I have tried booting Win95 in 'step-by-setp confirmation' mode and it
has seemed to show the problem.
At the 'Load the Windows graphical user interface' prompt, the error
"Not enough extended memory available to run Windows" message appears.
Currently the system is using 2 x 16MB EDO SIMMs.
Any ideas why it should report this error ?
