Seeking very old VST ZIP 100 driver
Hello, all.
I've got a Powerbook 190 with a VST ZIP 100 drive in the expansion bay, but no driver for same. Does anyone know where I can get a driver for this fossil? OS is 7.5.
Thanks,
Dr. A

Re: Seeking very old VST ZIP 100 driver
IOMEGA didn't work the first time I tried. Since posting my original query, I rebooted the laptop and tried again. Second time must have been some kind of charm, because now it works. Not sure what's different.
Thanks for the help.

Re: Seeking very old VST ZIP 100 driver
Some drives are not hot-swappable, and Zip Drives generally work without a driver if a disk is inserted before the computer is powered on.
The expansion bays are just an ATAPI interface anyway - most everything should be plug-n-play, iirc.
