It took quite a while, but Warped Users is finally back up as a 'Yahoo Group'
now at
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/warpedusers . For a while there, I was getting
paranoid,
and believed they where never going to port it over to 'groups' :)

Hi! i've been creating a hardware compatibility

I have eComStation 1.0 and love it very much.
There still is the problem with sound like in Warp 4,
but by using Crystal cards you will be able to play
.wav files and have some sounds. The midi function
still don't work though.

Did you ever find out why you were having this
problem?. If so, I am glad, but if not I think I know what
is going on.<br><br>1.) OS/2 setup looks at bios
setup values at install time<br>2.) Hd should be setup
for LBA to see 1G and above.<br>3.) Newdasd.exe will
update the IDE and CDROM drivers for OS/2 so the system
can format to the size that you have.<br><br>This all
may be mute now, but did you figure this
out??<br><br>I have been able to install Warp 3 and 4 on drives
of greater than 8GB using the modified install
disks.

I was in the Minneapolis/St.Paul nternational
airport last week and the ATM in the main lobby was being
serviced and booted with an OS/2 Boot Screen Flashing by.
I din't geta good look due to security loading
money so I didn't get much more than that. I thought
that it was cool and then I thought that the securty
guys wern't protecting the money they just didn't want
you to see it was booting OS/2.

Please come to the IRC webbnet.org server and
join the #VOICE channel for some realtime advice and
support. There are many veteran OS/2 users there who are
ready and willing to help. Fixpacks are free but
drivers may be another story... <br>Check out

What I did was, I booted DOS with the Win98 CD
and I used FDisk to delete the partition and then
remake it. Then I started OS/2 Setup and When it asked
if I wanted to format I did. Then it asked what file
system. First time I chose FAT and then it gave me only
425 MB. So I tried again and I chose HFPS and I still
only had 425. I'm gonna download those boot disk files
and try that but I don't have any fixpaks. Don't you
have to pay for those? Also I wanna get drivers for my
hardware but IBM asks for a password. Do I have to pay IBM
for drivers too?

Did you wipe out all the FAT32..???...you
could<br>see it a previous post that OS/2 doesn't work<br>with
FAT32, so you must use PartitionMagic, or<br>even OS/2
FDISK to wipe that FAT32 completely<br>out and then
repartition your hard drive. Above<br>about 2.5Gbytes, you
probably will need HPFS<br>format, but below that, you
should use FAT16..<br>...and...for ordinary home users,
chop that<br>drive up into smaller partitions....IMO
OS/2<br>System install should be on a partition by <br>itself of
100Mbytes or less...

OS/2 won't install onto a FAT32 partition - it
doesn't work with FAT32 at all. To install OS/2 you need
to use something like Partition Magic to reduce the
size of your FAT32 partition and create a new
partition for OS/2.

I have been trying for a long time to get OS/2
Warp 4 on my system. But for some reason it just won't
work. I have an 8GB hard drive which is on one FAT32
partition. When I try setup everything works fine, but right
after I choose Advanced Installation it comes up with
an error saying that OS/2 requires 100 MB and that I
don't have a partition with at least this size and it
takes me to FDISK. When I get to FDISK The only
partition avaliable is of course the only partition I have.
Then I go to choose to make the drive "Installable"
but the only avaliable option is to delete the
partition. I am going crazy trying to get this to work, and
I wouldn't dare go back to Winblows PLEASE REPLY!!!
I am dying for help.
