Is anyone experiencing erratic behavior with an Iomega External 250MB Zip drive in XP?
Somethimes reads fine, others it says "Insert a disk in drive D:", when there is one in it.
Zip drives frequently have "mechanical" problems.
They usually appear on certain, well used ZIP disk. I generally reseat the zip in the drive. Try different disks. Make sure the little window on the disk does not have smudges on it. I hope thishelps.

That is what I mean by flaky. This is a new zip drive, new zip disk and a new computer, shouldn't have those problems. Any other ideas?
Computer/zip belongs to the company president and he doesn't understand: "Just reseat and retry untilit works." Is Iomega listening?
