Well...find a PC with both drive sizes (or at least two machines with a common
network drive).  Get the ARJ compressor since it has much better multi-volume
support.  Install the game from the 3.5 onto the PC.  Type
arj a -r -v1200 a:\u7.arj and insert extra disks when asked.
Take these 5.25's over to  your pc and do: arj x -v a:\u7.arj and the 6 meg
or so will be decompressed to your hard drive.
Have fun. (Change the a: to whatever drive happens to be around.  :-)
