PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method and a computer system for integrating a compression system with an operating system. SOLUTION: In order to ensure allocation of a drive character predetermined for a nonstandard device when installing a nonstandard device driver, a drive character allocated to a compressed volume installed beforehand is re-allocated. When installing the compression system, an undetermined loading list is retained for the compressed volume unloaded yet. After installing each nonstandard device driver, the undetermined loading list is checked, and it is determined which compressed volume can be loaded. When installing the nonstandard device driver, the drive character is allocated. If the drive character in not the predetermined drive character, an allocation scheme of the drive character is provided for re-allocating the drive character. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
