It would be worth your effort to get an external CD-ROM that you can use to 
install from.  You could Copy the Win95 directory from the CD-ROM directly 
to the hard disk and run setup from there.  That way later when drivers 
need to be changed or such Win95 will go to that directory to find them. 
 You could also just use laplink to connect two computers by parallel cable 
or you could use the network card and transfer by just installing the dos 
version of network.
