Just put in a new CUSL2 EP board and the ATAPI Zip won't read 100 MB diskettes. Any history on this issue?

does it read it as 3 1/2 floppy? if anything, disalbe the zip drive in the BIOS. Windows will pick it up automatically.... thats if you are using windows.

I had that problem with an asus p3b-f where it was reading the zip 100 as 3 1/2 floppy.. i turned in the bios and installed the iomega zip drivers and everything is fine...

reckon this helps

cheers

No, the BIOS finds it as a Zip 250, ATAPI device, but only 250 MB disks will work. It won't read or write to 100 MB disks at all. I took the Zip out and put it in another machine, a 133a chipset and it reads both 250 and 100 MB disks. Put it back in the ASUS and only 250s work. Hmmm.... I should have said this is in Windows 2000 with latest IOMEGA drivers.
