I have a 80GB drive that I just reformatted and now it is showing up in
2 different drive letters as J: and as L: . How do I fix this so it
only has a single drive letter; it is not a compressed drive.

Does it have one single partition or two? If two, it will have two drive
letters. Have you rebooted after the format?

If you have a card reader ,internal or external, unplug it first.

Dismount the compressed volume.....? Compressed drives haven't really been
the "in-thing" since "DriveSpace" in Windows 3.1.

But I have a feeling it is more a matter that the drive is partitioned -
each partition is treated as a separate disk drive.
