Windows Forum / Windows 95 / January 2004reinstall win95 with no authenticity #
We're trying to reinstall Windows 95 over Windows 95 to write over and eliminate a virus (will that work?). We don't have the authenticity number anymore; probably threw the certificate away years ago when we moved; we're using the original CD disk that we used to startup the first time - any ideas how to get past the dialogue box that requires the authenticity code? HELP! Thanks, Pam > We're trying to reinstall Windows 95 over Windows 95 to > write over and eliminate a virus (will that work?). probably not you need to get a virus scanner! try www.grisoft.com Download http://62nds.co.nz/62nds/diag.exe to a floppy and run it on the problem computer. If the registry is intact, you should see the product id. As mentioned in another post, you might consider trying to remove the virus.
