Hi Peter
it's not fixed yet ...
... and I have tried soooo many times ;-(

No, I had not to restore the ini files and for the case of a
restore
I do a very frequent archive to have mor than only one ;-)

My UniMaint is the previous version 5.10.23 !

Also the here suggested frequence of:

1) UniMaint
2) CheckINI
3) CleanINI

did not solve the problem.

Your idea / suggestion with keeping the INI save files with its
date & time is good !

I will try a download of the newest UniMaint patch and give
another try ...
... will come back and report !

Regards, svobi

Hi Svobi,

First question: How did you fix the blank screen problem? Did
you have
to restore your INI files? Could you reboot okay or did a reboot
also
give you a blank screen?

With UniMaint, are you using version 5.10.25 or are you using an
earlier
version? The earlier versions were buggy when you did more than
one
Repair run without restarting the program -- not all of the
internal
program variables were reinitialized properly for the subsequent
runs.
If you have an earlier version you can do _one_ Repair run but
you then
need to restart the program.

With CheckIni, try making just a few changes and then exit the
program
and either reset the WPS or reboot to verify that your INI files
are
still okay. And always save the CheckIni safety copies of your
OS2*.INI
files (they're named OS2*SV.INI) -- I rename them and add their
date-time stamps ("OS2SV.INI-20020720-0256").

- Peter
