APPLIES TO
- Microsoft MS-DOS 6.22 Standard Edition
This article was previously published under Q115866
SYMPTOMS
The following error message is displayed when you try to run DriveSpace:
Your computer is running with an incompatible version of
the DRVSPACE.BIN file. You must update DRVSPACE.BIN on
the root directory of drive <drive letter>.
This error message is also displayed if you try to run DoubleSpace;
however, <drive letter> is replaced by an at symbol (@) rather than the
actual drive letter.
At this point, your DoubleSpace-compressed volumes may be inaccessible.
CAUSE
This error occurs after you install MS-DOS 6.22 to a directory other than
the one that contains your MS-DOS 6.0 DoubleSpace files (typically C:\DOS).
In this situation, the DBLSPACE.BIN file is not properly updated.
RESOLUTION
To correct this problem, uninstall MS-DOS 6.22 and then reinstall MS-DOS
6.22 into the directory that contains your MS-DOS files.
