I think this is the trouble. Win95 doesn't setup a 2GB partitions correctly. Do 
an fdisk and fdisk will warn you about imporper partition boundary or similar thing.

I once mounted my 95 disk in linux and did ls. When I booted in 95, c:\windows 
was empty with scandisk requesting entire day to complete...;-))

Get a 95 partition of 1 GB or so. 95 can handle that. For best health prepare 
the partition in linux and format in 95. Let everbody be happy..

You seem to be a power abiword user. I would like to know how good it is 
compared to kword. I am seriously thinking of doing some documentation in kword 
but either I don't have much to document or lyx is bit too good for me..;-) But 
I like kword for it's simplicity.

I stopped following abiword for it's bleeding edge dependencies as with any 
other GNOME programs. Never got GNUCash working...;-(
