i freshly formatted a hard drive and reinstalled windows 95. i am receiving problems similar to what it was before i reinstalled win95. for instance when i try to connect to the internet i get a "rnaapp has caused an invalid page fault in module unknown". i have also received similar windows errors when doing simple operations like closing windows. could it be a hardware problem or what??
 
Open the case and remove all peripheral cards, leaving just video.
Install windows, then add cards back, one at a time.
It's most likely a winmodem problem, or NIC, something is trying to share resources with another device.
If you get the same errors when installing with just video, it's time to pull the RAM and have it tested, or install with just one stick, then put the other in and see if you get the errors again. Cheers,
Jim
