Zip 250mb Disks
Ok, so I have had my zip drive for a while now, and recently some of my disk have become corrupted, so everytime I try to go and open the disk, it just stalls. Ive tried formatting it from command prompt but all I get is I was "Error in IOCTL call."
Im wondering is there any way of formatting the disk so I would be able to use it again?
Thanks
Do you get any nasty clicking?
I don't know if click of death affected the 250MB models or not but it was rife in the 100MB ones.
PHP Code:$s = new signature();
$s->sarcasm()->intellect()->font('Courier New')->display();
Clicking? I cant say that i can hear anything, accept for the drive scanning the disk.
I know in the past drivers have been problems - so make sure you have up to date ones, then try the zip tools to format it.

I tried the latest zip tools no luck there. Couldnt find any drivers though, didnt seem that Iomega needed to supply any for win xp, so i couldnt try out any other drivers. Any other ideas anyone might have?
the click was just for the 100mb's.
Try a large magnet and have another go, or scandisk / spinrite
