Colorado Memory Systems Travan on XP

Hi,

I've an old Travan 1.4Gb Tape drive from Colorado Memory Systems which must be connected to the floppy drive cable. This unit i want to install on an old Compaq EP machine which runs under XP SP2. I've been looking for the correct drivers but i couldn't find them.

Is there somebody who know where i can find them or send them by email

Thanks, Peter

Peter, Sorry to say, that tape drive will not work in XP. Microsoft discontinued support for all floppy based tape drives. Besides, you can get just as much information on a USB memory stick and much faster. Time to put the old tape drive to rest I'm afaid
