I originally posted this topic a couple weeks ago.

 I just need to access an old Seagate 125 Meg HD that is currently
compressed with Drivespace3 I have Windows 95 (original release, without
Service Pack 1) The problem is that when I went try and boot it up as
master, the thing wouldn't boot,
I would get an intert disk and continue prompt.  So, I decided to slave
it
to the New HD (Seagate 1.0 Gig, Fat 16).

The new problem I need Drive Space 3 to access that drive , not
DriveSpace.  I don't intend to Compress a drive, I just need to get on to
one, get the important data
I need off of it (mom's checkbook), decompress it and format it.

I hope everyoneunderstands this time around.
