- "Hi ho Hi ho, it's off to Iomega I go...."
-
- Thanks to all who tried to solve my problems, it would appear that I have a
- sick Zip. This I discovered after making a 1.92 Mb boot disk and taking
- everything (and I mean _Everything_) out of my 2000. I noticed that the
- drive activity led tended to flicker on and off from time to time and it could
- not distinguish between different disks. ie one minute disk A is 0 MB and
- writeable, eject it and re-insert it and magicically it becomes 95 Mb and
- write-protected.
-
- So back it goes to Iomega Germany...
-
- Again thanks Very Much, and may you all have a prosperous new year.
