The SCSI probe never sees the drive. It is supposed to work with either SCSI or parallel. Seems to do ok on Win95, but on NT I am getting a lot of SCSII timeouts - on the same machine where it was OK with win95. I'm starting to wish I has stuck to the older Zip. Seems like a questionable piece of hardware. It is faster than the old Zip (when not getting timeouts). Ron Steele
