I'm writing this from my laptop, so I hope I have the address right.

I got my motherboard back form ASUS (the system speaker now works fine).

I installed everything, as far as I know, exactly the way it was two weeks
ago before I sent it back. I don't think I made any changes to OS/2 during
the two weeks I was using the old motherboard.

I can boot OK into my maintenance partition.

I can boot into DOS.

I can even boot into Windows 98.

But when I boot into OS/2 (Warp 4, FP 15), after everything loads, and I
get the desktop background, my fax programs loads (it is in the startup
folder) and the Norton AV starts to load (it is also in the startup
folder), and then I get: Trap 0008 etc. etc.
Internal processing error at etc. etc.

I tried checking all the cables.
I removed all the PCI cards (it didn't matter).
I reversed the two RAM cards (DIMM 1 and DIMM 2).

I can't think of anything else to try.
If I can't get this to work soon, I will have to put the old motherboard
back so I can get some work done.

If anyone has any suggestions for troubleshooting this, please let me
know. If any of the screen information after the trap error is
significant, I will copy it down and post it.

Is it possible to remove programs from the starup folder working from the
maintenance partition? (That way I can see if the Norton program is the
culprit).

Thanks,
Sandy
