OK -- I remmed out all of them except the ones shown in the Warp
config.sys.

The only IRQ shown is:

NVidia NForce2 --- irq 5.

It shows the same with both operating systems.

I downloaded the program, but I haven't figured out yet how it will help
me.

I added the /V to Genm32.os2 and it worked fine (again both operating
systems).

So far none of these changes has allowed for internet access when I boot
eCS. Is there any other way to check for irq conflict?

Should I try formatting the partition and reinstalling eCS from scratch?

Should I install a LAN card and disable the onboard LAN (which would be a
shame as it works fine with OS/2 Warp).

Thanks,
Sandy
