Go to http://www,wri.com an search for fastbinaryfiles, it is a package that 
can replace the binaryfiles package. I have used it it seems to work with MaMa 
2.2.3 under windows 3.11. I hope it works for win95 also. (There is an 
article in Mathematica Journal about this subject that can be helpful)
