Answer» I recently took my computer in to be repaired. A new video card was installed. For some reason, my PC (window 98 os) no longer detects my Iomega Zip 100 SCSI external drive. I have tried re-installing everything from the original CD. That doesn't work. I have downloaded updated drivers from the Iomega site; that doesn't HELP. I have tried contacted Iomega support: nothing. I have posted my problem in other help sites; no advice has SOLVED my problem. Can anyone here provide suggestions? Thanks to you who can.Unfortunately, my experience with zip DRIVES is very limited, so I don't know how much I can help...but have you tried contacting the people who repaired your computer? If they did something to cause this problem, then I would EXPECT them to rectify it free of charge.CBMatt is right rather aske them first.. Question..more info on you computer specs please...98 is very old also why dont you upgrade to XP???Have you tried installing nusb31e ?
------>HereThe reason I haven't returned to the computer store is, frankly, I don't trust them to do the right thing. The video card that they installed isn't as good as the one I had before; I can no longer set my monitor resolution to 1280x1024, only the level one down from that. When I complained about this to them, they gave me a whole bunch of B.S. If I complain about the SCSI card or my Zip drive not working the way it should, I have a feeling they will not take any responsibility for it, especially since I have no proof that they screwed things up. The reason I haven't upgraded to a higher OS is because I'm cheap.I understand being cheap but the new OS has a lot to offer above a win98 machine. I would suggest that you take a look at upgrading.
The zip drive connects to your machine with a SCSI card? What model card? Also you may want to check to see if the system has a I/O conflict with the new video card and your SCSI card. You may have to move it to a new slot in your machine to make the system give it a new address...
