The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft MS-DOS operating system versions 6.2, 6.22 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

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
========

If your DBLSPACE.INI file contains a command to mount a compressed volume file
(CVF) that contains internal errors, DBLSPACE.BIN displays the following
message:

  DoubleSpace found a problem on compressed drive <drive>.

  To continue the startup process, press ENTER. Then, correct the problem by
  typing SCANDISK <drive>: at the command prompt.

If you press either the Clean Boot (F5) or Interactive Boot (F8) keys, your
response is taken as a response to the above prompt. (The system does not
perform a clean start or an interactive start.)

RESOLUTION
==========

To work around this problem, press F5 twice to clean boot the system or F8 twice
to boot the system interactively.
