Tools Software for Iomega Drives
Tools software is a complete package of software tools to
help you manage all the stuff you use and create with your
Zip or Jaz drive. You will find the necessary Iomega Tools
package for your system already set up on your computer.
For information on using your Tools software, check the help
file for your system as listed below:
Windows 95 Users:
Open "Iomega Tools Help" from the "Iomega Tools" folder on
your computer Desktop or Start Programs menu.
Windows NT Users:
Open "ToolsNT Help" from the "Iomega ToolsNT" program group.
Users with Windows 3.1 or Windows for Workgroups:
Double click on the "Tools Help" icon that is located in
your "Iomega Tools" program group.
DOS Users (Windows not installed):
Type REFMAN.EXE at the DOS prompt under the IOMEGA directory
on drive C, then press the Enter key.
____________________________
Section 1.1
Reinstalling Iomega Software
You should only need to reinstall your Iomega Tools package
if the original software installation becomes corrupted in
some way. If your Tools software ever fails to operate
correctly, you will need both the "tools" disk that came
with your drive and the "Install" floppy diskette for your
system in order to reinstall the software.
IMPORTANT: The "tools" disk included with your Iomega
drive contains installation files that you will need if you
ever have to reinstall your Iomega Tools software, so be
sure to keep the original files on the disk. Do NOT
reformat the "tools" disk or use it as the target disk for a
backup.
Section 1.1.1
Installing Tools Software under Windows 95
1. Insert the "tools" disk into the Iomega drive.
2. Insert the Windows 95 "Install" floppy diskette into
the computer's floppy drive.
3. Open "My Computer" and double click on the floppy
drive icon.
4. Double click on the Install icon.
NOTE: If you are unable to access the Zip Internal IDE
drive, you need to reinstall two system files, ESDI_506.PDR
and VOLTRACK.VXD, located in the Windows\System\Iosubsys
directory. Your original system setup includes updated
versions of these files that support the Zip Internal IDE
drive. If the original files become lost or corrupted, you
will need to obtain replacement copies from either Microsoft
or your computer manufacturer. Iomega is unable to provide
these files because they are part of the copyrighted Windows
95 operating system.
Section 1.1.2
Installing Tools Software under Windows NT
1. Insert the "tools" disk into the Iomega drive.
2. Insert the Windows NT "Install" floppy diskette into
the computer's floppy drive.
3. Run SetupNT.exe from the floppy diskette.
Section 1.1.3
Installing Tools Software under Windows 3.1 or
Windows for Workgroups
1. Insert the "tools" disk into the Iomega drive.
2. Insert the Windows/DOS "Install" floppy diskette into
the computer's floppy drive.
3. In the Windows Program Managers, select the "File" menu
and choose "Run."
4. In the Command Line box, type "a:install" if the
Install floppy is in drive a: (or "b:install" if it is
in drive b:), then click on "OK" or press the Enter
key.
NOTE: The Tools Setup program may need to restart
Windows in order to complete the software installation
process.
Section 1.1.4
Installing Iomega Software under DOS
1. Insert the "tools" disk into the Iomega drive.
2. Insert the Windows/DOS "Install" floppy diskette into
the computer's floppy drive.
3. At the DOS prompt, type "a:guest" if the Install floppy
is in drive a: (or "b:guest" if it is in drive b:), and
press Enter.
4. Note the drive letter that Guest assigns to your Iomega
drive, then type "d:\dosstuff\install" (using the
Iomega drive letter in place of "d:"), and press Enter.
5. When the software installation is finished, reboot the
computer.
_________________________________________________________
Section 1.2
If your hard disk crashes ...
In case of catastrophic failure of your hard disk, you can
gain emergency access to your Iomega drive by booting the
computer from a floppy system disk and then running
GUEST.EXE from the "Install" floppy diskette that is
included in the Iomega "Welcome" envelope. If you have
backed up your hard disk to Zip or Jaz disks, you can use
this procedure to restore your hard disk from the Zip or Jaz
backup.
