For those of you who have had problems running your Zip GSX in your
ROM 01 GS, there is a simple fix. Give Zip Tech a call and ask them
for the shorter cable. It turns out that the ROM 01 hardware is
electrically noisy, and the Zip chokes on it. The new cable is a bit
shorter and noise is less of an issue. Note that ROM 03 machines
shouldn't be having a problem. I sent my card back (again - I'll be
getting my 4th!) to let them wrestle with it while I move. I hope this
really fixes things!
