Bernoulli Drive Doesn't Mount with DoubleSpace Loaded (96087)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft MS-DOS operating system 6.0
  • Microsoft MS-DOS operating system 6.2
  • Microsoft MS-DOS operating system 6.22

This article was previously published under Q96087

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.

If DBLSPACE.SYS is loaded in the CONFIG.SYS file before Iomega's device driver (RCD.SYS) then the Bernoulli mount code is discarded before the Bernoulli drives become readable.

RCD.SYS should be loaded as high as possible in the CONFIG.SYS file and MUST be loaded before DBLSPACE.SYS.

NOTE: DBLSPACE.SYS does not load a device driver for DoubleSpace. It simply moves DBLSPACE.BIN in memory.

MORE INFORMATION

This problem may be corrected by later version of the Iomega driver. Contact Iomega for more information.

The Iomega and Bernoulli products included here are manufactured by vendors independent of Microsoft; we make no warranty, implied or otherwise, regarding these products' performance or reliability.