IMPORTANT: If your hard disk was damaged by a head crash, it
may have to be reformatted before you can restore files.
Refer to the documentation for your computer's operating
system for instructions.
VIRUS ALERT: Loss of data from the hard disk could indicate
that your system was infected with a virus. You should run
an anti-virus program to check and, if necessary, repair
your hard disk before attempting to restore any files.
NOTE: Your computer manufacturer may have implemented a
special disaster recovery procedure utilizing Iomega drives.
Refer to the documentation that came with your computer for
instructions or contact your computer manufacturer.
_________________________________________________________
Section 2
Using the Guest Program
The Guest program allows you to use a portable Iomega drive
on another computer without having to permanently install
either an Iomega driver or Iomega Tools software. There are
versions of Guest for Windows 95, Windows 3.1/DOS and
Macintosh systems:
* For Windows 95, run Guest95 from the Windows/DOS
Install diskette. If you encounter any problems, see
"Help for Guest95" on the Install diskette.
* For Windows 3.1/DOS systems, run GUEST.EXE from the
Windows/DOS Install diskette. Refer to the
GUESTHLP.TXT file on the Install diskette for
additional information on using GUEST.EXE with IBM-
compatible PC's.
* For information on using Guest on Macintosh systems,
refer to the GUESTHLP.TXT file on the Windows/DOS
Install diskette.
NOTE: On Windows 3.1, DOS, or Macintosh systems, running
the Guest program provides a temporary driver installation
that is removed when the computer is shut down or restarted.
Running Guest95 permanently installs the drivers needed to
support Iomega hardware under Windows 95.
_________________________________________________________
Section 3
Software Installation Troubleshooting
Refer to the MANUAL.EXE file on the Windows/DOS Install
diskette for software troubleshooting information on
computers running Windows 95, Windows 3.1, and DOS. Section
4 in this Readme file contains detailed instructions on
accessing MANUAL.EXE.
Note for users of Adaptec EZ-SCSI:
For information on using Iomega software and Adaptec EZ-SCSI
on the same system, refer to "Special Information for Users
of Adaptec EZ-SCSI" in Appendix A of MANUAL.EXE.
_________________________________________________________
Section 4
Electronic Manuals
The Iomega software package for Windows/DOS includes two
electronic manuals:
* The "Iomega Installation Manual" (MANUAL.EXE) which
contains complete installation and problem-solving
information for Iomega software under Windows 95,
Windows 3.1, and DOS.
* The "User's Reference Manual" (REFMAN.EXE) which
contains reference information on Iomega SCSI software,
including the Iomega Driver, configuration program, and
Iomega SCSI Utilities.
To access the Installation Manual, insert the Windows/DOS
"Install" diskette in a floppy drive (the example below
assumes drive A:), go to the DOS prompt, and type:
A: <Enter>
MANUAL <Enter>
You can also run the Installation Manual from the Windows
File Manager by selecting drive A: and double-clicking on
MANUAL.EXE. Under Windows 95, you can access the
Installation Manual by double-clicking on the floppy drive
in My Computer and then double-clicking on the "Manual"
icon.
_________________________________________________________
Section 5
Installing Iomega Drive Support on DOS-Only Systems
Many of the application programs included in the Iomega
Tools software package require Windows 3.1 or Windows 95.
If you do not have Windows on your computer, you can still
use the Iomega drive, but you will not be able to use the
Iomega Tools software that requires Windows. This section
describes the software support for Iomega drives available
for DOS systems that do not have Windows.
______________________________
Section 5.1
Iomega Driver for DOS
Running the INSTALL program from the DOSSTUFF directory on
the "tools" disk installs Iomega SCSI software to support
your Iomega drive. The Iomega SCSI Driver installs as a
device (SCSIDRVR.SYS) in the computer's CONFIG.SYS file,
and because of the way DOS handles drive letter assignments,
this can shift your existing drive letters.
