since i commented this and no one still didnt comment on how to do it.
Bro I’ve tried to do another version of windows 95 and your version and both say aborted. I’ve been at it for a couple hours and looked up problems but nothing matches descriptions besides vm saying “not a hypervisor partition”
For better windows 95 experience, I use either PCEm or 86-Box emulators. The protection error is one reason why I would not recommend running Windows 95 on VirtualBox or VMWare.
