Subject: ATI Wonder card; PC Tools
Organization: University of Toronto - EPAS
Date: Fri, 13 Nov 1992 18:03:16 GMT

     I have been considering the possibility of putting OS/2 2.0 on
my machine (386DX; 8 MB ram; 2-85 MB hard disks).  I have it in
mind to keep DOS 5.0 and add OS/2, using the dual boot option. 
There are a couple of things that I am concerned about. 

(1)  I have a non-interlaced Super VGA monitor and a 1 MB ATI VGA
Wonder card (1024 x 768).  From some of the stuff I have seen here,
I have the impression that it is sometimes a problem to get OS/2
2.0 to work properly with some monitors or video cards.  Does
anyone know whether it will work okay with the set up I have
described?

(2)  Does anyone know whether OS/2 2.0 is compatible with PC Tools? 
I assume that you cannot use such utilities when you boot from
OS/2, but what about when you simply boot from DOS?  In particular,
if you use CP Backup to backup up your hard disk, will it backup
OS/2 files properly?  And will using the PC Tools disk optimizer
cause havoc with a hard disk that has OS/2 on it?  

     I would be grateful for any information anyone might have
about this.

I don't use DMODE, I use VMODE. But I noticed that you issued a DMODE 03 70
command. Shouldn't that read DMODE 2xx 70, or something? I THINK, 03 means
the video mode for which 70 Hz is choosen. And Mode 03 is the CGA resolution.
You might want to look into the manuals that came with your card and look up
the (hex) video mode number for 1024x768 display, then try again.

They are supported, but for data-only.  There is no audio CD support
for these drives yet.  You will need CDROM_G.SYS in order to use these
NEC drives under OS/2 2.0, which is a generic CD-ROM driver (available
via anonymous ftp from ftp-os2.nmsu.edu).  We have a NEC CDR83, which
is the internal version of the NEC CDR84, and it works just fine under
OS/2 2.0 with CDROM_G.

Full support for the NEC CDR84 and the CDR74 (including audio CD support)
is supposed to be coming in later CSDs/versions of OS/2 2.0.

G'Day,

	I contacted IBM support in Sydney and someone there came up with a fix. The problem was traced to the ROM BIOS on my machine being too slow. Thus, illegal instructions were being extracted and executed.

	The solution was to set the `HW_ROM_TO_RAM' setting under `DOS settings' to on and reduce the `DOS_RMSIZE' setting to 624K to make room for the ROM mapping. The ROM BIOS settings were then accessed from (much faster) RAM which eliminated the problem. It was suggested that I do this for all DOS sessions even though I have not had this problem with normal DOS sessions.

OK, IBM finally has real printer drivers for the HP Deskjet fmaily.  I DLed
them last night (this morning), hoping they would work.  The readme file
included with the drivers told me to use the eautil.exe command to add a .ea
file to each .drv file.  I typed "eautil hpdjet.drv hpdjet.ea /j /p" and the
system told me it was unable to do this command.  I then looked at the files
I had, and noticed a .cmd file that came with the new drivers.  I ran it and
it produced the same input and output.  If anyone has successfully installed
these new drivers, please tell me what to do.  I'm running the WINOS231 beta
on a 486/33 w 8 megs RAM.  I NEED my printer to work!!!!

directly to my printer, but when it tries to scan an image to the

the software used DDE.  yes, i have read the README file, and have

I built a system disk with SE20BOOT. My OS/2 system was delivered on 5-1/4
inch floppies, and I built the disk on a 3-1/2 inch disk. I then booted from
the freshly created disk, ran CHKDSK from my 3-1/2 inch set of XR06055 CSD

completely ignored by the system. I wound up hitting the reset button.

What gives? Am I doing something strange? Have I confused matters by mixing
disk sizes in creating the boot disk? Am I just going nuts? Is this a bug or a
feature?

If you are going to go w/ HPFS you will have to back up all your info
because os/2 will format the drive to HPFS.  If you decide that
you are going to use the FAT method instead, backing *should* not be
necessary... (I did it the first time i installed it, and found it
to be a useless procedure because i ended up getting confused with
all the backed-up disks lying around....)

make sure you read all the installing screens carefully if you don't
wish to backup...

but i'm getting off the original topic here....

.sig, do your work!

I am experiencing exactly the same problem.  I have 16mb of ram and have my

at the same size.  At times the swapfile will shrink but only very slightly.

I have deleted the swapfile many times but to no avail...  Someone help us

Why is it that so few of the windows in the WPS remember their size/positions?

What you need to do is start with an OS/2 installation using the
standard VGA driver.  Install the Service Pack.  Then go to a full
screen DOS session, run VMODE to set up as needed for your monitor,
then run SVGA ON.  EXIT, Shutdown, and reboot.  Then go ahead and
install the Tseng 4000 high resolution driver.

In most cases that solves the problem.

I don't know about the general vs. specific DOS session problem but
Crusaders works fine on my machine.  After I installed it I used the
migrate program (of course it didn't find it, but I used the _find_
selection to add it to the list).  The only settings I've changed are
the extended mem stuff, because wizardry doesn't use it, I think I
reduced the EMS settings as well.  My only problem is that I'm running
into a wierd problem when it tries to execute a 'sound effect', be it
via speaker or soundblaster.  The system stalls for about five seconds
and all the time  there's sort of a 'thunder' sound coming out of the
speakers.  Making the program aware (giving it access to) HW_TIMER
ports (interrupt ports) just crashes the game.  Ihave yet to find a
fix for this.  By the way, I'm running a 386-25 with 2 SCSI drives
attached to an Always IN-2000, and a SBPRO on INT5.
