hello again...here's what you need to do to solve this problem.
When you (playing as Jill) enter the room with Barry...go back to the hall...Wesker will talk to you and Jill will go back, then try to go to Wesker again...and Barry will say something...then go to him...but when you get to clock...zombie will get in the room and Barry will kill him...there will be the same movie...but near clock...and you will be able to continue the game...that's all.

How did you get it to install in the first place? It freaks out and tells me It'll only play on Win95 and exits installer

Try making an ISO from that cd...and use Alcohol 120% or Deamon tools to mount it on virtual drive. Then use compatibility mode on these files:
CHECKER.EXE
LAUNCH.EXE
SETUP.EXE
RESIDENT EVIL.EXE
 
Try to run the setup again...there should be an error right away...but pressing ESC will allow you to continue. Install everything and choose any video card...and play.
If you cant install everything....then choose minimal....or nothing to install...and then try to play.
