Compression driver cannot be set up correctly.

Issue

The compression driver cannot be set up correctly. Get a version from your vendor that is compatible with this version of Windows. Press any key to continue.

Cause

The incorrect version of the boot files are not in the root directory of the bootable drive.

Solution

Using a Windows bootable diskette, boot the computer and at the A:\> prompt type the below command.

sys c:

This should return "System Transferred." Once transferred, reboot the computer without the diskette and the issue should be resolved.
