 once you have the drives installed and can boot to the one you want to keep use drivespace or what ever compression program to mount the compressed drive.<br />
&nbsp;once it it's mounted you can access it and copy or move files from explore.<br />
&nbsp;then uncompress and reformat the drive with you compression progam.<br />
&nbsp;if that is helpful great if not let me know.<br />
&nbsp;good luck<br />

I have a system with Win 95 OSR2, one hard drive using Fat32, and no compression. &nbsp;I have another older hard drive that I have moved to the OSR2 system. &nbsp;The older hard drive was the first hard drive in a system. &nbsp;It has Win 95 (not OSR2) but was using file compression. &nbsp;What can I do to access files in the compressed volume of the old hard drive. I want to copy them to the Fat32 drive before reforming the old drive. &nbsp;i.e. What can I do to enable the OSR2 system to recognize the files in the compressed volume. &nbsp;I do not want to use compression on either hard drive when I am finished.
