First thing I would do is check your drive space and ram. If both are sufficient then upgrade to win98 as you will not get any support at all for win95, getting support for win98 will be hard enough. Hopefully you have a couple of G open space and 64M ram. If you cannot locate a win98 driver you can try winme drivers as they may work. Don't bother with drivers from winxp, win2k or winnt - they definitly will not work.

you probably won't - you can try a win 98 driver - but realize that nobody uses 95 and companies don't have to make drivers for it any more. 98 users will also start battling to find drivers.

The modem may not be backwards-compatible with earlier versions of XP.
You can check if it is compatible on the manufacturer's website. If a Win95 driver is available, it is likely that its also available on the manufacturer's website.
