Got error in the installation of windows 95 on the computer of windows 10

Hi,

    I have tried to install win 95 using VMware player (v. 12) on my new computer of windows 10 system. I got error in the installation of win 95.

    The CPU of my new computer is Celeron N3050.

The content of vmware.log is as follows. I was wondering how to solve this problem. Thanks .

I studied some articles in forum. Someone said that it may be related to the VT-x parameters in BIOS. I checked my BIOS, but in my BIOS there is no way to change any parameters of CPU of my computer. Any idea ?

relevant snippet:

Hi,

Welcome at the VMware communities forum.

Next time please use the attach button in the edit window to attach the log file instead of copy & paste the contents.

It makes it pretty hard to read.

In regards to your error, read the reply from Jim Mattson here, he has a few suggestions for this particular problem:
