Here I go again, with another problem.
Perhaps it's me and not the machine.
Any case, I bought and installed an external Iomega Zip100 drive about three years ago. Everything was going smooth enough till suddenly (as if by wizardry) the fool thing just zonked out. Whenever I insert a disk, the amber and green lights go on but that's it. The amber should go off, the drive should recognize the disk and the green light should stay on. But they don't do that. The two lights remain on and the computer will not recognize or find the external drive. Surely, I must have done something but I have no idea what it is.
In the "My Computer" the zip drive has the icon but that's all. What am I to do?
Thanks,
Clemmo

so that's it huh? the bugger up and died on me? that bums me out. do you advise me to go out and buy another one?

is it as simple as that? just go out and buy a used one? how am i to know that the one i buy isn't zonked like mine? there's a vacant computer at work with a zip100 drive just like mine. perhaps i should switch them. no one who ever know as no one ever uses the bloody thing. whaddya think?
