Although both of those devices should have had standard Windows 95 drivers.
Are you installing 95 or the second release. I think the Aero might require
that.

I install Win95 OSR 2.1 Release 4.00.950b.
In hope the problems to kill i install:
Diskette Drive Support
version 1.00 A (30 Oct 95)

But the PCMCIA problem stays.
I kill the default Diskdrive entry and i can use the diskdrive,
but the ECP-Problem is the same.

And now?

bye
Heiko

Sorry, it's been almost 10 years since I saw one of those.
