I now have OS/2 Warp 4 on an older system (Pentium 166) and yesterday I archived the system (checked archive box in the desktop notebook archive tab). This is the first time I had done an archive of the system.
Came home after work and started the system, and it hung up with the Archive Status window. The mouse would move, but nothing on the desktop but the archive status window. I had to cntrl-alt-delete to reboot and the same thing happened.

My next move was to start in revovery mode. I selected the 0 option ( original settings) and started up. Now when I start the system I am getting these error messages:

SYS1718 Sustem cannot find the file C:\MPTN\PROTOCOL\IFNDIS.SYS specified
in the DEVICE statement on line 21 of the CONFIG.SYS file. Line 121 is
ignored. Press enter to continue.

SYS1718 System cannot find the file C:\tcpip\bin\vdostcp.vdd specified
in the DEVICE statement on line 140 of the CONFIG.SYS file. Line 140 is ignored. Press enter to continue.

SYS1718 System cannot find the file C:\TCPIP\BIN\VDOSCTL.EXE specified
in the DEVICE statement on line 142 of the CONFIG.SYS file. Line 142 is
ignored. Press enter to continue.

The system then boots and the desktop appears. Colors and icons sometimes appear abnormal and the system is freezing at times.

Any explanations for the cause and recommendations for corrections?

Butch
