i used drvspace to compress the drive and i wanted to format the drive, it was split into c:\ and h:\, i accidently formatted h:\ and ever time i boot up it sais "Non-System disk or disk error Replace and press any key when ready" Help!!!!!

i accidently formatted h:\ You erased the container file for your compressed drive and you erased all the bootup files. When you've compressed a drive, the h: drive is the original uncompressed drive with the bootup files and the container file which holds the compressed data. The container file becomes the c: drive but it's actually just a huge file on the h: drive, which you formatted. You might try the unformat command. You can try using a data recovery program (one is at my web page) like Norton Disk Doctor. If that fails, you'll have to reinstall everything from scratch.

Since you were trying to format it anyways, just delete the partition and then make a new one.....that would be the most simple way to start over... you should always do that if you want to uncompress a drive (and you don't want the data)

but i cant even access dos not anything, how can i run any programs?

If you formated your dive H: Then you no longer have a boot drive ok. Do This: 1. If you have your dos setup disk. this is the Dos.622 software insert the disk that contain the Dos software program in to drv a: and RUN SETUP. Enter this comm from a:setup THIS WILL INSTALL DOS622 OPERATING SYSTEM If during the setup operation you are ask if you would like to run drive space then do so at that time. If Not Then Run Drive space after you have run setup ok. Then remove the setup disk from a: and reboot the system if it dose not boot from c: then, insert the setup disk in drv a: and reset the system. 2. from drive a: enter this command sys c: and wait you'll see a message stateing system file transfered ok. 3. Remove disk from drv a: and reset again. Comment:If in the future you need to format your hard drv use drive space to do the job ok. How? Enter drivespace and use the pull down menu to select the formst command ok.
