You too?  Right now, the only Windows app I really use is Word, and
not much of that, either.  As soon as MS gets Word 2.0 for OS/2 out
(please let it be soon), I'll probably trash my WINOS2 system as well.
Well, I may keep it around for WinGif and minesweeper...

	Well, while d/ling, a friend who uses an USRobotics 14.4 HST gets
barely more than 1/2 the transfer rate (ie 900-1000cps vs 1700cps) when
in Windows 3.1 as opposed to not in Windows. There is no question that 
OS/2 multitasks better. I am about to go back to Windows due to the way
OS/2 runs things. For instance, if I d/l something from a bbs & it doesn't
immediately work, I must wonder: does it work at all? Should I simply sit
here for 3.2 hours tweaking OS/2 to try to get it to run? This has happened
to me too often. It seems that IBM didn't think a few things out very well.
Why does this product teach you to use a mouse & at the same time make you
change the DPMI settings? It is a worthy product but a few things need to change
before it even has a shot at competing w/Windows...It saddens me to say this for
Windows is not what it should be, but it is the truth...

Boot with the install disk and switch to disk 1 when instructed to.  Hit
escape when you are given that option to get to a command prompt (or if
you have a boot disk made with makeboot.cmd, just boot with that).  Then
simply switch to your hard disk, cd to the directory where you keep
pmfract, and delete it.

This is very likely the date when IBM will cease support on OS/2 *v2*. Version
2.x or 3.x or 4.x will likely be out long before then and you will need to
upgrade in order to get new fixes/enhancements. 
 
For example......does Microsoft still write bug fixes for MS DOS 3.3?

It might be more helpful to see what the windows groups looked 
like within the same time frame of the 3.0 release.

I recall that most of the postings were about problems and
incompatibilities, and few people were able to afford the
SDK to do development.  (Borland sure changed that with a
little time).  

Once new software is released that is 'OS/2' aware (dos and
windows programs) and there are more native OS/2 programs,
I'd expect the same trends in these groups... However there
will always be some chatter about how to get the latest
CSD by ftp etc. that don't have any microsoft equivalent.

I'm trying to use Fastback 2.01 with OS/2 and I can't get it install.
It consistently fails the low speed DMA test.  I have a DOS machine
which I want to run OS/2 on and I wanted to be able to back everything
up using Fastback, install OS/2 and HPFS and then restore using
Fastback.  Does anyone have any suggestions on how to accomplish
this?  Any ideas on other ways to migrate from a FAT based DOS system
to an HPFS based OS/2 system in a relatively disk/time efficient
manner?

Reply-To: mrb@arrc.salf.ac.uk (Mark Burgin)
Organization: Advanced Robotics Research Centre, Salford, UK.

I have found a new way to crash my system when using OS2.  If I try to open 
the A: drive folder (a 3.5 inch drive on my system) immediately after booting
and the disk in the drive is 720K and write-protected, then after a bit of 
disk activity from the floppy and the hard disk, the system goes dead although 
the mouse pointer still moves.  Pulse stops and nothing short of C-A-D seems 
to have any effect.  If the disk in the drive is 1.44Mbyte or is not write-
protected I don't see this problem and if I access the drive B: folder 
(a 1.2Mbyte drive) first then all is well.  I haven't been able to tie down
exactly what causes the problem to go away, but if I run an application or 
two from my C: drive first, then I don't seem to get a problem either.

Has anyone else experienced this behaviour.  Not a very serious bug, perhaps,
as it only happens under very strict circumstances, but I am curious to know 
if there is anything different about my setup that is causing the problem.

Well, DOS can read an HPFS partition as raw sectors.  You can use
Norton Utilities to read them (HPFS shows up as a "Non-DOS"
partition).

So you should be able to write an application to extract files from
HPFS and copy them to a FAT volume.  Assuming there is a byte-level
description of the HPFS data structures available.  You could have a
DOS app do all the direct-sector reads to find files and read them.

To install HPFS seamlessly in real DOS, though, would probably be
prohibitive.  I'd expect the driver to use all your real-mode memory
for itself, leaving nothing for applications.

I just went through this myself and ended up on the SCSI side of the fence.
The primary reason is the capability of adding additional devices to
the same adapter (CD-ROM, tape, and scanner).  I figure my box is going
to be full enough without trying to keep two device interface cards in
there.  With SCSI there is always the capability for device<->device 
transfers that never leave the SCSI bus - i.e., they do not get slowed down
by the system bus.  

About the only thing I would do different would be to buy a bigger 1st 
hard drive.  I opted for 213 Mb - really should have gone for the 340!
Oh, if you decide SCSI and you get an Adaptec board, be sure to get the
'K' (kit) version if you are serious about adding other devices in
the future.  The kit has the driver management software and it is 
cheaper to buy it with the board than to buy it later on.

Yes UUPC has been ported, and also compress, snews (a news reader) and 
unbatch.

I installed all of these and set up a mail/news feed, and everything seemed
to work fine, but...

When I tried going to a full feed (1500 news groups in my case), OS/2 2.0
couldn't handle the work load.

Strangest thing.  The news feed, at 2400 baud, took about 4 hours, and nine
times out of ten my PS/2 Mod 70 w/ 16Mg ram would get a Trap D in the
OEMHLP$ Device Driver.

This in turn totally screwed up the news feed, and unbatching the articles
became a nightmare.

Has anyone else seen this trap D in OEMHLP$?

Interesting.  I have successfully installed os/2 on my system that has a
Mylex 386-33 system board with the Phoenix 1.10.10 BIOS dated 1989.  However,
