Installing Delphi in Win95 environment.

Has anyone installed Delphi in Win95?  I recently boght Delphi and tried to install the Cd-Rom version
in Win95 and it gave me errors stating that files are corrupted.  Then I pop the Cd-Rom into another
computer running Win WFW and it installed fine.  Anyone experienced this problem?  Is it because of Win95
or my Cdrom drive?

Joe,

I installed Delphi onto a Windows 95 Preview machine without any
difficulty, and ran with that setup for about two weeks.  Perhaps you are
having a hardware/system specific problem.

Good luck,

I ran into the same problem, but i kept on reinstalling it over,
and over again. After 5-6 times I managed to get it in.

Don't ask me why! :-)

I had some problems at home, though not with win95, which could be traced
back to a faulty CD-ROM drive as well as instabilities in DOS 6.22's
SMARTDRV. Disabling smartdrive's CD-ROM portion and installing another
cache helped quite a bit, yet did not remove the problem completely. At
work there have been no problems whatsoever.

I have the "final beta" of Win95 (#347) installed and Delphi runs just fine.

I have installed Delphi and Delphi C/S on my Dell Dimension XPS90 running Win 95 and on a 486-66 with a cheap
single speed CD-ROM. I have has no problems. Incidentally, these installations were done with the "Final"
beta and the subsequent "June Prerelease"... both flawlessly.
I have a friend with a similar PC but a different video card and he gets corrupted file messages from both the
CD-ROM and diskette installations.
Could it be Video Related ? - That's the fun thing about Rel 1.0 software on a beta OS - Ya just don't know fer sure!

I'm running the Final Beta of 95, and installed with no problems. You
might try copying the disk images off the CDROM to diskette from WFW,
then try it via diskette.  I think it requires about 15 disks.

I've run Delphi on three different machines with Windows 95 in the past
few months (Due to PC shuffling.. Don't ask..) and have NO problems on any
of the three... (2x486's and a Pentium..)
