Neither zip drive works. So far as I can tell, I have all the necessary software loaded. I thought at first that it might be the CD ROM drive, but I'm hesitant to buy another one since this seems to be becoming a pattern. Thus, I am not happified. That's the extent of my rant, though. I'd just like to figure out what the problem is and if it's feasable to fix.

The connector that you see can indeed get damaged; you cannot easily replace just the connector but you can sometimes find 1400 mainboards on ebay for $30 or so. It doesn't really matter which mainboard you get as long as you have a G3 update installed, the G3 update supercedes all the original hardware. That is less than floppy or CD modules often go for.
If you don't have a G3 card then of course it matters a little more which model mainboard you get- you'd hate to move backwards.
