Post subject: Help! How can I get zip100 drive to work on XP?! |

I have a fully functional zip 100 drive I bought. You plug it into the printer
port. I did and I booted my computer it doesn't detect it and there isn't even a choice in add hardware for it to bee added to your system! What do I do?
Thanks. |

zip 100 drives are useless, seeing the disks have a very short life
Shame its windows, useless. You have to find the appropriate drivers off the internet, surely iomega will be able to help there |

thanks, I downloaded the software but now i've found out that I have a zip250mb disk and it isn't compatible with the zip100 drives.
But I have found that they are very inexpensive on ebay! |

Thats a good point vangar.
Zip disks die after a while. I bought mine from the post office and it only worked once. |
