I've used DriveSpace 3's compressed drives, but now it says that it can't connect it. So, the only thing I have is 200M file named drvspace.002 .
No it is not lost. when you compress a drive you turn all that data into a compressed volume file that is what drvspace.002 is . To help you i need more data did you compress your c drive or did you compress another drive are you running win95 or 98 is windows running or not try this a a possible fix for now edit your config.sys on the c:\ drive and add then line devicehigh=c:\windows\command\drvspace.sys /move , that might work but and then reboot your computer if not repost