Iomega software includes a TSR version of the Iomega
Driver (GUEST.EXE) which will not cause any drive letter
shifts when it is installed. If you prefer using the TSR
version of the Iomega Driver (GUEST.EXE), you can manually
install it in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file. Refer to the
electronic Installation Manual (MANUAL.EXE) for manual
installation instructions. MANUAL.EXE also contains
information on assigning specific drive letters with
GUEST.EXE. (See Section 4 in this file for detailed
instructions on accessing the electronic manuals.)
______________________________
Section 5.2
Iomega Tools under DOS
Iomega SCSI software includes a set of utilities that run
under DOS. You can use these utilities to set software
protection options on your Zip or Jaz disks, copy data to or
from Zip or Jaz disks, format Zip or Jaz disks, or lock the
Zip or Jaz drive so that you can install software to a disk.
You can run the Utilities in an easy-to-use menu mode or
from the DOS command line. To start the utilities in menu
mode, go to the DOS prompt for drive C: (the drive where
your Iomega SCSI software is installed) and type:
cd \IOMEGA <Enter>
SCSIUTIL <Enter>
If you need help running the Utilities, press <F1> anywhere
in the Utilities.
_________________________________________________________
Section 6
Cautions
Observe the following cautions if you are installing Iomega
software for Windows 3.1 and/or DOS.
______________________________
Section 6.1
DOS DISKCOPY
CAUTION!
When used with removable disks (for example, Zip disks, Jaz
disks, Bernoulli disks, etc.), DOS DISKCOPY does not create
a copy of the source disk on the target disk. DOS DISKCOPY
executes as if copying data from the source to the target
disk; however, after completion, the target disk is
unreadable and must be reformatted. Use an Iomega disk
copying utility to copy disks (either Copy Machine or Iomega
SCSI Disk Copy).
______________________________
Section 6.2
FDISK
CAUTION!
Do not use FDISK on any removable disk. FDISK is designed
for partitioning fixed disks. Partitioning any type of
removable media can lead to unexpected results.
______________________________
Section 6.3
Compression
Stacker 4.0 works with removable disks supported by
GUEST.EXE (for example, Zip disks); however, do not reboot
when Stacker asks if you want to reboot to remove TSR's.
Rebooting removes the Guest driver and eliminates access to
the Iomega drive.
DoubleSpace and DriveSpace do not work with disks supported
by GUEST.EXE, but they do work with the Iomega SCSI driver.
If you want to use DoubleSpace or DriveSpace to compress
your Iomega disks or other removable disks, install the
Iomega SCSI driver in your CONFIG.SYS file to support your
removable drives. Refer to the electronic "Installation
Manual" (MANUAL.EXE) for detailed instructions on running
the INSTALL program from the DOSSTUFF directory on the
"tools" disk. If you use Windows, also install your Iomega
Tools software for Windows by running the Iomega Tools Setup
program after installing Iomega SCSI.
CAUTION!
If you are using a compression utility on a removable disk
(for example, a Zip or Jaz disk), you should make that disk
nonremovable (or lock the disk in the drive) whenever the
compressed volume is mounted. Removing a disk while the
compressed volume is mounted could result in lost data. To
remove the disk, first unmount the compressed volume, then
unlock the drive. Refer to the electronic "User's Reference
Manual" (REFMAN.EXE) for detailed information on locking and
unlocking drives.
CAUTION!
Do not use any disk compression software to compress
removable boot disks.
Iomega SCSI Utilities with Stacker 4.0
When using Stacker 4.0 and Iomega SCSI, mounted, stacked
drives will not appear on the graphical user interface
screen for the Iomega SCSI Utilities. In order to use an
Iomega SCSI utility on a stacked drive, you must first
unmount the drive.
______________________________
Section 6.4
Shifting Drive Letters
The following caution applies only if you are installing Zip
or Jaz support on a DOS-only system or if you choose to
install the Iomega Driver, SCSIDRVR.SYS, in your CONFIG.SYS
file.
