Before your Begin
- You should read through these instructions thoroughly and print out a
copy before you continue.
- This installation procedure assumes that you have a basic working
knowledge of Windows95 and MS-DOS commands.

your system before installing software or making changes to your system.
- This installation will require you to have your Windows95 Setup Disks
or CD-ROM available. If Windows95 came pre-installed on your computer
your computer manufacturer should have supplied you with disks.

- If you are using software provided to you by Sound Internet for use
with Windows 3.1x simply delete the directory tree C:\INET. To do this
you may start an MS-DOS prompt and type:
deltree c:\inet
- If you are using a third-party Internet software package. Please
check with that software's documentation for instructions on how to
un-install the software.
- If you are currently running Windows 3.1x on your system and are
upgrading to Windows95 please be sure to delete any copies of the
WINSOCK.DLL file before you install Windows95.
- If you have already installed Windows95 you should check to make sure
that there is only one copy of WINSOCK.DLL on your hard drive.
The file should be in your C:\WINDOWS directory and should be 42,080
bytes (42K) in size with a file date of July 11, 1995 9:50am.
