A. Follow the steps below
Before you do this, make sure your Parallel Zip drive is plugged in, andmake sure you DO NOT have a ZIP disk in the drive.
Go to Iomega's web site and download the software:http://www.iomega.com/software/
Download the Windows NT Tools for Windows NT 3.51 and 4.0 version 1.5iomgnt15.exe (3.3MB).
Execute this program. It will decompress the files, and then start the SCSIcontrol Panel Applet. Click the drivers tab and click Add. On the right handside it will have various Iomega drivers and select the relevant one and clickAdd
After restarting, your system should see the ZIP drive. You do not have toinstall the ZIP tools, you can use the drive without them. To install the toolsanyway, run the setup program again.
Notes:
When you start up your pc, make sure there is no ZIP disk in the drive-otherwise NT will run checkdisk on the drive, which can take an eternity.
If you do not have the ZIP drive attached when you boot up, you will get anerror at bootup that a service did not start up.
