Yes, I have this problem also.  I am running the ET4000, 800x600x256 driver.
It seems to happen to me when there is a high level of disk I/O, or running
a seamless windows app (though I think that it was doing disk I/O in the
background).

Locks the whole show up.  Naught but the three finger salute saves me.  Wow,
this thing is shaky.

Running a 386-33, Orchid Prodesigner IIs, and an Always IN-2000 controller.

I'm not sure about that...  From personal experience, it sounds like a video
problem...  With my Gateway and a Local Bus ATI GUP card, I had to make sure
that during setup of my video card, I had the monitor set to VGA, rather than
to the specific monitor type.

I'm still experiencing the problem if I try to add com3 or com4 to my system.
(3,3e8,5) (4,2e8,2)...  Video disappears, but the system has actually been
started..

Forgive the obvious stupid question.  With OS/2 being such multitasking,
there would be several useful features found in networks which would be
useful for a stand alone system as well.  Of course I dont know much about
LAN's and such, the only multiuser OS I'm familier with is VMS.  I'm talking
about more abilities with file sharing, especially amongst files between
several tasks.  More so if it makes programs not normally friendly for file
access work more reliably in a shared environment.

While this is true for the hardware, it still seems that 32-bit disk interface
software could still increase performance.  I'm not very familier with the 
two version file system in OS/2, other than that HPFS is very quick, and the
FAT version is a lot faster than in DOS systems.  it seems that for some things
HPFS is slower than a FAT system.  If it were to go 32 bit, wouldn't the HPFS
be faster all the time?  

This is just idle thinking, and is probably wrong, I just don't understand some
of these things, and I'm trying to learn.

I'm glad to hear about IRQ7 and the printer.  I dont know what hard drives
use IRQ5, but I am able to use IRQ5, IRQ2(/9), IRQ4 and IRQ3 for com ports,
and IRQ7 or printers.

Mind you I'm still getting the bugs out of all this, but it is slowly coming

Do you have any more info about IRQ5?

Shouldn't a COMDEX exhibitor take precautions against this sort of thing?
While C2 security might be overkill, something simple seems necessary.

I'd sure love some simple security that would keep people from deleting
files like config.sys.  I thought that something like that was available

Hi,

in my new project I need to have both protocols, IPX/SPX and TCP/IP, on one
OS/2 machine with one network adapter (16-bit SMC). At the moment I am
running OS/2 1.32. I will update to OS/2 2.1x later. The TCP/IP product I
am using is IBM TCP/IP 1.21 for OS/2 1.32 and later.

IPX/SPX is needed to connect to a Netware 3.1 server for both file access
and access to an Oracle DBMS running on the Netware server.

TCP/IP will be used for an RPC-based application and to import/export
NFS file systems.

I heard about ODI drivers for OS/2. Is that what I need or are there any
better multi-protocol solutions ?

The same problem will arise for DOS/Windows clients at a later stage of the
project. Is there a similar solution ?


Thanks for any info, Ernst.

 I have procomm/Windows working at 9600. Downloads up to 800CPS not problem.

I have installed the OS/2 2.1 beta on my system. As it was 29 floppies, and i
already had MMPM/2, I didn't bother getting the Multi-media disks from IBM. 
 
When I install MMPM/2 (with no devices), then install the SoundBlaster device
(from floppy) using MINSTALL.EXE, everything goes normally. It asks me which
driver i want (I have a bog-standard soundblaster 2.0), i chose it, and
shutdown and re-start as instructed. 
 
Just after the OS/2 logo, my system TRAP 0000d's in the AUDIO1$ module. I have
to boot from a floppy, run a chkdsk and restore the old config.sys in order to
bring up my system. 
 
It isn't an IRQ conflict as the SB works just fine in DOS sessions. It is
definitely the software.
 
I have the SBMMPM/2 file that came out originally.....is there a later version
I can try?
 
I'm not desparate - yet - but I did like playing soundfiles for my daughter

Hi.

I have the same problem with my Trident 9000 card (with 512K
memory). So far I've heard of no one being able to get the 32 bit
drivers to work with a TVGA 9000 card. Only the 8900 seems to be
supported. 

My experience here is only with the tri32new.exe, not the
trident.update.exe. Anyone else had any success with a TVGA 9000?

Super VGA display for OS/2 with Diamond SpeedStar Plus and CrystalScan 1024
NI monitor.  This setup was sold by Gateway about a year ago, with their
486/33C computers.  The video card is NOT the Stealth, HighColor, or "24"
version; just the plain "Plus" with 1 Mb memory.
 
According to the IBM documentation that came with the OS/2 Service Pak, the
SVGA drivers in that Pak can support the SpeedStar card with some special
hacking of the STARTUP.CMD file invoking VMODE but I couldn't make it work
for my system.
 
Did anybody here have more luck with it?
 
Thanks,
Joe Pannon
