There are Many things that are free from Microsoft Haggis, so many that we
often take the for granted. But in order to use a Microsoft Operating System
you do need to have a valid license for the sofware. Operating systems that
came before Windows XP did not have any type of activation process so piracy
is more common with these versions of Windows.

Basically if you have a legit Windows 95 cd and a product key, you may
install it on your system as long as it is not installed on any other
computer. There is no assisted support available from Microsoft, but there
are resources available through the support.microsoft.com web site.

Thanks
