Hi, I've got a SCSI zip drive too, and got it working as an adaptec
aha152x. Is it possible you haven't jumpered it correctly as well? The
jumper setting and the software setting have to be the same (IIRC - working
off memory here). Have you turned on all the right scsi settings as well?
Contact me off-list - no point wasting bandwidth. (ps, I since upgraded my
scsi card, and would suggest you do the same if speed matters at all to you.)
