I'm using an LS-120 drive on an XP systen- works well. How can I get another
one that I have, to install on my Wife's compter also using XP? The disk out
of the box says - only for Windows 95. The computer says it's installed but
apparently I need a driver for XP. Any solutions out there?

No idea whether it will help or not, but ... have you tried setting the
compatability mode to win95?

XP will probably just see the device as a floppy...

Why not take all the files you need and just burn them to a cd or dvd?

No, it can correctly see it as a 120-MB diskette drive. But you do have to
have the proper driver for it.

There are drivers here, http://www.storagedrivers.com/companies/630.htm but
I have no experience with them and can't personally recommend any. Google
can probably find more driver sources.
