Find someone with IT experience to get your solution going if you don't follow mine, but mine is simple. It would probably have worked on Windows 10 as well, but my Windows 10 desktop does not have an EIDE connector so I was forced to acquire the adapter spoken of. This page has a lot of drivers for the USB Zip drives, and I tried one of them on a Windows 98 Second Edition retrobox and it worked with the ATAPI Zip 250 connected directly to the motherboard's EIDE connector (no adapter required). No software 'should' be required as the PCI-to-EIDE adapter will operate the ATAPI Zip drive from the auspices of its own SCSI driver. Once you get that hooked up in Windows you will have access to your drive and Zip disks without any additional software. Visit to learn more about their products and services. Whether you need hard drive, network storage, multimedia devices, or Rev and Zip removable storage, Iomega has the right product for you. I got mine locally from a local used computer parts dealer: Iomega is a leading provider of external storage solutions for personal and professional use. Purchase an ATAPI Zip 250 drive from a junk peddler on eBay. Purchase a PCI (or PCIe)-to-EIDE adapter for desktop computers. I also learned from this forum that there are no driver updates beyond Windows XP. Just plugging in the USB cable activates the drive. I was able to just plug in my Iomega 250 Zip Drive and download my date. I did learn through a forum that driver software is not required for the USB supported Zip Drives. I would advise anyone against subscribing to Driver Navigator. I will have to go to PayPal and get them to arbitrate. I have told them why I do not wish to continue use of their software and they keep trying to get me to keep it. Driver Navigator is continuing to try to get me to keep the software and is not wanting to refund my money, even though they state a 60 day 100 percent refund if not satisfied. Its not dead, for Windows 7 reads it quick and easy. I copied them fine, but when plugging the HDD to my Windows 10 PC, Windows 10 fails to recognize the drive. I decided to back up my Windows 7 files from one PC and bring them to my other Windows 10 PC. Driver Navigator refunded my money immediately, without question. I recently obtained a 1 TB iomega External HDD. After subscribing to Driver Navigator and Driver Update, I learned this was not true. It gave the appearance that they could provide Iomega Zip Drive support.

I went to the referenced address and found several companies offering help with downloading drivers.
