Problems with iomega zip drive in Win XP HE |
|---|
| message from =?Utf-8?B?Qko=?= on 12 Jun 2004 |
I replaced my hard drive and upgraded from Win 98 SE to Windows XP Home Edit. I did not make any hardware changes. Everything went smooth except for my Iomega Drive showing up as "Removable Storage" under "MY Computer" Device manage displays it correctly. Bios setting has it listed as a second floppy drive. I can get the drive to eject but it will not format or let me read the contents. I have tried disconnection it and reloading it. Same result. When I right click properities it say "file type "raw" beats me." But under hardware it is listed as Iomega 100 mg zip. ??? Would it have sometihing to do with jumper settings. I can not see this being an issure though since it worked fine with the current jumper settings in Win98 SE. I even tried to format with NTFS file type and Fat won't format , Just says cannot format. I hope someone has a fix for this problem. Thanks ahead of time.

Have you checked the Iomega Web Site for Windows XP drivers?
