Hi everybody,

Has anyone successfully got a Zip drive to work under VRPC-SE?

I've attached my drive and successfully installed the software, but the drive icon doesn't show on the icon bar. Win XP can see the drive, so I can always drag files from and to the drive via Windoze, but it would be nice to have it working natively in RISC OS.

There is currently no direct support for ZIP drives in Virtual Acorn - Parallel, Ide, SCSI, USB or otherwise. The only way they can be used is to add a hostfs mount which points at the ZIP drive drive letter and use DOS formatted ZIP disks.
