    Can you please be a little more specific about what it is you are looking for i.e. exactly what versions of Windows are you wanting to learn about and whether you want to learn the basics or be an expert.

    Please keep in mind that the older the technology, the harder it is to recommend relevant books, websites etc.

    As others have noted - Windows 95/98/Me/2000 are no longer supported by Microsoft, and very few, if any, are using these OS's.  You might (emphasis on might) find resources on these in either the library or Ebay.  Books like "Windows 95 Bible" and similar might be a good place to start.  There are similar books for Win98, WinMe, etc.

    Try searching windows 95 in google you will have a long list of websites to search in, best way to understanding an Operating Sytem (O/S) is to download and install it on a computer

    Wikipedia and youtube are usually a good source of information, we cant do your work for you.... all we can do is point you in the right direction.

    That could be the fact that its open source and anyone can write on it, so the information may not be 100% accurate, cross reference what you find with other sites. The internet is loaded with information..... you just have to use the right search parameters.

    Good luck with your research.

    I rather have books then internet searches because I need to work cited my research paper.
