I know that the files on the Windows 2000 Pro CD a compressed or something.
For example, I need to get scsiport.sys off of original Windows CD. But the
file is called scsiport.sy_

How do I uncompress the scsiport.sys file so that I can use it? I need to
get the original scsiport off of CD.

Thanks.
 
From a command prompt you can expand the files. An example;

expand E:\I386\calc.ex_ %windir%\system32\calc.exe

would expand a new copy of calc.exe to the \system32 directory.
