"I Scotch-taped aluminum foil over the Zip's clear plastic window. The disk works fine."

I have a hard time believing foil would work so you guys got me to try it. Bottom line is that this absolutely doesn't work on my Zip. I get immediate rejection of the disk. Perhaps your particular Zip has a faulty reflector reader?
