  I was just wondering ,How I might open or restore an old compressed file...I had to use a ghost image to restore
    my computer,some-thing got in and ate up my system files???the closer I got to fixing it ,the more it seemed to eat..
     but I have some files under, old compressed files, that I might be able to save???But,I cant dont know how to
     open them???Iam useing XP pro..any help would be good..if not I am just going to fdsk, and start over...
           I also tried useing Norton System Works repair disks that you make ,under support..But they wont
      work with NTFS file system, may be I'll go back to FAT32.....what do you think????
        THANK ANY-ONE for your comments,,,,,,,,Jtresnowsky@hotmail.com
