Reading Compressed ZIP Disks with WinXP

[C Woodcox]

I have some ZIP disks thatr I compressed using DRVSPACE on
a machine running WIN 98SE. Is there anyway I can open
these disks on a machine running WinXP Home.

No! Use Win98 to decompress the files. Then copy them in an uncompressed
state to Windows XP.

Sorry, there is no way to read those in Windows XP. You will have to pull
the data off on a Windows 98 machine and put it a media that is not using
DRVSPACE.

No. Drivespace is not supported in XP. You'll have to uncompress the
ZIP disks in a Win9X system that has Drivespace installed.

Not that I am aware of. XP doesn't support drvspace. Only thing I can
think of is to find a machine that has 98 loaded on it and read the
disks. Copy the files over to an uncompressed disk to read on XP...
