I had difficulty installing my Epson/Iomega Zip drive with Windows 95. I
work on a Dell pentium machine that has both Windows 95 and Windows 3.1--
the drive worked without a hitch under Windows 3.1! After digging through
the readme files, I found some instructions to "manually" add the device
with Windows 95. After a few complications, I eventually got it working. I
found some errors in the user guide and the readme file that slowed my
debugging process. Please e-mail me directly if you are still having
problems, and I'll try to remember the specifics of what I did (it's been a
few months).

If you have an older computer, Zip drives may simply not work. We
were unable to install them on some IBM 386s.
