I have an 80GB IOmega USB HD (no firewire) and the latest Windows 98SE
drivers, but the drivers seem to be buggy:
1. When I run the drive removal utility just before unplugging the USB
cable, I get a blue screen that reports a fatal exception 0E error.
Windows does not crash when this happens.
2. Sometimes Windows 98SE locks up after the drive is unplugged several
times (drive removal utility always run each time).
3. If I try to remove the IOmega software, all of my drivers are
removed, even those that have nothing to do with HDs or USB -- network,
printer, graphics, etc. I tried both Windows' Add/Remove Programs and
IOmega's own removal utility.
All of this happened on two very different computers. I used VIA and
NEC USB 2.0 cards, and NEC is supposed to be make some of the best best
USB 2.0 chipsets.
Are there any alternative HD drivers that will work? This USB drive
uses a Prolific PL-2507b chipset, but I wasn't able to get Prolific's
reference driver to work with this IOmega.
