Solution:
Installation of Windows 95 on DiskOnChip 2000
DiskOnChip is flash memory device that makes full hard disk emulation through
INT 13h. Therefore DiskOnChip can work under Windows 95 and it is possible to
load Windows 95 from big enough DiskOnChip. But DiskOnChip is a memory mapped
device, so installation of Windows 95 demands several special steps to avoid
some unpleasant occurrence of disk failures under Windows 95. Especially it is
important for Multi DiskOnChips that uses more that one window in upper memory
for every single DiskOnChip. Further, the term DiskOnChip is also used for
Multi DiskOnChip.
Installation from Floppy:
1. Make DiskOnChip bootable in DOS ( Ver. 6.22 or 7 ?Windows 95 )
1.1. Prepare DiskOnChip for work
1.1.1. Single DiskOnChip is already ready.
1.1.2. To prepare Multi DiskOnChip please read appropriate App. Note.
1.2. Boot from floppy DOS 6.22 or 7 (Windows 95)
1.3. Format DiskOnChip in DOS and make it bootable: format c: /s
1.4. Reboot from DiskOnChip
2. Install Windows 95 for first time.
2.1. Run Win95 setup from floppies
NOTE: This will be an old version of Win95, i.e. it will be
4.00.950.
This is before 4.00.95a or 4.00.95b
2.2. Select compact installation
2.3. When you get to the final screen where it asks you to continue and
reboot the system
go ahead BUT make sure you reboot from a floppy. It first checks
that there are no
floppies so you will have to let it finish and start the reboot
process without the floppy
and then hit the reset button. It is very important NOT to let the
DiskOnChip boot at this
point - if it starts to boot from the DiskOnChip it might already be
too late.
2.4. Boot from the floppy and edit the following file:
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM.INI
under the [386enh] section insert the following:
emmexclude=d000-dfff -
