Has anyone out there noticed a problem when using an internal 250mb zip
drive writing large files to a 100mb zip disk.  I have one machine that
locks up for a 8-15 minutes to write large files examples include (power
point presentation 50mb file).  It has never locked up while writing a large
file to a 250mb disk.


The machine in question is a 8200 Dimension, it has the XP operating system.
IDE devices are One CDRom, One CD-R/RW, One Hard Drive and One Iomega 250mb
zip Drive.  Factory Strapping for Master/Slave/Cable select.

Previous Corrective Action:

I have already had the drive replaced, loaded all service packs, for XP and
office, and loaded the iomega ware software.  Dell can't give me an answer.

Any previous experiences, known solutions or causes to this problem would be
appreciated,
