SYMPTOMS
After starting a computer that is running Windows NT Workstation 4.0 and that has an Iomega Parallel Port Zip 100 drive, version 1.2 or 1.41, installed, you may receive the following error message:

Stop 0x0000000A driver scsiport.sys (corrupted file).

The error message may not cite parameters. If you remove the Zip drive, the error message no longer appears.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this behavior, do one or more of the following:


 * 1) Verify that the Zip drive is turned on and is connected to the parallel port.
 * 2) Try a different parallel port mode in the system BIOS settings.
 * 3) Try removing any printer drivers that might be conflicting with the Zip drive.



MORE INFORMATION
You may want to try reinstalling the Zip drivers. This procedure explains how to install the Parallel Port Zip drivers on Windows NT Workstation 4.0.
 * 1) Obtain Iomega Tools for Windows NT, version 1.5 or later.
 * 2) On the Windows NT Workstation 4.0 desktop, in Control Panel, double-click SCSI Adapters.
 * 3) Click Drivers, and then click Add.
 * 4) Click Have Disk, and then insert the first installation disk.
