    Win 2k pro won't find downloaded bjc-5000 driver.

    When I first upgraded to W2K Professional, Canon USA had no driver for my BJC-5100. I seem to remember I got it easily from Australia. More recently, I have downloaded the drivers from driverguide.com. So in the past, I have not had any problems using this printer with W2K, and also ME. I have...

    Iomega Zip Drive 250-USB and W2K

    My finds have been tight, so it wasn't until the end of October. Final solution for this became obvious when I broke open the Iomega Zip and discovered the top head had slid caticornered off to one side. Just like one of the pictures ion one of the posted click-of-death sites. I have no idea...

    Unusual Scanner Problem

    I've had quirks with my HP Flatbed scanner where now I always check via a thumbnail everything I copy- as sometimes the scan comes across with streaks, etc. Also of course, it sometimes just ups and says it can't find the network scanner, so I unplug it, unplug the USB cable, plug them in again...

    Iomega Zip Drive 250-USB and W2K

    In it's own sick way, just knowing what caused it brings satisfaction. Supposedly using the TIP software periodically will enable you to know in advance that the drive is starting to go- and is affecting how data is stored on your disks. I thought I could install a SCSI card I have on my other...

    Iomega Zip Drive 250-USB and W2K

    Final word on this is Iomega's position now is that as they settled the class-action lawsuit referenced earlier, it is no longer their policy to replace defective drives. The best they offer is a new one at less 15% with a promo code, and a mail-in rebate for $30 which lowers the price to the...

    Iomega Zip Drive 250-USB and W2K

    July 15, 2003. Without a doubt the Click of Death page is a valuable explanation of what is wrong with the zip drive. In contacting Iomega, 800-697-8833 and giving my Zip 250MB-USB Serial # I was told it was out of warranty(purchased Jun 2000). I mentioned the "Click of Death" to a...

    Iomega Zip Drive 250-USB and W2K

    Tterk and the Click of Death. Truly couldn't believe my eyes upon seeing this site. I am at work right now, so will check it out when I get home. The only previous trouble I ever had with Zips was not having the sparrow driver loaded(W98). I hope this might diagnose my Peerless drive if I can...

    Iomega Zip Drive 250-USB and W2K

    Thanks tterk. I am loathe to have to accept that the drive has suddenly gone bad, as my Peerless docking part only works about 20% of the time(and has been discontinued to boot!), so now I am stuck with a lot of stuff on 100MB disks that I can't read. My first zip drive was a W98-based scsi-...

    Iomega Zip Drive 250-USB and W2K

    Thanks, I am working my way through that site. Have tried uninstalling all USB stuff, then plugging them back in with PC off. Still no recognition of disks. In ME, no acknowledgement of the zip icon- although the drive is acknowledged. Have been unsuccessful in reconfiguring scsi card to...

    Iomega Zip Drive 250-USB and W2K

    System will acknowledge drive, perform ejects, but refuses to acknowledge disks, formatting options don't activate, won't allow assignment of drive volume name. Seems like all Iomega's help articles relate to the drive not being recognized. Have the current Iomega ware, this symtom occured for...
