I installed Word Perfect for windows 5.1 yesterday, and it pretty much nuked
my system.  I'm pretty sure most of the damage is in the autoexec.bat, and
the config.sys, and possibly some pretty heavy damage to the winos2 stuff.
If anyone has any info on where to start making repairs, please send me some
email.

OS2 won't boot anymore.  The drive sits there and runs in a forever state.
Nothing happens but the HD starting up after the usual mem check & ect. at
the beginning.  No logo screens or anything that might suggest OS2 coming on
line.  Thanks in advance.

Don't need it anymore. It's taken care of by the service pack in some other

I have a 486-33, 8 meg RAM, 240 meg IDE HD (~119 meg FAT w/DOS,
~80 meg HPFS w/OS/2, an Boot manager), Tseng4000 based

How should I install the SP?

Well it's a damn sight smarter than Selective Install then, which once-upon-
a-time had me insert disks 6-15 when I wanted to change my mouse, and didn't 
even read anything off them!

The apology: I've moaned previously about not being able to change my mouse 
from serial to bus through Selective Install or CONFIG.SYS jiggery-pokery.

Well, the full story is that my bus mouse card was broken. I substituted 
another and I'm laughing now (or I will be when my ears cool off).

For future reference: Selective Install does nothing when you change the 
mouse (from serial to bus anyway) except update CONFIG.SYS, which you can do 
yourself: 

where it says
DEVICE=C:\OS2\MOUSE.SYS /SERIAL=COM2:

change to
DEVICE=C:\OS2\MOUSE.SYS

or vice versa of course.

I had this problem on one icon, but have been unable to duplicate
it.  To fix it:  when you save the icon from iconedit, save ONLY
in the form "independent color form (=vga)"  whatever that means.
I notice that this is the default form saved when you create
a new icon also.  Would anyone who has RTFiconeditM care to comment
on what's going on?

OK, ready?

First, do not use STARTUP.CMD.  Create a program object which runs
this CMD file.  Do so by dragging a Program template from the
Templates folder to any other folder.  Botch the name at first (e.g.
C:\OS2START.CM1), then go to the second page and check "Start
Minimized."  Go back to the first page of the notebook and fix the
name of the program (to C:\OS2START.CMD, in this example).  Close up
the notebook settings.  Drag a shadow of this program object to your
Startup Folder (located in OS/2 System).

That should do it.

I assume you are using the beta MMPM/2 SoundBlaster drivers, available
via anonymous ftp from software.watson.ibm.com, correct?

Combining MMPM/2 with the third party drivers (which do not require
MMPM/2) is not what you want to do.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tim this doesn't answer the question! How do you get MMPM/2 to recognize any sound card.
I installed it from the beta 10-92 CDROM and could not find any help or menus which indicated
it would support the Sound Blaster or a Media Vision Thunderboard. I was left with the impression that
MMPM/2 only supports IBM hardware, but of course the documentation didn't say that either.

I install the TSENG 1024x768x256 drivers, and found that the 
WPS came up interlaced! I tried editing svgadata.pmi to change the
Interlace= settings, but that didn't help. What I did finally was to
run 'DMODE 38 60Hz', and then 'SVGA on', and shutdown. That fixed it
but windows full screen was still interlaced.

The solution to windows being interlaced was to edit the d:\autoexec.bat
file and add

D:\OS2\MDOS\ISWINDOW
IF NOT ERRORLEVEL = 1 C:\BIN\VGA\DMODE 38 60Hz

Which fixed the windows full screen problem, and prevented DMODE
being run within windows (which generally causes problems)


Cheers!

Try using a newer version. The last one I used was snews-20.zip,
from ftp-os2.nmsu.edu.

This version fixed that, and made quite a few other improvements.
It is very good, but I must confess to running trn now.  I often

I have a CD-ROM drive purchased through DAK(it has BSR on the case, but

As a point of interest, I can't tell what bus it uses.  The manual says

What you might be refering to is the difference between a hardware interupt
setting and a software interupt setting.  On the IBM PC's interupts 0-7 are
used by various processes.  e.g. INT 0 divide by 0 trap, INT 1 Single step,
INT 2 Various errors, INT 3 Breakpoint, INT 4 Overflow trap, INT 5 print
screen, etc...  (Source: The Programmers PC Sourcebook 2nd Edition pg 4-5)

To handle the hardware interrupts what happens is that the hardware interrupt
has 8 added to it to become the software interrupt.  e.g. Keyboard has a
hardware IRQ 1 but has a software INT 9, COM1 has IRQ4 but INT 0Ch, etc...
I believe with some programming of the Programmable Interupt Controller (PIC)
you can change where the hardware interrupts go to in the software chain but
I don't know why you would want to do that.

The first 8 INT locations were set up by Intel so they really can't be
changed.  If you have any questions feel free to drop me a line.

Preinstalled OS/2 is at Version 2.00.1, which is something like GA
plus the Service Pack (but not exactly).

IBM does routinely update its distribution -- you'll see "Refresh
level xxxx" on the outside of the box.  I understand that OS/2 2.0
retail packages, however, won't get updated until Win-OS/2 3.1 is
ready.

Not bad video RAM on 99% of video adapters, but bad cache RAM, yes,
certainly.  A "bad" motherboard, too, might cause the problem (i.e.
the motherboard and the memory don't get along for whatever reason).

We have a system with bad cache RAM.  Try disabling the cache, if you
can, and see how things go.

Correct.  Though putting a coprocessed(accelerated) video board on a
vl-bus slot will give *some* improvement, just not nearly as much as
moving a ET4000 card from ISA to vl-bus.  Why?  That's obvious, what
ever data that is being moved, is being faster.

Of course, this is where "value" comes into question.  If you buy an
ISA system and get an ATI Ultra Pro that give you a 25million winmark,
and someone else pays $500 more for a system with a vl-bus and a vl-bus
ATI Ultra Pro that gets 30million winmarks, which is better?

Video drivers also play a *very* important part, espescially on true
coprocessed cards, but on accelerated ones as well.

I would suggest checking your WIN-OS2 notebook settings.
The Service Pack installation may have changed some of the
settings. I also got an error when running WIN-OS2 after 
installing the service pack but it went away after I put my 
settings back the way they were set. Sorry I cannot be
specific on which setting to check as my PC is at home
and I saw the problem on only 1 win application. Also you
can try to Migrate you Win application again if you dont
recall what the settings were. The migration may setup
the settings properly for you.
