cannot boot from the Zip drive.

Eject a Zip disk manually.

To install the Zip drive software

The Zip drive comes with a CD containing software for the Zip drive. Follow these
steps to set up this software.

1. Set up a CD-ROM drive for your OmniBook. (The Zip drive does not have to be

installed at this time.)

2. Insert the Zip CD in the CD-ROM drive.

3. Click Start, Run, then type drive

@MRWXEPP and click OK, where drive is the drive

letter of the CD-ROM drive. For example, type

H@MRWXEPP if the CD-ROM is drive D.

This installs the Zip software so it’s ready whenever you insert the Zip drive.

If you are using Windows NT and have purchased a Zip drive, you must download
and install the latest version of the Phoenix APM and Card Executive drivers. These
NT drivers must be installed for your Zip drive to work properly. To obtain the
drivers and more information, go to the HP OmniBook website at
http://www.hp.com/omnibook.

The update to the Phoenix drivers contains the Zip-fix hotfix from Microsoft.
