Even1, creating a bootable WIN95 on a Zip may not be as simple as copying. Remember, all those INI and registry links refer to the C: drive letter, not A:. Your best bet is to install Win95 from scratch onto the Zip. You may need to do it using the procedures at the link below, like I did. I would sure like to know how Micron gets around the problem, or if they use the same methodology as below. Good luck.

Even1,

Zip rescue comes imbedded in Norton Utilities version 3.0. I have it. However, you MUST either do a live update immediately to Norton Utilities or re-install you zip drive because the Norton stuff got released somehow with a corrupted zip driver. I did a live update and also re-installed my zip drive.

I now have Windows 95 on my zip disk and can boot to it using the zip rescue feature in conjunction with an additional Norton rescue disk in the floppy drive.
