Hello I use Linux4Win with windows 98 and had no problem with the install.  
I think you should upgrade to windows 98 and you will have better luck.

I downloaded Mandrake 7.1 yesterday, burned a cd and just (4 hours ago) 
tried to install Linux 4 Windows... Setup crashed and after that I wasn't 
able to boot Windows or Linux. After four hours of struggling I finally got 
Mandrake uninstalled (the uninstall programme didn't work from DOS) and 
Windows back to normal.

That was a bit frightening experience and I really can't recommend 
Linux4Win after this.

Anyone had better luck?

P.S. I'm using Win95 by the way. Anyone tried with 98 or 2000?
