I finnaly got win95 on my laptop, downlaoding updates off of dell's website so I can use usb stuff and my damm network card doenst work. Usually you can use win98 drivers on 95 for some stuff but it wont work for my damm usb device. Does anyone know if I can do anything to the os/device/drivers to get it to work. Oh, BTW its a netgear EA101 usb network adapter
 
What version of Win95 do you have? OSR 2.5(95b IIRC) was really the only one that supported usb devices, and even then, support was crappy. Do you really HAVE to have Win95 on there? I would junk it for at LEAST win98FE as it has waaaay better usb support.

what did you have on there before?
 
Win95 OSR 2.1 (95B) and OSR 2.5(95C) do indeed have pitiful USB support. Perhaps you could use Win98SE with 98Lite to pare down the bulk, while retaining the much better USB support.
