Iomega "Zip" drivers needed

Post by kf4sqb »

Does anyone have an old copy of Iomega's "Tools" disk that will support DOS? I'm trying to install an internal IDE/ATAPI Zip 100 drive in a DOS machine, and Iomega no longer offers support for DOS, including the drivers. My email is in my signature. Thanks!

BTW, Mods, I wouldn't think this would be a problem, as Iomega doesn't support DOS anymore, but pull this post if you feel it nessasary.

I've got the CD, but it is approximately 57 MB. My FTP server is not currently up. What exactly do you need? If it will fit in an e-mail, I can send it to you now. If not, it will be a couple of days before I put my server back on line for you to download some or all of the disk.

Victor, I just need what's required for a DOS install. I think it should all be in a file or directory named "DOSstuff".

Victor's CD was too new. Anyone else?

BTW, thanks again for trying, Victor.

Hi,
I just emailed you a driver I found, see if it's the right one.

I'm sure that I just downloaded these from Iomega's site. I've got several of these old drives, that I bought used, and only have a couple of "tools" discs. Both are corrupt. I do have a CD--somewhere--I'll see what I can find.

Cripes, I thought I was the only one who still used these.


Start by reading this page. IOmega has a ton of info on their site, but it is buried under lots of different headings and links:

https://iomega-na-en.custhelp.com/cgi-b ... 1072727087

Notice especially the link on the page for the "dos driver"

Sorry, I don't know how to fix these links. I got all tangled up with word wrap

Actually, I never tried it. I haven't had the time lately. Maybe I can try either tonight (or this morning, however you want to look at it :roll: ), or over the next few days.
