Windows media player 7.1 - Microsoft has 6.4 for download but the only reason 7.1 didn't run on Win95 was because microsoft coded it to refuse to install on 95 when they stopped supporting it.

This download contains the Windows 95 OEM SR2 Update for Proper Plug and Play Operation with Multifunction CardBus Cards. The update fixes several problems users may experience when using multifunction PC Cards. Please note that this patch does not resolve issues associated with any other versions of Windows 95 other than the OEM SR2 version. If you are not sure which version of Windows 95 you have, you can find out simply by checking your System Properties. To do this, right-click My Computer and select Properties. An OEM SR2 system will show a designator, such as "4.00.9500 B," as the version. The number may vary slightly, but the letter designator will be a B for the OSR2 version. Version designators without a B, such as those that include an "A" or show nothing after the number, cannot utilize this patch.
