The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft Windows 95
 * Microsoft Plus! for Windows 95

-

SYMPTOMS
When you start Windows 95 using the Safe Mode Command Prompt Only option, you do not see the real-mode DriveSpace or DoubleSpace driver listed when you run the MEM command with the /C or /D switch, even if you are using a compressed drive.

CAUSE
When you start Windows 95 using the Safe Mode Command Prompt Only option, the memory allocated to the real-mode compression driver appears as part of the IO System Data entry instead of appearing separately.

RESOLUTION
To view the real-mode DoubleSpace or DriveSpace driver in memory, start Windows 95 with the Command Prompt Only option instead of the Safe Mode Command Prompt Only option, and then run the MEM command with the /C or /D switch.
