The other thing is that QubIDE will not read/write to a PC formatted hard disk - it has to be in QL format, which QPC2 cannot read (or correct me if I am wrong)

Many thanks for your reply.

I have Omega installed on QPC2 using XP no problems. If I could get it to
work on my aurora I would be able backup my harddisk easier than using
floppies and if needed I could copy larger files from one machine to the
other.

At the moment I have Omega connected to the Aurora in the printer lead but
Qubide is not picking it up.

This is why I asked if it was IDE, parallel, or USB Iomega drive.

ONLY the IDE version will work on your QL with Qubide. There are no drivers
for a parallel port version, even if the parallel printer connector
supported bidirectional working. Sorry, but if it works through the printer
port on your PC it doesn't stand a chance of working on the QL.

The IDE type I mentioned should connect via the hard disk connector on the
QUBIDE interface.
