Go to NTFS DOS reader and download the NTFSDOS reader ZIP file. It has instructions on using. But basically you just copy the NTFSDOS.exe file to a copy of the Windows ME startup diskette. Then from the A:\ prompt run the NTFSDOS program and it will check for the presence of NTFS volumes and if one is found assign drive letter(s) and provide read-only support of those drives.

I have also modifed the Autoexec.bat (and others) on my Windows Startup diskette to give additional options that include one loading with the NTFSDOS reader and an option for skipping the non-IDE CD-Rom drivers so it boots faster when only using IDE attached CD-Rom drives. And options for loading SmartDRV so FAT32 disk operations run faster.