CAUTION!
Installing the Iomega SCSI driver may cause your drive
letters (including network drives) to change. This could
affect Windows applications that reference existing drives.
Check your Windows groups and "ini" files. For additional
information, refer to "Relocating Drive Letters" in the
electronic "Installation Manual" (MANUAL.EXE).
_________________________________________________________
Section 7
Pass-Through on the Parallel Port Zip Drive
This section describes how to handle problems you may
encounter when connecting printers or other parallel port
devices to the pass-through connector on the Zip drive.
______________________________
Section 7.1
Printers
The parallel port Zip drive supports most printers on the
pass-through connector; however, some printers require
exclusive use of the parallel port and will not work
correctly when connected to the Zip pass-through. Because
these printers cannot share the parallel port, your system
may stop responding if you attempt to use the printer and
your Zip drive at the same time (for example, if you attempt
to print a file from a Zip disk).
If you are having problems with your printer when it is
connected to the Zip pass-through connector, try the
following:
* Try powering on your computer, printer, and Zip drive
all at the same time by plugging them into the same
power strip and applying power at the power strip.
* If you are using Windows 3.1, disable Disk Watch by
removing it from your Windows Startup folder and then
restarting Windows. Disk Watch periodically wakes up
the Zip drive and checks its status, which temporarily
disables the Zip pass-through.
* Some Print Cache programs may conflict with the
parallel port Zip drive. If you have Print Cache on
your system, disable the audio warning messages for
both Windows and DOS using the reinstall procedure in
the Print Cache manual. (If you encounter problems
reinstalling, please contact your Print Cache Software
Technical Support.)
* If you have Microsoft Print System installed on your
computer, try using it to disable bi-directional
communication to the printer. (Remove the check mark
from the box next to "Use bi-directional
communication.")
* Try setting your printer to "Print to File" whenever
it's not in use. This will enable you to use your Zip
drive without problems as long as you are not printing.
When you want to print a file from your hard disk (or
any disk other than a Zip disk), close any files that
may be open on your Zip disk and return the printer
setting to normal. Do not attempt to access your Zip
drive until the print job is completed and you have
changed the printer setting back to "Print to File."
If you are unable to use your printer and the Zip drive at
the same time, the best solution is to add an additional
parallel port to your computer, then use the Zip drive on
one parallel port and your printer on the other. Most
computer stores carry simple I/O cards that let you easily
add a new parallel port. FarPoint Communications produces
an I/O card which is fully compatible with the Zip drive and
will improve your drive's performance. (Information on this
card is available from Iomega's Automated FAX Help system at
(801)778-5763.) Contact your computer dealer if you wish to
purchase a card.
______________________________
Section 7.2
Other parallel port devices
Parallel port devices other than printers may or may not
work on the Zip pass-through connector. This problem exists
because computer parallel ports were not originally designed
for devices other than printers. If you try placing a
device other than a printer on the Zip pass-through, or
place the Zip drive on another device's pass-through, there
are no guarantees that it will work correctly.
In the future there will be a standard for daisy-chaining
devices on the parallel port; when this standard is
implemented, Iomega will also conform to it. In the mean
time, try the suggestions listed under Section 7.1 for
solving printer problems. If your parallel port devices
still do not operate correctly on the Zip pass-through
connector, or the Zip drive does not operate correctly on
their pass-through, you may want to think about adding an
extra parallel port to your computer as described in
Section 7.1.
_________________________________________________________
Section 8
Optimizing Parallel Port Zip Drive Transfer Speed under DOS
The parallel port model of the Zip drive supports three
modes of data transfer which have different transfer speeds.
To ensure the broadest base of compatibility for the Zip
drive, the Iomega installation software for DOS
automatically uses the most compatible, but slowest,
transfer mode. In this mode, the transfer speed for the Zip
drive is about 2MB to 6MB per minute, depending on the
computer's processor speed.
