It may depend on driver software. I don't know about Macs, but in a similar situation, Windows XP would not load the driver for my old serial Zip 100 (or, to put it another way, the driver knew nothing of XP, so couldn't insert itself into the right place). I got a USB connected Zip 250, which reads and writes at 100 Mbyte capacity also. This is more convenient for a portable, as it draws its power from the USB port, whereas the old Zip needs mains. Also, you do need a serial port on the new computer, but I have that on mine. -- Ken Moore [EMAIL PROTECTED] Web site: http://www.mooremusic.org.uk/ I reject emails > 100k automatically: warn me beforehand if you want to send one _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
