Can't install win 95

Hi

 

I am unable to install win 95 on VM 9

1st : I assume  I shouldn't have to install VM Tools, since they are integratedin the VM 9 . Am I right?.

2nd: I have opened the workstation and created  a NEW MACHINE for the preliminary installation of the  MS-DOS boot discs ( ISO files)

3rd: I got to the FDISK stage and created a DOS partition.

 

After this I should reboot and proceed .

 

Since I can't see a REBOOT command, I used the RESTART GUEST in the menu. When the machine reboots, I get a message: Missing Operating system  and I am unable to continue.

 

 

I have been going crazy for a week. I really need Windows 95 because I have acquired an old Italian Literature collection originally created for Windows 3.1 up to Windows 95. I tried installing Windows 95 the regular way on a new 1 TeraByte H.D, after putting the MS-Dos boot disc data on a CD, but it does not go through: it says Bootmgr missing.( the BIOS is set to boot from CD)

So VM ware is my only alternative.Can anybody help?

 

Thanks

 

Ittiandro
