Lost a hard drive. Put new one in. Drive letters shuffled. Disconnected ZIP
drive, reorganized drive letters the way I want. Re-connected ZIP drive -
now I can't access any ZIP disks.

Error message: drive not ready.
Disk Admin says drive offline.
Iomega NT tools diagnostics check OK.

ZIP last drive in chain. Was using ZIP onboard termination. Changed to
separate internal terminator on cable. No Joy.
Swapped out ZIP drive and cable with known working units; no help. Cables
and ZIP from this computer work fine in other computer (i.e. doesn't appear
to be hardware).
All other devices on this SCSI channel work OK.
ZIP drive worked fine before this.

Sounds like some kind of NT disk configuration settings (registry?), but I
don't know where to start. No I don't have a recovery disk. Didn't find
anything in Dejanews or the KB. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

TIA,

phdoom
