New Win 95 install- registry problem
I just bought a new barebones system - ax5 motherboard, Intel p166 processor 64M oem simms. I reformmated my old 2 gig hard drive and have tried just about every version of Win95(osr2,win95b,win95a and original upgrade version) and it intalls and comes up with a registry problem. It tells me to reboot and it will use my backup registry. This is a new install, it has no backup registry. I've tried a different hard drive and get the same registry problem after I install. The motherboard came with Award BIOS, it seems it might be the problem???? Any ideas???

I had already gone over most of the BIOS settings but good referece. It ended up bad memories had been shipped with the system. Thank you Ralph for the suggestion, I took for granted the memories were good. My system is now up and running with no errors.
