| It sounds like you're trying to restore to a compressed drive, which SQL doesn't allow. Check this link for details:http://blogs.msdn.com/b/sqlblog/archive/2006/10/02/sql-server-databases-are-not-supported-on-compressed-volumes.aspx |

| Are you completely sure? Because that error is thrown when restoring a database to a compressed folder. Check the folder properties, make sure that compression isn't checked.--Gail ShawSQL Server MVP |
