Model name: KT7A / KT7A-RAID / VP6 / KR7A / KR7A-RAID and
other motherboards based on VIA 686B / VT8233 south bridge.
Version: ALL
Symptom:
Transfer rate is slow or even crash system while duplicating data
into Iomega internal ATAPI / IDE ZIP-100 drive under Windows 98SE
or Windows 2000 on KT7A, KG7, KR7A or VP6?
Explanation:
It is timing issue caused by incompatible with VIA 686B /VT8233
south bridge and ZIP-100 drive because ZIP-100 supports PIO-0 mode
only.
Solution:
- We suggest you set ZIP to floppy mode by setting jumper to MasterA
or SlaveA.
- We suggest you set IDE port which ZIP attached to PIO mode in
BIOS. (ZIP-100 supports PIO mode 0 only)
- For Windows2000 users, please install the latest ServicePack
first.
- For Win98/Me/2000 users, install the VIA 4in1 driver v4.35
or above and reboot the computer. And then install VIA Bus Master
IDE driver 3.014
or above and reboot the computer. (For Win9x/Me users, We would
recommend you to download it and slect "Win9x Miniport
IDE Driver" while the dialogue box pops up.)
- We suggest you install
IomegaWare 3.10 or latest
version from iomega
. And reboot your system.
- You may also refer to VIA
IDE Driver Guide.
Furthermore, we can not guarantee if using this driver, any problems
