I know this is kinda a stupid question but I can't seem to find the latest drivers for my USB powered zip 250 drive. I have the latest IomegaWare but I don't have the latest drivers. I am using Microsoft Drivers and I don't want to do that. Can someone point me to the right drivers. I have already been all over the Iomega site and can't seem to find them.

The Iomegaware contains the Drivers - doesn't it ?

IomegaWare doesn't come with drivers because my zip drive is using a microsoft disk driver. It knows that it is a zip drive but it is not an iomega driver. The reason why I need to update is because I believe that it is causeing a system crash.

I never use Iomegaware - their software has never done anything but cause trouble... XP doesn't need it, without it, you can format a ZIP disk with FAT32 (even NTFS, though not recommended) with it, you're limited to FAT10.

IomegaWare isn't the problem, it is drivers. When my zip drive is plugged in and I am using Mozilla Firebird and iTunes at the same timem, then click Alt-Tab my computer just restarts without warning. I need to update driver to see if that corrects the problem.
