Have you tried an 'INSTALL=' line in the CONFIG.SYS to load the drive's TSR first? INSTALL is a rarely-documented feature for the CONFIG.SYS to load a TSR during its processing. I believe it also saves memory by not loading some sort of header to into memory (DOS PSP maybe?), which may also cause a problem. Can't hurt to try though, eh?

After thinking about this (and drinking more coffee) I realized that he is loading the GUEST.EXE driver. This is not the best way to get the Zip drive to work. (It is meant as a temporary fix.) There is actually a set of drivers that can be installed in the config.sys file. (Check the documentation for installing the ASPI drivers and install the PPA3 driver as the first of the three.) This is poorly documented by Iomega, but it works. | Minister of Forced Caffinization in the DNRC | alano@teleport.com | |"The moral PGP Diffie taught Zimmerman unites all| Disclaimer: | | mankind free in one-key-steganography-privacy!" | Ignore the man | | -- PGP 2.6.2 key available on request -- | behind the keyboard.| | http://www.teleport.com/~alano | <fnord> |
