Since it's only a 1 GB drive, wouldn't that be unnecessary? Perhaps that is the source of some of your problems.

Either way, try running chkdsk (or rather chkdsk /f), as I said.

Well, here's the thing...
That's the only way I can get it to boot. If I don't do that and insert a bootable CD that lets me boot off the harddrive, my NEC Ready 7022 doesn't detect a bootable drive at all.

SequoiaView is very similar to WinDirStat and will work in 95. http://www.win.tue.nl/sequoiaview/

The download links for that seem to be down...

I've uploaded it here http://www.mediafire.com/download/ji6m34s0arm … _3XPInstall.exe

All I want to say is that 1GB is reeeeeaaaaally tight, even for WIndows 95.

So, your BIOS doesn't support drives even as large as 1 GB? Have you looked into getting an update?

In any case, as I have already suggested 😒 , you can press F8 when "Starting Windows 95..." appears and start in MS-DOS mode. Even if your drive overlay software is loaded in your autoexec.bat and/or config.sys, this should still allow it to be loaded.

Yeah, I've booted into DOS Mode thanks to PhilsComputerLab's MS-DOS Mode setup. I've done all that you've wanted me to do, and it hasn't really helped, so I guess I should just look into larger drives at this point. I also sadly have no other computers with IDE hard drive support, so I can't fix what's potentially wrong with the 10GB extra drive I have.

It wasn't too bad in the day though given how many games then required the CD and load from the CD and didn't have to install 40mb+ to creep fill the drive

^You're right. An image of a dying Conner harddrive is slowly seeping back to my head... Surprisingly there's a blank in my memory between floppies, CD-ROM (one of those 1995 Creative kits)... and 2GB+ harddrives I remember knowing from much later magazines.

Well, I'm sure I have no idea! Were you able to run Scandisk in MS-DOS mode, then? Did Sequoiaview also only find 600 MB of files?
