Have you enabled virtual memory in Win95? Is there plenty of free space
on your hard-drive? If so, all should run fine. If your HD is short of space,
try running fewer applications in the background.

When running Win95, you do not need SMARTDrive or RAMdisk, as Win95
automatically converts the remaining free physical RAM into a disk-cache.

I run DJGPP on a 16Mb Win95 PC and it whizzes along smoothly.
