I'd appreciate help with 2 situations...

1. A while back, I got a blue-screen message warning of a mismatch between DriveSpace VxD and DriveSpace real mode driver. I deleted all files containing the word DriveSpace, but the blue screen continues, at boot. Where do I find DriveSpace, to re-install it?

2. I bought & successfully installed a used Conner 540mb drive. When I re-formatted it ( in win98 ) my only option was to identify it as a 120 drive. UnFormat was unsuccessful. How do I re-establish the drive as a 540?

This is in responce to your second question. If you are running any drive overlay software like EZ drive you have to format and partition the drive using the drive overlay software. I jst run into the same problem with a drive i installed I knew the drive should have been recognized fully by the bios but it would only give me 1/2 the drive in windows or dos... forgot about the overlay software i was running... Formated with ez drive and works great again..
