Look in \OS2\INSTALL. A file name might show up in the logs.

You are doing th right thing. Unfortunately, it's been a long time since
installed Warp3 and I don't recall which specific the IBM2* files the
installer considers required, but I'm pretty some are.

I'd recommend putting the IBM2* driver back on and deleting the .ADD
drivers for the SCSI and sound cards you don't have. This should free up
more than enough space to hold the drivers you need to replace. This is
the procedure IBM recommends and I suspect you will have more success with
this method.

HTH,

Steven
