Iomega USB Drive System Performance Seems Slow.
Other USB devices connected at the same time as the Iomega Peerless drive system can affect the Iomega
Peerless drive system's performance, especially digital cameras or scanners that are processing large
amounts of data. If you are using a hub to connect several devices to your computer, disconnect the other
devices and connect the device directly to either of the computer's USB ports.
Your Iomega USB Drive System Stops Responding (Locks up), or
Information Gets Lost or Corrupted While You Are Saving or Copying Files.
The problem is probably due to a non-compliant USB controller chip or other USB device on your computer
system. Try the following suggestions:
l
Carefully follow the USB guidelines
. They are designed to help you avoid some of the problems caused
by non-compliant USB devices.
l
Upgrade your system software to Windows 98 Second Edition. This version of Windows 98 includes
USB driver upgrades that fix most of the problems associated with USB controllers and motherboards.
l
If the problem still continues, you may want to upgrade the USB controller in your computer system to
one that complies with the latest USB specification. In this case, contact your computer manufacturer
for help.
