|    Warp 4 Error    |
|    14 Mar 16 14:30:26    |
      Howdy ..              I have a major OS/2 Mp4 'normal' complex system which suddenly is refusing to       open each now non-regular desktop object in the 'normal' standard position       that is in a 'standard' position on the desktop. The normal standard size       window for multiple programs one may open. Now, yes, if you right click the       top left hand spot on the blue bar there is a 'scroll' option which I have       never used. However is this crazy error, each object you open even such as a       blank DOS or OS/2 window desired, flips down and to the right in the sort of       scroll format instead of over-laying over the 'top' item at the same point on       the desktop total screen! Something went nuts on this system that started       this error. From decades ago I sort of recall seeing a discussion of this       issue but now at my current intense mind fill for a lot of other things       besides OS/2, I can't recall how to trace and fix this! This issue popped up       when the box strangely locked up and I was wondering if I was going to have to       force re-boot it. There were multiple objects on top of each other as       normal. But the keyboared wouldn't respond and the clock top activity was       jammed as well too. I moved the mouse up to see if the mouse worked. It was       as normal at that time actually touching inside the 'top' window and then when       I touched the left key on the mouse the whole system suddenly was working       again! But this time with the strange auto scroll effect for opening multiple       windows size objects in the little top left down and to the right for each new       opject selected. In this case also the entire desktop is normal for each       formal desktop item selected and where it has been originally set to be when I       click on it.              Thoughts?              Mike Luther as N117C at 1:117/100                     ---        * Origin: BV HUB CLL(979)696-3600 (1:117/100)    |
