This problem normally has something to do with AMD K6 or running at 350mhz or faster
or Athlon CPU's running at 1gh or faster. You need to run an official Microsoft
patch called AMDK6UPD.exe from within Win95 to get it to work. If you can boot Win95
to safe mode after the "Getting Ready to Run Windows for the First Time" screen,
it is easy to install. If you can't get into safe mode, put your HDD in another
PC and run it in safe mode to apply the patch then put it back in your own PC and
it will continue with the installation.
You can get the patch & info from Microsoft here ->
