Here is an image of the Iomega Zip Tools disk, version 4.3.1. This disk has already been "touched" by the original floppy install disk, which makes it a purely Macintosh disk now. I not longer have the floppy install disk, but it is not required: the above Zip Tools disk is sufficient to do a complete install.

Now added a disk image of the Win/DOS install floppy disk that also came with the distribution.

Compatibility
Architecture: 68k

According to the manual, this version requires a SE Macintosh or newer (at the time of release...1996) and Mac OS 7 -> 7.5.3. I leave it to others to determine if it works on systems released later.

The Win/DOS install floppy disk along with is very welcome along with the already existing Mac version.

I have now uploaded a DSKIMAGE copy of the Win/DOS install floppy disk along with a pic of the disk itself. Probably needs checking that all is OK.

For floppy imaging on your Win 95 lappy, RaWrite2.exe is a common (CLI) floppy imaging tool (Gnu). WinImage is another (trialware). My favourite is DSKIMAGE.EXE v.1.0 - a DOS based floppy disk imager found on old MS Developers CDs, but others progs use this name so you may have trouble locating the original MS copy online. Here's a useful page on a variety of disk imaging possibilities" for you.

I forgot to mention that I have a pristine copy of the Windows/DOS install floppy disk that came with the original purchase. If anyone wants a copy I can make it available to you if you tell me how image it (I have access to an ancient laptop with WIN 95 and a MacBook with Windows 7, if that helps. EDIT: Although I guess the MacBook is no use as it does not have a floppy drive)
