I have a parallel version and I'm using a driver I got off the Iomega
Web site. But you can use the one on the WIN95 CD as it works well also.
Just go to Add Hardware, pick SCSI controllers (yes...I know it is not a
SCSI, but that's where the driver belongs). Then click Have disk and
browse on the WIN95 CD in the \Drivers subdirectory (not sure if it's
under Other or what...). Pick Iomega and then the Parallel Zip drive .
Click OK and install the file. Reboot and you should see the drive now as
the next available drive letter in My Computer and Explorer.
