The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft MS-DOS operating system versions 6.0, 6.2, 6.22
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 DoubleSpace attempts to automatically mount a drive and fails (due to lack of
available drive letters), subsequent attempts also fail even if you free up
additional drive letters.
CAUSE
=====
This situation occurs when DoubleSpace doesn't detect a disk change after the
drive letter is made available.
RESOLUTION
==========
To work around this situation, remove the removable media disk from the drive,
reinsert it, and then issue a command that will allow DoubleSpace to mount the
drive (for example, DIR A:).
