Bka32 0 Posted October 23, 2000 I recently aquired a SyQuest SparQ 1.0 gigabyte removable drive. When I installed it into my machine, all went well. When I installed it into my operating systems, WindowsME and Windows2000 Professional, all was well. When I use it in Windows2000 however, I will put a disk in, use it, and then when I try to change disks, a few things happen: 1. the drive will not eject using just the eject button on the drive, 2. when I eject it using the right click over the drive, and reinsert a new disk, and click on it, the dir shows up, but is corrupted, and the free space isnt changed 3. it errors telling me to run chkdsk, which I do, and get hundreds of errors, destroying files. Anyone have any ideas? Share this post Link to post
EM 0 Posted October 23, 2000 Same thing on mine. I had all sorts of trouble with file allocation errors in both Win98 and Win2k. I finally gave up with the retarded thing and tossed it. Basically a waste of money and it shows why they are no longer in business. No fixes that I n\know of. Ed Share this post Link to post
Bka32 0 Posted October 23, 2000 Well, in WinME it works flawlessly, no problems what so ever. In Win2k, I installed SP1 after posting the topic, the problem seems to have calmed down, however it still may exist as of yet. I emailed the people and we'll see if they respond to me yet.

scottmi01 0 Posted January 5, 2001 I'm not having any luck installing my Sparq 1.0 under W2K. Did you just use the regular install disk that came with it? I saw some notes at http://www.ntcompatible.com/sb.shtml that say some tweaking needs to be done with www.shuttletech.com files. I looked/tried/failed to get anywhere. Help!
