We have a Zenith 159 with 640Kb of memory and an EGA card.  I was trying
to install windows 3.0 on it, but it hangs after the second or third
installation floppy.  We used the Zenith version of windows, but that
doesn't list a Zenith XT machine, other than the portables.  I selected
the XT/PC machines (after trying the portable option) and also disabled
the automatic video confiuguration (dipswitch no 5).  No luck whatsoever.

Any suggestions?
