John, Don't know what else to tell you then except to reinstall the Itools again and to go to the Iomega site to get the latest update. Quick question....are those ID #'s shown as SCSI ID's? Are all the connections tight? I wonder since you say that one time the SCSI Probe sees the drive and not other times..I have found that sometimes the ac connection will provide enough power to run the green light but not enough to operate the drive so it can be seen by the rest of the system.. Do you have anything else connected to the cpu? It took me a while to get it set properly when I initially set it up with my Performa 5200 and then set it up on the imac with the SCSI/USB adapter.. As a last resort you can always call Iomega Tech Support for help... Regards, Mike K
