Yes, quite sure.  I did the same thing, and surely from a boot floppy.  So,
let me repeat it: fips15B fails on my system exactly the same way.  The
result is a corrupt win/95 system.  Quite nasty.  Anyone know how to fix
windows?

So, warning to everyone else: don't use fips15b unless you are absolutely
sure that you can stomach a dead windows.
