Hello! I have an older 100 MB Zip parallel port drive
attached to a Dell Dimension 4500 running Windows XP with
Service Pack 1.
I have problems transfering files to and from the ZIP
drive, mostly with speed. It takes a very long time to
transfer. Sometimes it takes a very long time just to see
the ZIP disk directory in Windows Explorer.
Microsoft's Knowledge Base says the 15 second hang with a
ZIP parallel port drive is fixed with SP1, which I have,
yet I still get a hang often.
What changes can I make in the parallel port settings to
improve performance, if any? Any other ideas (other than
buying a USB drive!)? Thanks.
