When DoubleSpace attempts to automatically mount a DoubleSpace-
compressed drive at startup and the drive is too fragmented to be
mounted, DoubleSpace automatically increases the MaxFileFragments
setting in the DBLSPACE.INI file and restarts the computer. If you
then manually unmount the DoubleSpace-compressed drive,
MaxFileFragments is reset to the default value (112). As a result, you
cannot remount the drive manually.

To work around this problem, press CTRL+ALT+DEL to restart your
computer and then defragment your DoubleSpace-compressed drive.
