Just use custom install and put it in another directory. If you Win3.1 dir
is c:\windows install Win95 in c:\win or c:\win95.
I recommend not to install Windows95 on top of your Win3.1 directory. Since
you are installing a new OS it is a great time to clean out the old stuff.
If you put it in the same directory you are looking for problems.
I know someone will chime in that they didn't have problems installing on
top of Win3.1. To that I say, you are one lucky bastard.
