Hi,
My name is Terry and I live in the UK. I am at my wits end as OS/2 is not my
first language, so to speak (I'm an MS bloatware junkie!)
The problem I have is that the system fails to boot (bear in mind that this
is an old 486/33) and I think it may have been due to someone leaving an
MS-DOS floppy in the drive, then resetting the PC (would this be a likely
scenario?)
Aside from the re-installation of Warp 3, is it likely that only a single
file has been corrupted by this action, and repair of such could bring the
system back?
I read about os2.ini and os2sys.ini - could these be likely candidates?
I look forward to reply. Thank you for your time.
Sincerely,
Terry Harris.
Plymouth, UK.
