I installed a card reader about a month or so ago. I was going to install 1.20, had it saved to MS etc. But I read some shit on here recently where some people were having small issues with it (not with a zip drive installed, but a card reader). I don't have any problems the way 1.14 is working right now. The only advantage you will get with 1.20 is being able to use large (1GB+) cards and not have to partition them. Right now I only have a 256mg card, but I'll get a 1gb card soon and when I do I don't mind having two 512mb partitions. Better that than run into problems. But then again, you might install 1.20 and run perfectly, who knows...

The issues there are with the os 1.20 are related to the fact that it doesn't recognize zipdrives with an older firmware. I run 1.20 since I installed my card reader and it's working absolutely fine ... so far *knocks on wood* :lol:

I'm running 1.14 with no problems.....

Try both. If 1.2 works cool, if you have problems, go back to 1.14.
