yeah you see the little icon next to "Floppy Device 0"? click that and then choose "Choose Virtual Floppy Disk File"

after that you select the .img file for 95, since i just remembered that OS doesnt come in an iso. im assuming its an img

Oh Elementary? Darn I've used that and I ran into stability issues on my laptop, other than that it did run what I told it to run fine other than the occasional freeze.

well wait what do you mean, of course you need an iso or img file of the OS. the way a VM works is initially you boot it with either a physical disk or USB containing installation media for the OS, or you have a digital iso or img file containing installation media for the OS and you select that in the settings to boot with.

since you don't have a physical disk of win95, you'll need an img file of it. that menu i was just talking about is where you're supposed to navigate to the directory where the img file you have for win95 is
