| 222323 | 2004-03-13 12:35:00 | I have zip drives on two computers. One runs Win ME, the other Win XP. Some zip disks prepared on the ME computer are not readable on my XP computer. I just keep being asked to insert disk into Drive D. Any ideas? |

| 222325 | 2004-03-14 01:26:00 | Suggest have a fossick in www.iomega.com Pretty sure there are instructions in checking discs and drives Have you tried transferring all the contents of a nonreadable disk to a readable disk and seeing if it will open in XP?. Then reformat the non readable disc, enter some files and see if it will open in XP. I have Zip 100 disks that are still working OK after about 8 years as a 2nd backup. |
