If that's the case, your computer's bios will most likely recognize up
to somewhere between 2 and 8GB. However, Windows 95a can only see
2GB. Only Win 95b and newer would detect a larger disk since it uses
fat32. There are workarounds such as using a software overlay program
or buying a new ide card.
Personally, I would not spend any money upgrading such a machine. I
would either save money for a new system, or as someone suggested,
look at refurbished units.
