How to install iomega zip 100 model z100usbs

Have iomega zip drive: zip100 model z100usbs have had several years and still have the CD but do I have to do something other than put the CD in the computer?

  • Anonymous Apr 10, 2009

    I have a similar problem. When I connect the zip drive via usb, it autoplays, shows up in the drives list, but I cannot right click on it or open it. It automatically crashes. This happens if I have a disk in it, but if it is empty is just asks me to put a disk in. I've tried multiple zip disks

If youre connecting it to XP or Vista, chances are it will detect and install automatically. The CD may not be necessary. You can try iomega's website for updated drivers if you need them.

Can't get computer to recognize zip drive

Steve, The 1st thing is to install the correct driver for the 100 on the computer you are using. Is it a Mac or PC? What model of computer is it. I have been able to use the Zip100 disks with an older IIGS and some older Macs (Performa and Mac SE) with no problems. I have had no experience with the PCs. The disks formatted as FAT16 or FAT32 can be read by both Mac and PC. Those formatted for the PC can also be read by Macs if PC Exchange is installed. Mac disks cannot be read by a PC.
Write back with more info to clarify your exact situation.

100mb zip disk not reading

These are pre-formatted and servoed at the factory.
Awhile back I was researching the 'Click of death" fault and found a guy in Belgium or Germany that coded a repair program for bad disks. Googlee for it

sometimes when it formats, it hoses the servo information (which the drive uses to keep track of things) and the disk becomes useless. This is why I stopped using ZIP disks and won't even buy a drive when I see them for 9.99 ;-)

Iomega zip port

First of all, make certain you are only using 100 MB disks in a 100 MB reader.

If the problem is more complex than that, I have several questions:

Can you read different disks?

what type of connection is the zip drive using with the computer? USB?

does the zip drive need an external power supply?

will the zip drive successfullly read disks when connected to a different computer?

does the zip drive appear under my computer at all? even as an empty drive?

what operating system are you using?
