Well, you'd be really lucky to figure out how to get USB going in Win95. 
I think you'd have to find a late OEM version with USB drivers.  It'd be
easier to get that going in Linux!

If you really need to get away from ME, find a copy of Win98 somewhere or
go up to 2k or XP.

You may have mentioned this in the past, but have you checked on the
support of your printer and camera?  I understand that the software
available on Linux for digital cameras is better than what comes bundled
with them for Windows.

Steve has a good procedure, if you decide you really need Windows.
