Mike,
No one tol' us but it ain't easy. First, go to
<http://www.basterfield.com/tp730/> and you will have all the info you need. I
installed 95 from a Thinkpad 755C in a docking station II w/ a CD-ROM. But when
setup said restart, I put it in the 730T and it worked. Then, using Win 98
Drivespace (yes 98 - many of the 98 programs work in 95) I compressed the drive
and then put the 95 setup files on it just to tweak the settings. But you will
have your own story when you are done.
