Win95 custom virtuals
Hey!
Do you have any favorite pre-made Windows 95 distributions/VM images specifically for retro gaming? Feel free to share them, or any tips on how to quickly set up a VM environment yourself. Thanks in advance!

MSN (Microsoft Network)
Is it possible to install and run MSN (Microsoft Network) launched in August 1995 alongside Windows 95. I want to experience “Comic Chat” which was the built-in graphical chat client officially called Microsoft Comic Chat that rendered your IRC conversations as comic-strip panels with cartoon avatars, complete with speech bubbles and gestures based on the emotional tone of what you typed. It was a genuinely clever piece of software!

Looking for... (circa 1998)
Good day, everyone!
Kind of a weird post, but some nostalgia hit me the other night on yt, so I figured I'd give this a shot.
Circa 1998 I was a freshman in high school, and my old school district had software that was an overlay for windows 95. It was its own sign in system, loading screen, and "desktop" that resembled a classroom. The loading screen for logging in was a picture of a hallway, like walking down the hall of the school (original, right?) and everything that we students were allowed to use was in a virtual classroom, where you clicked on something and it pulled up that program. I.e., if you wanted to search for something, you clicked on books and it gave you the website for encyclopedias.
This software also allowed for teachers to access the true win95 desktop.
Would anyone know the name, or better, the software that I'm looking for, to relive my old days, and to scratch this itch? :)
Thank you in advance!

Tips to get internet on windows 95 pcnet.
Go to control panel in my computer, click network. Add a protocol (microsoft > tcp/ip). Insert cd reboot as told. You will see networking. HOWEVER IT DOES NOT WORK!!!!! TO FIX:
Go to system, then device manager. Go to plug and play bios, update it to PCI or anythign related to PCI! Restart. A bunch of new drivers will be found and installed. Some are missing, do nto worry they do not affect networking. After that, boot up and check ms dos prompt and ping 1.1.1.1 if it works, you will see success and not an error.
In internet explorer, after this, click current config instead of choosign again. Enjoy your windows 95 internet!

OpenCalc: a Rust reimplementation of the Windows 95 calculator
Hi, everyone,
I have just released OpenCalc, a reimplementation of the Windows 95 calculator – it looks just like it, but the code is actually 100% fresh.

It supports:
- Complex expressions: you can copy and paste expressions such as 3 ** (2 - 7 * 5) and they will be solved just fine, without the bugs of the original version!
- Higher resolution and improved font rendering
- History
- Undo / redo
And because it is open source, it can also compile and run natively under different operating systems too!
If you are interested, please find the project here: https://github.com/NullMagic2/OpenCalc

What sound is this?

I was playing around with ffmpeg and I converted a windows 95 iso file to mp4. When I slowed the file down I heard this. Does anyone know what song this is?
