Not at all...
I have a suggestion - get a two-device IDE cable and patch it to your laptop. This way you can both attach a CD-Rom drive AND a HDD.

Why dosen't your laptop have a CD drive anyway? How on earth did they install your OS on it? I'm quite sure Win95 didn't come on floppies, and Im not sure your laptop even has a floppy drive...

yeah they did make windows 95 on floppies it was on 40 3/5 disks. i have the win95 cd installed and copyied to the hard drive by taking out the hard drive, putting it in a hdd usb case and running it through my desktop pc.
And no i dont even have room in it 4 a slim cd rom that is why im patching a full size one externally. and with the dos thingy i was just asking becuase booting from the cd i didnt know if it was like the floppy boot or what. i kno know that its like the floppie. and i can be bothered typing out words, i prefer dos than 95 |

Windows 95 on 40 floppies? Dont think so. I have it and it is 12 floppies. Plus one for the boot disk. So 13 floppies altogether if you count the boot disk.
