    I have a windows 98 machine that is showing a drive C: and f:
    The deal is that there is only one partition for sure.
    And the contents of c and f are identical( changes made on c are also made on f) Initially I thought that maybe this was a mapped drive back to "c:" but it doesn't seem to be.
    The output of "net use" is none. And it does not show as a mapped drive under My Computer.
    fdisk shows only one primary partition without any additional partitions.
    I need help on this please because I am trying to update a program that will not update because it thinks that there are two installation of this.
    Is there a registry setting that I can check?

    I'm pretty sure that's normal behavior when you run drivespace compression utility.

    Uncompress

    Thanks Steve and you are probably right. I am not at that machine right now but I need to be able to uncompress this and remove the "host" drive.
    Do you remember how I do this?
