Included on the setup disk for your zip drive is a ASPI driver for the = parallael prot zip. I believe it is acalled ASPIPPA3.SYS and can be loaded in the config.sys The guest.exe driver that you use to set up your zip drive actually uses = this driver if you are not scsi. This driver will also work with the = Iomega Parallel port Zip interface. Question? Can the IOMEGA Mac Zip = Tools run under executor? ---------- From: Clifford T.

It might be possible for someone to kludge an ASPI driver for the parallel drive, and then Executor would work on it, but I don't think anyone has done such a thing, nor do I think anyone is planning on it.
