Zip Drive

Is anyone else having trouble getting an Iomega Zip 100 Parrallel Port Drive working under 2K. I plugged the cables in, and rebooted, installed the software and got a Mem Dump error, reformated the Hard Drive and no blue Screen but no zip drive either. any ideas?

Thanks

Worked fine for me when I had one... never installed there drivers though. 2K detected it on its own.

Hi,

 

I had the same problem when I first installed Win2k. To fix do as follows:

 

1. In Device Manager, goto Ports, and double-click the Printer Port.

 

2. Goto Port Settings and place a checkmark on Enable Parallel POrt Legacy DEtection.

 

3. Click OK...Dev Manager will refresh & should pick up the Zip.

 

Hope this helps!

Thanks that finally fixed it, lets hope it stays that way.

 

Guess I didn't need those drivers after all

 

Update: That never fixed it I changed the disk and now get "g:\ is not accesable

The request could not be performed because of an I/O device error"

 

Any ideas?
