If you're having problems starting after the setup runs ok then it's
likely that a Plug n Play device is conflicting with a legacy device.
Try starting in safe mode (hit F8 at the "starting Windows 95"
message) and setting up devices manually.  If it starts ok in safe
mode but keeps hanging on rstart in normal mode then try removing all
extra hardware (sound card, network card, modem etc) & restart. Put
the cards back in one by one until you find the one causing the
problem.
