Just got my Windows 95 Preview yesterday. The damn thing doesn't even
support my CD-ROM. I have a Media Vision Reno CD-ROM attached a
MV Premium Deluxe 3- D card. The sound card is supported but not it's
SCSI adapter. I may try to move the Reno to an Adaptec card which hold
my SCSI-2 HD and see what happened.
This is the second major OS that MediaVision don't support ... first
one was OS/2 Warp ... both sound card and SCSI adapter not supported.
The funny thing was that I install WIndows 95 using the CD ... it
manage to copies all files and finished installation from it but after
a reboot, my CD no longer there. Attempts to add it back using Add
hardware feature also proves futile.
So .... see whether your CD drive appear in your "My Computer" group.
If it's not there, it's not Executor's fault but your CD-ROM not
supported by WIndows 95.

Same here ... even though running mem/c/p under the MS-DOS prompt gives
me 606K free memory, It just said not enough memory to run Executor
unless I put -applzone 2048.

Haven't encountered that one yet ..... but I hope there's