If the computer has a bi-directional parallel port, the Zip
drive can be set to use a mode which provides data transfer
speeds of 6MB to 17MB per minute, depending on the
computer's processor speed. (If you are not sure whether
your computer has a bi-directional parallel port, refer to
the owner's manual that came with your computer.)
The fastest mode supported by the Zip drive requires a
special "Enhanced Parallel Port" (EPP) chip set to be
present on the host computer. In this mode, the data
transfer speed for the Zip drive is about 17MB to 22MB per
minute, depending on the computer's processor speed.
Because of the variety of EPP chip sets, and because there
are some chip sets that mimic a true EPP chip but do not
support EPP transfers, not all systems with "EPP" can
support this mode for the Zip drive.
Iomega software for Zip includes a parallel port accelerator
that can automatically set up both your computer and your
Iomega software to use the fastest transfer mode for the Zip
drive that is supported by your computer hardware. Under
Windows 95, you can run the parallel port accelerator by
double-clicking on the icon in the Iomega Tools folder on
your Start Programs menu. For Windows 3.1, double click on
the "Parallel Port Accelerator" icon in your Iomega Zip
Tools Windows group.
Under DOS, run the OPTPPM1.EXE utility as follows:
Step 1: If you have not already done so, install your Zip
software package following the instructions in step 10 of
the Zip Installation Guide.
Step 2: Go to the DOS prompt for drive C: and type:
cd \iomega <Enter>
optppm1 <Enter>
NOTE: If you wish to restore the default settings on your
system, run "OPTPPM1.EXE /NIBBLE" from the DOS prompt.
(This works under Windows 3.1 as well as DOS.)

Section 9
Setting up a Jaz Boot Disk
_____________________________
Section 9.1
System Requirements for Booting
You can boot your computer from a Jaz disk if your system
meets the following conditions:
* The computer does not have an IDE hard drive installed
as drive C. (You cannot boot from a SCSI drive if an
IDE drive is set up as drive C on the system unless the
IDE drive is disabled in the system CMOS.)
* The Jaz drive is connected to a bootable host adapter
(ROM enabled). Check the adapter documentation for
information on necessary switch or jumper settings.
* You have a compatible version of DOS, Windows, or
Windows 95.
_____________________________
Section 9.2
Jaz Boot Drive Options
You can use the Jaz drive as the primary (only) boot device
for the computer or as a secondary (backup) boot device:
* Using the Jaz drive as the primary (only) boot device:
This procedure assumes that the computer does not have
a C drive and currently boots from a floppy disk.
* Using the Jaz drive as a secondary (backup) boot
device: This procedure assumes that the computer
currently boots from a fixed SCSI hard drive.
_____________________________
Section 9.3
Setting Up the Jaz Drive as the Primary Boot Device
If the computer does not currently have a hard drive, you
can set up the Jaz "tools" disk to boot the system. Note
that the procedure in this section assumes that the computer
does not have a C drive and currently boots from a floppy
disk. If you have access to a computer that has a hard
drive, it is recommended that you use that computer to set
up your Jaz boot disk (see the procedure in Section 9.4.1
for detailed instructions on setting up a Jaz boot disk);
this will allow you to avoid having to use the "tools" disk
as your boot disk.
1. Make sure your Jaz drive is connected to a bootable
host adapter and that the ROM BIOS on the adapter is
correctly enabled. (See the adapter documentation for
specific instructions.)
2. Set the SCSI ID on the Jaz drive to 0. (Some bootable
SCSI adapters will only assign drive letter C to the
device at SCSI ID 0, and DOS permits booting only from
drives A and C.)
3. Turn on your Jaz drive and boot the computer from a
floppy disk.
4. After the computer boots (A:> will appear on the
screen), remove the boot floppy and insert the
Windows/DOS Install diskette that came with your Jaz
drive.
5. Type A:GUEST and press Enter. This will load the Guest
driver to provide access to the Jaz drive. (Guest
should assign drive letter C: to the Jaz drive.)
