I would like to use an external 100mb Zip disk drive on my 5160 running DOS v5.
I currently have the device plugged into the parallel port on my CGA card.
I have some drivers that I downloaded from somewhere a while ago, but not quite sure what to do with them. The folder has lots of files on, and some setup programs for Win95. I think the dos drivers are in there too. I know there is something with Guest.exe you need.
Does anyone have any tips, or a lead on some drivers?
I seem to be getting issues reading 360k floppys when I transfer them to my 486 computer with a 1.2mb drive, copy the files, and then put them back in my XT. Many times my 5150 and 5160 cannot read the disks after that, or struggle with them. I format the disk on my XT, then put it in the 486. The 486 detects that its 360k. I copy the files fine, but when I put the disk back into my IBMs, they always have issues reading the data.
Also, it would be nice to copy bigger files.
