SUMMARY
=======
This information applies to both Microsoft DoubleSpace and Microsoft DriveSpace.
For MS-DOS 6.22, use DRVSPACE in place of DBLSPACE for commands and filenames.
SYMPTOMS
========
When using MS-DOS DoubleSpace with Windows NT configured for Dual Boot, you
cannot see your compressed files or run your MS-DOS-based programs when running
MS-DOS Prompt under Windows NT.
CAUSE
=====
To accomplish disk compression, DoubleSpace uses a device driver (loaded at
system startup) to intercept disk reads and writes from the command line and
MS-DOS-based applications. When you run MS-DOS Prompt under Windows NT, the
DoubleSpace device driver is not loaded.
