drivers for zip and Jaz drive

I have tried to install Vista and it won't let me until I update the drivers
for a parallel port 100mb Zip drive and a SCSI attached 1GB Jaz drive. Both
of the devices are supported by XP and I am unable to find any newer drivers
for them. Does anyone know how I can bypass this error or get the drivers
that Vista will accept. Any help will be appreciated....

Re: drivers for zip and Jaz drive

Remove the hardware and then install Vista.
Contact the hardware manufacturers and ask about Vista drivers.

I would remove the hardware but my backups are on Jaz media, and would
require the drive to be available to Vista. I will send IOMEGA a note and see
if they have an update for Vista.
