Disable Virtual Memory under Win95.
Reboot and when rebooting press "Shift-F5" to go to DOS.
type attrib -r -s -h -a /s, to strip all attributes off all files.
(While your at it, you might want to clean all that previously hidden crap that Win95
put in your Root, and also delete all those .GID files all over your drive).
Flush your TMP and TEMP directories by doing a DEL. in it.
Reboot into Win95.
LABEL COW:

type attrib -r -s -h -a *.dat in the C:\WINDOWS directory.
Do the above again except use *.da0.
type attrib by itself to see if there are any more hidden files in your C:\WINDOWS directory
and if so, strip all it's attributes off.
exit back to Win95
defrag with full options on.
repeat from LABEL COW
