For various reasons, I'm trying to access an EXT3 partition from Windows. I

7. Running the remaining options under 64-bit Win only seems to make things

Hi!
Ext2 IFS /does/ work in Windows 7, but there's a trick you need to know.
You need to use the Windows compatibility settings for the program's
installer when you run it, and set it to be compatible with Windows
Vista SP2. For some mysterious reason, this does the trick. I couldn't
swear it works on 64 bit ... can't recall if I tried this. I think it
will be OK though.
