6. The Settings windows will tell you the current drive letter for the Zip ATAPI drive. To set a specific drive letter for the Zip drive, select the desired drive letter in the dialog box for "Start drive letter". Note that the same drive letter should appear in the dialog box for "End drive letter". ■ NOTE: If "Reserved drive letters" is grayed out, it is probably because your Zip drive is being detected in BIOS. Run your computer's CMOS setup and disable BIOS support for the Zip drive, then follow the instructions for changing the Zip drive letter. ■ Microsoft Disk Copy Utilities When copying disks in the Zip drive, do not use Microsoft DISKCOPY.EXE or the CopyDisk utility that is available when you right mouse click on the Zip drive icon. These utilities only work correctly with floppy drives. Installing Applications to the Zip Drive Certain applications and games will install only to a fixed disk. In order to install these programs to the Zip drive, first right mouse click on the Zip drive icon in either My Computer or Windows Explorer and select "Make Nonremovable". This enables the software to install by making the Zip drive appear as a hard drive to the system. After the software installation is complete, again right mouse click on the Zip drive icon and select "Make Removable" to restore disk removability. Installing Third Party Software Some software install programs must have a disk present in every drive connected to the system (including the Zip ATAPI drive) in order to run properly. If a disk is not inserted in the Zip ATAPI drive during such an installation, you will see a "System Error" blue screen reading the Zip drive letter. Simply insert a disk in the Zip drive to continue the installation. BIOS/CMOS Support Your computer should ship with BIOS support for the Zip ATAPI drive disabled in the CMOS Setup. If your system includes autodetection, it should be turned off for the Zip ATAPI drive. 10
