I got a 32M chip and replaced the 8 that I had added to my TP701C, so
went from 16 to 40M ram. Also added a 3.1G drive, and went on an upgrade
binge. Did reinstall OS/2 W4 and Boot Manager. Got W95 installed in a
separate partition, and it does work with no problems. Had to make sure
that the CD was working under DOS BEFORE installing W95, and it is still
there for when I need W95 to run some software (diagnostic and
programming type) for work.
You may have to do an install of generic dos, with all the right drivers
first, and then install 95 over that. Also, what I bought was W95
upgrade, so had to stick in disk 1 of W3.1 so it would continue the
installation.
