I did get it to install under 95, but I have a fucking huge machine. One common problem 
I've found (I have a baby machine too) is not enough RAM. Create a shortcut to the setup 
file, and then edit its memory properties so it has at least 16Mb of DPMI (or is it XMS, 
try either) of RAM. Dont leave it on 'auto'. You can set it on 16Mb even if you dont 
actually have 16Mb of RAM in your machine.

I'm totally guessing so please dont flame me if it doesnt work.
