Sparq IDE drives and Windows2000
I recently aquired a SyQuest SparQ 1. 0 gigabyte removable drive. When I installed it into my machine, all went well. When I installed it into my operating systems, WindowsME and Windows2000 Professional, all was well.
I recently aquired a SyQuest SparQ 1.0 gigabyte removable drive. When I installed it into my machine, all went well. When I installed it into my operating systems, WindowsME and Windows2000 Professional, all was well. When I use it in Windows2000 however, I will put a disk in, use it, and then when I try to change disks, a few things happen: 1. the drive will not eject using just the eject button on the drive, 2. when I eject it using the right click over the drive, and reinsert a new disk, and click on it, the dir shows up, but is corrupted, and the free space isnt changed 3. it errors telling me to run chkdsk, which I do, and get hundreds of errors, destroying files.
Anyone have any ideas?

I'm not having any luck installing my Sparq 1.0 under W2K. Did you just use the regular install disk that came with it? I saw some notes at http://www.ntcompatible.com/sb.shtml
that say some tweaking needs to be done with www.shuttletech.com files. I looked/tried/failed to get anywhere. Help!