6. Insert the Jaz "tools" disk into the Jaz drive and run
RECLAIM.EXE from the DOSSTUFF directory on the "tools"
disk. The Reclaim utility sets the DOS format on the
"tools" disk, reclaims the Mac-formatted portion of the
disk for use by the PC, and unprotects the disk so you
can install to it.
7. Remove the "Install" diskette and reinsert your boot
floppy. Use the DOS SYS command to make the Jaz
"tools" disk bootable. To use the DOS SYS command,
type A:SYS C: and press Enter. (This will work only if
your boot floppy contains a compatible version of
MS-DOS.)
8. Remove the floppy boot disk and reboot the computer
from the "tools" disk.
9. Install the operating system you plan to use (Windows
95, DOS/Windows 3.1, or DOS only) to drive C: (the Jaz
"tools" disk).
IMPORTANT: Do NOT remove the "tools" disk from the
drive until you have installed Iomega software as
described in the next step.
10. Install the Iomega software package needed for your
system as follows:
Windows 95 Users:
Run Setup95 from the W95STUFF directory on the "tools"
disk to install Tools 95 software to the "tools" boot
disk. Note that Windows 95 will operate only in MS-DOS
compatibility mode (Real mode) when the system is
booted from a removable drive. This is a Windows 95
limitation for using a removable boot disk and is not
affected by using Iomega Tools to make the Jaz disk
nonremovable.
DOS/Windows 3.1 Users:
Run the INSTALL program from the DOSSTUFF directory on
the "tools" disk and select the "tools" disk as the
target for installation. After completing the Iomega
SCSI installation, load Windows and run SETUP.EXE from
the W31STUFF directory on the "tools" disk to install
Jaz Tools software for Windows. Make sure the target
of installation is the "tools" disk. When the software
installation is complete, open the AUTOEXEC.BAT file on
the "tools" disk and add the following line:
C:\IOMEGA\SCSIUTIL Lock c:
This will make the Jaz boot disk appear as a fixed
disk, which is preferred for running Windows 3.1 and
required for installing and/or running some Windows 3.1
applications.
DOS Only Users:
Run the INSTALL program from the DOSSTUFF directory on
the "tools" disk and select the "tools" disk as the
target for installation.
11. Install any application programs you want to be able to
run from the Jaz boot disk.
12. To boot the system after the computer has been turned
off, turn on power to the Jaz drive and insert the
"tools" boot disk; then turn on the computer.
_____________________________
Section 9.4
Using the Jaz Drive as a Backup Boot Device
If your computer is currently booting from a fixed SCSI hard
drive, you can easily create a backup Jaz boot disk. In
case of some disaster to the primary boot drive, you can
then boot from the Jaz disk and use it to restore the fixed
SCSI disk. The first procedure in this section describes
how to create a bootable Jaz disk. The second procedure
describes how to set up the Jaz drive to boot the computer.
_____________________________
Section 9.4.1
Creating a Jaz Backup Boot Disk
This procedure assumes that the computer is currently
booting from a SCSI hard drive and the operating system and
appropriate Iomega software have already been installed on
the primary boot drive.
1. Prepare a blank Jaz disk using the Iomega Format tool
with the "Copy System" option turned on. This is the
ideal way to place the basic system files on the disk.
CAUTION!
Do NOT format your Jaz "tools" disk as this will
destroy your Iomega software installation files.
2. Install your current operating system (Windows 95,
DOS/Windows 3.1, or DOS only) to the Jaz boot disk.
3. Back up your primary boot disk (C:) to the Jaz boot
disk as follows:
Windows 95 Users:
RIGHT click on the Jaz drive icon in My Computer and
select Copy Machine. Use "Two Drive Copy" to copy C:
to your Jaz drive. Be sure to select "Don't Erase"
files on the target disk before starting the copy.
Windows 3.1 Users:
Double click on the Copy Machine icon in your Iomega
Jaz Tools group. Use "Two Drive Copy" to copy C: to
your Jaz drive. Be sure to select "Don't Erase" files
on the target disk before starting the copy.
