Use your favorite Zip software to extract the files from the installation package you downloaded either PROWinx Right-click Start and click Device Manager or run devmgmt.
Right-click the connection you want to update and choose Update Driver Software. If there is no driver installed for that device, it will show up with a yellow exclamation and have a generic name such as Ethernet Controller.
Choose Browse my computer for driver software : Click Browse and go to the folder where you extracted the driver files. Make sure that Include subfolders is checked so that it will scan the entire driver set.
Click Next and it will start to install the driver software. A: Well, if they're all Macs, you're set. Just install the Zip Tools software on each machine and off you go. Of course, you'll need to physically move the Zip drive from one Mac to another as well. If you're dealing with a mixed Mac and PC environment, your options change. If you're looking to use the Zip drive on other platforms, the SCSI drive is probably the way you'd want to go. The hardware interface is easy; connect it as you would any other SCSI device.
The potential problem lies in the Zip Tools software. If you want to run the Zip on another computer, it's up to you to come up with formatting and mounting software. Q: Will it work with a PowerBook? A: Absolutely! Other manufacturers sell this type of adapter at comparable prices. Q: What other goodies are offered with Zip? A: A small color brochure is included with the drive selling such items as carrying cases, Zip disk holders, extra Zip disks which are more expensive than mail order and some retail outlets , Zip disk labels, Zip SCSI cables, the aforementioned PowerBook adapter, power supplies, Zip SCSI cards, and Zip Tools for the three mentioned platforms.
It is mentioned in the Zip documentation that a Zip drive cleaning kit is offered through Iomega; however, there is no evidence of this kit in the color brochure.
Q: Any other things, good or bad, that I should know? A: There are some issues which some people find fault with which I'll point out here. When the drive is plugged into an active electrical outlet, it's on; when it's unplugged, it's off.
I personally have no problem with this as my drive is plugged into a switchable power station Kensington MasterPiece Plus; no affiliation, though I think this is an excellent unit and I can turn it off and on with the station's button. If you happen to have a spare to pin SCSI cable, you can place the Zip drive on the end of the SCSI chain thus eliminating the need for external terminators, since the Zip has switchable termination by connecting the pin end to your formerly-last SCSI device the the pin end to the Zip drive.
The drive is VERY quiet. For some, this is a blessing; for others, a curse. Do not rely on auditory feedback to determine the status of the Zip drive. When the drive is not accessed for a few minutes, the drive kicks down into a low-power mode. When the drive needs to be accessed while in low-power mode, it only takes about a second for the drive to get back into action considerably less time than it takes for a PowerBook's hard drive to spin back up.
When inserting a disk, there is no lengthly spin-up time like a SyQuest drive so the disk is almost instantly available. When a disk is ejected, there is no spin-down time so the disk ejects at least as fast if not faster than a floppy disk, and leaves the drive with a very solid and satisfying "ker-CHUNK" sound. Q: I want more information and, gee-golly-gosh-darn-it, this FAQ just isn't enough!
How can I get in touch with the folks who make the Zip? A: It turns out that there's a whole lot of different ways you can contact Iomega. The voice telephone number for their corporate offices is , but DON'T call there unless absolutely necessary.
Iomega has been smart enough to supply about half a dozen alternative telephone resources. An Interactive Voice Help system 24 hours is available at or if you're in the area code.
But wait! There's more! Iomega operates a BBS at A: Yes and no. By itself, the Zip drive ships with a USA-standard power supply which can't be used everywhere around the world. I've received some reports from several people who state that this power supply works in several different countries. Zip owners in the USA who travel within the country with their Zip drive may want to consider this power supply as it is indeed smaller and lighter than the standard power supply almost half the size, in fact and would make portability that much easier.
Q: Does that "Universal Power Supply" include all ten billion adapters to fit the various electrical outlets of the world? A: No idea. The person I spoke with at Iomega told me that he thinks it includes several different adapters, but isn't positive.
A: Well, it's the same thing as a Zip drive for Mac. In the Download Center, select the Graphics Drivers product family. Once again in the Products drop-down, select your graphics product name. Select your operating system.
