I am not sure about 8i, but I recently had to upgrade my boss's laptop, Win95 with 8.0 personal. It took me quite a while to realize that there is NO option to create a new instance or database. Creating a new database on Win95 is not possible, only option is to use use the existing base or reinstall.
