well the reason some actions work better from win95 is that it has bulit in
cache..... For dos to have a similar effect u are going to have to use
SMARTDRV. u have to place it in autoexec.bat

the line would be 
C:\smartdrive's path\SMARTDRV C+ 4096

4096 is the size of the cache
C+ means read/write cache on C drive
it is EXTREMELY flacey under windows 95, so u have to have it out before yu
boot to windows again
