Installing Other Applications on the
Drive
IBM does not support any software for your Zip drive that was not
included in the option package.
Some applications and games can be installed only on a hard disk. To
install these programs on the Zip IDE drive, you must first
double-click on the Zip drive icon in My Computer or Windows
Explorer, and then select Make Nonremovable. Your computer will
now recognize your Zip IDE drive as a hard disk drive and you can
install your application. After the software installation completes,
double-click on the Zip drive icon and select Make Removable to
restore disk removability.
Some software programs will display System Error on the computer
screen if there is no diskette in your Zip IDE drive. Simply insert a
Zip diskette (not included) in the Zip drive to continue the software
installation.
Using the Zip IDE Drive and Zip
Diskettes
Attention: You must use Zip 100 MB diskettes (not included)
with your Zip IDE drive. You will damage your drive if you use
any other kind of diskette.
You can use your Zip drive like any other drive on your computer
system. Your Zip drive will have its own drive letter, and you can
copy files to and from the Zip drive.
You can use the Zip IDE Drive and Zip diskettes to:
Conserve hard disk drive space by storing up to 100 MB of data
on a Zip diskette
Transport large amounts of information on Zip diskettes
Back up and archive files
Store multimedia files that use large amounts of storage space
