I had a standard Iomega zip 100mb drive back in 99 that I had in my old computer. I was using win95 on that computer so the disk was formatted in a FAT file system. I put allot of files on there that I have been trying to get off now. But the thing is im running winXP which uses NTFS. Basically this is what it tells me when I try to access the drive.
This disk was compressed using DriveSpace 3, which requires Windows 95.
To use this disk, you must first mount it. To mount it:
1. Run DriveSpace by choosing Run from the Windows 95 Start menu,
and then typing DRVSPACE.
2. In DriveSpace, click the drive that contains this disk,
click the Advanced menu, and then click Mount.
(If this file is located on a drive other than the physical drive
that contains the disk, then the compressed drive is already mounted).
To automatically mount all available compressed drives, click the
Advanced menu, click Settings, and then check the "Automatically mount
new compressed drives" box.
IMPORTANT: To mount and use this compressed disk, you must be running
Windows 95 and DriveSpace 3.
Does anyone know if it is possible to recover these files on winXP?
