I'm sorry I didn't followup earlier, but I was expecting someone to post
some helpful info.  When my 4MHz Zip died in my //e, it was intermittent
errors in Appleworks (probably v3, but it could have been v2.0 still).
Everything else worked fine, just AW would unexpectly bomb.  I even talked
to a good Zip techie.  He suggested some things to try (which I have
forgotten) with the zip config, suggested a possible problem chip on the
//e motherboard, etc.  (It was all related to aux mem switching and stuff
if I recall).  In the end, I replaced the 4MHz with a 8MHz chip and all
was well.  I still have that old Zip chip.  I tried it in a //e.  64K
and 128K stuff seemed fine.  But Appleworks would still bomb.  So it
sits unused in a drawer.  [No, I will not sell or give it away - don't
anyone ask].

Not much help, huh?  But my Zip seemed to die just like yours.  Sorry.
