Correct, the documentation is obviously incorrect, because there _is_ no Setup95.exe on any version of the install floppy, it is on the Zip Tools disk. If you get the latest version of the Zip Tools software from Iomega and look at the following web page, this should solve your problem: http://www.iomega.com/support/techs/zip/why072.html In a Nutshell here is what I did to get my PP Zip setup on my TP. 1) Use the "Add New Hardware" feature of Win95 to detect the ZIP drive; 2) Make sure there are no IRQ conflicts by checking in the device manager in Win95; 3) Once Win95 has detected your Zip drive, copy the contents of your WIN95Stuff Zip Tools directory to your C:\ drive; 4) Restart Win95 with your Zip Drive UNPLUGGED; 5) Run the setup95 program from your hard drive; 6) Restart Win95 once again with your Zip Drive plugged back in again; 7) You should have a working setup. You may have to use the BIOS setup program on the Thinkpad to make sure there are no conflicting devices. Just use the cmd F1 combination.
