Colorado T1000e disappears

[David Giering]

My t1000e runs fine on my HP Vectra (P166 MMX) but when I put it on a Cyrixs 333 M/C it is recognised for a short while then no backup device is found even though it still says it is the "target " backup device.Any help appreciated.

David:

Consider the software settings in the following link:

or, try different settings for the Parallel port in BIOS.

Good luck.
