Zip drive

Check at the manufactures web site for DOS mode programs.

Before you start restoreing the files, I recommend that you format the hard drive form a Startup Disk for your operating system using the 'system' option
format c: /s
This makes the hard drive a bootable drive.
If the drive is already formatted, u you can use the system command from the boot floppy DOS prompt.
sys C:

Then, install and run the DOS mode drivers for the ZIP drive.

Alternately, if no CD drive is available for the PC, you could copy the Windows CD onto several ZIP disks (on another PC).
Copy the disks to a folder such as C:\WinCD
Boot from either your floppy, or the systemed had drive, and run Setup from the folder with the Windows files.

You'll need to copy some files from the cdrom to a diskette, (I didn't get a cdrom with my 100 meg zipdrive), on another pc (hopefully there is an install directory to copy) or find someone with a diskette install for the iomega zip drive. You'll also need to find the Iomega Tools zip disk since that is how it recognizes and initializes the drive as a scsi connection. If you do not have both or can not get your hands on both, you will most likely have problems getting it to work in which caseI'ld contact IOMEGA for assistance. Good Luck
