(Request) Iomega ZIP drivers
Hi all!
Does anybody have IomegaWare, or what the heck it's called, drivers for ZIP 100 drive? I'm using a parallel port, and all software that i have tried does not work.
Thanks in advance,
Milo

What kind of system are you trying to run it on? The DOS software is known not to work on a stock 8088 or 8086, it needs at least a V20/V30 or 286. (Or look in to PalmZip)
If you have managed to connect it to a physical parallel port I'm guessing it is not quite a "modern" lobotomized system that has had its brains sucked out by Windows 10?
Either way, on a "modern" computer you might be better off hunting down a USB, SCSI, or IDE zip drive. The SCSI versions really rocked.
RAR sucks and needs to be kicked off the planet. Mostly because of the other piece of malware called "WinRAR". Most people I've seen use WinRAR, WinZip, or another piece of proprietary junk instead of the (WAY) better 7-Zip.
Everything beginning with "Win", in my experience, is malware. Windows 10, WinRAR, WinZip, WinAmp, etc. Oh wait, there are two exceptions: WinWorld and WinSCP.
The drivers on this disk were only designed to work on DOS 4+, Win 3.x and Windows 95, so if you're running anything newer it probably won't work.
I'll just drop the link here in the case you need it anyway though: http://downloads.grahamdowney.com/iomeg ... %20100.IMA

That'd be a good place to put it, SomeGuy.