DOS Only Users:
Use the Iomega SCSI Disk Copy Utility to copy all files
on drive C: to the Jaz drive (D: in the following
example). Go to the DOS prompt for the IOMEGA
directory on drive C: and run the command line:
SCSIUTIL Copy C: D: /A /V
IMPORTANT: Use the drive letter for your Jaz drive in
place of D: when using the Disk Copy command line.
You can also run the Iomega SCSI Utilities in menu mode
to carry out the copy. Make sure you select the Append
option before starting the copy.
BACKUP NOTE for All Users:
Repeat the appropriate procedure described in step 3
regularly to keep your Jaz backup boot disk current.
_____________________________
Section 9.4.2
Using the Jaz Boot Disk to Restore the Primary Boot Drive
In case of disaster to your primary SCSI boot drive, use the
following procedure to boot the computer from your Jaz
backup boot disk and restore the fixed SCSI hard disk:
1. Make sure your Jaz drive is connected to a bootable
host adapter and that the ROM BIOS on the adapter is
correctly enabled. (See the adapter documentation for
specific instructions.)
NOTE: If the fixed SCSI hard disk is connected to a
different adapter than the Jaz drive, disable the ROM
on the other adapter.
2. Set the SCSI ID on the Jaz drive to 0. (Some bootable
SCSI adapters will only assign drive letter C to the
device at SCSI ID 0, and DOS permits booting only from
drives A and C.)
NOTE: If the fixed SCSI hard disk is connected to the
same adapter as the Jaz drive, you must also change the
SCSI ID on the fixed disk so that it is not 0.
3. Turn on power to the Jaz drive and insert the Jaz
backup boot disk; then turn on the computer.
4. Reformat the fixed SCSI hard disk using your operating
system's standard format procedure. Be sure you select
the option to copy the system files or make the disk
bootable.
5. Restore files from your Jaz boot disk (C:) to the fixed
SCSI hard disk as follows:
Windows 95 Users:
RIGHT click on the Jaz drive icon in My Computer and
select Copy Machine. Use "Two Drive Copy" to copy C:
(your Jaz drive) to the fixed SCSI hard drive. Be sure
to select "Don't Erase" files on the target disk before
starting the copy.
Windows 3.1 Users:
Double click on the Copy Machine icon in your Iomega
Jaz Tools group. Use "Two Drive Copy" to copy C: (your
Jaz drive) to the fixed SCSI hard drive. Be sure to
select "Don't Erase" files on the target disk before
starting the copy.
DOS Only Users:
Use the Iomega SCSI Disk Copy Utility to copy all files
on drive C: (the Jaz drive) to the fixed SCSI hard
drive (D: in the following example). Go to the DOS
prompt for the IOMEGA directory on drive C: and run the
command line:
SCSIUTIL Copy C: D: /A /V
IMPORTANT: Use the drive letter for your fixed SCSI
hard drive in place of D: when using the Disk Copy
command line.
You can also run the Iomega SCSI Utilities in menu mode
to carry out the copy. Make sure you select the Append
option before starting the copy.
6. Shut down the system and turn off power to the
computer. Restore your adapter ROM settings and disk
drive SCSI ID settings to the configuration needed to
boot from the fixed SCSI hard disk.
Download Driver Pack
After your driver has been downloaded, follow these simple steps to install it.
Expand the archive file (if the download file is in zip or rar format).
If the expanded file has an .exe extension, double click it and follow the installation instructions.
Otherwise, open Device Manager by right-clicking the Start menu and selecting Device Manager.
Find the device and model you want to update in the device list.
Double-click on it to open the Properties dialog box.
From the Properties dialog box, select the Driver tab.
Click the Update Driver button, then follow the instructions.
Very important: You must reboot your system to ensure that any driver updates have taken effect.
For more help, visit our Driver Support section for step-by-step videos on how to install drivers for every file type.
