![]() 32-64 MB AGP video card (nVidia GeForce 1/2, ATi Rage Fury/Radeon 7xxx, S3 Savage etc.).Pentium III / Athlon CPU (500-1000 MHz).2-16 MB PCI video card (*optionally with 3D-accelerator) or 8-32 MB AGP video card.Windows 95 runs comfortably, snappy even. I'm also aware that there are plenty of systems that fall between the gaps of these artificial classifications. ![]() Note that while the "high end" and "ludicrous" build examples are 100% stable/compatible, these kinds of systems would typically not have shipped with Windows 95 any more. If you didn't live through the era of Windows 95/98 or are otherwise a bit hazy on what kind of a system Windows 95 will run on, I've provided some very rough guidelines on what will pass for a compatible system. 1.2 Examples of computers that are great for Windows 95 Oh and the desktop update brings with it the Back- and Forward buttons for Explorer, if you're into that sort of thing. Besides being able to use larger hard disks and volumes more easily and utilize more RAM, you'll also see improved support for various classes of USB-devices and peripherals too. The cut-off point for software support in many cases is Windows 98, so you'll also be able to run newer versions of many applications, and certainly ones that have hard dependencies with Internet Explorer. Giving the devil his due, Windows 98SE and later will be better supported once you get into the Pentium4 and AthlonXP era hardware. So why run Windows 98SE or ME and not Windows 95? There are also some applications, games, and hardware that genuinely work better with Windows 95 than subsequent versions of Windows. Basically for a lot of vintage systems and use cases, Windows 95 gets the job done just as well as Windows 98SE, but is faster and uses less RAM - that is unless you install Internet Explorer 4 or later. IMO Windows 95 offers Microsoft's purest vision of the desktop OS - lean, uncluttered, and not weighed down by the browser wars and subsequent integration of Internet Explorer into everything. This was a popular question when the thread originally posted. So why run Windows 95 and not Windows 98SE? Preliminaries 1.1 Do I want Windows 95 or Windows 98? ![]() Honorable mentions go to Nathan Lineback, Conner McCoy and Rudolph Loew for their great contributions, without which this guide would have to be multiple pages longer. I know there are people who can stretch the limits of hardware support on both ends. Generally later hardware will have problems due to lack of driver support and the internal limitations of Windows, and as such I won't focus much on these edge cases. I define period hardware as a systems starting with an Intel 80486 CPU and 8 megabytes of RAM ranging all the way to something with a late Pentium III CPU and up to 256 megabytes of RAM. The goal is to help anyone wanting to run Windows 95 on period hardware achieve a functioning and stable setup with minimal effort. Using that website, you can get lots of sounds for free.This is a refresh of my Windows 95 setup guide originally posted in late 2013. If you want to customize sounds which play for various Windows events on your PC, is a great choice for you. Personally I downloaded the Windows Me (Windows Millennium Edition) startup sound because I like it very much, it made me nostalgic. I hope you will like something from those categories. Sounds are organized into three categories: has custom sound schemes as well as the default Windows sounds and even classic Windows sounds which were shipped with early versions of Windows and Plus! packs. I tried a few sound schemes and I liked them. All the sounds available on are completely free." We created this site to give you richer and more interesting sounds than the ones shipped by default with Windows. "You can download sounds and sound schemes for all Windows versions. It has a huge collection of various sounds and sound schemes. Luckily, we found a great web site for sounds! ![]() This made him really unhappy, so we decided to find some source for free sounds and sound schemes. He tried to find some good sound schemes, but all he found was some paid Stardock app with a proprietary soundpack format. He was bored with the default Windows sounds, which are very limited in Windows 8. This question was asked yesterday by one of my friends.
