Other's guesses may have already gotten to the bottom of this, but let me see if I understand this correctly: this Zip drive recognizes disks it formats, but no other zip drive can recognize them. And this Zip drive can't recognize disks formatted in other Zip drives (until you reformat them in this quiet loner of a drive)? If I've got it right, then my guess would be misaligned head(s) in that Zip drive. We saw a variety of issues when trying to get to the bottom of the Zip "click of death." Some drives which developed the click would die completely, others would read progressively less of a disk from one use to the next, and others would work fine with disks they formatted (but those disks couldn't be used in any other Zip drive until reformatted in the next drive). You may still have other issues going on as well. I.E., it may be a hardware issue *and* a software configuration issue, as Will S. has suggested. -Kennedy -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
