      In a message dated 07-01-15, Roger Nelson said to Holger Granholm:              Howdy Roger,              RN> I have Warp 4 here (I forget the release number) and it won't       RN> install. I even sent the machine to a trusted friend who uses OS/2       RN> and it wouldn't install for him, either. I think it's a hardware       RN> problem .......              Maybe it is but I did install my original Warp 4 plus FixPak 12 last       year on another machine and it worked right away. Admittedly it wasn't       an up-to-date machine but I don't recall what processor it ran.               HG> Also, if you want to use the built-in OS/2 Boot Manager you will              RN> I know all of the above, Holger. I used OS/2 since the December       RN> 1992 beta was released to the public. I then bought Warp 3 after I       RN> attended an IBM seminar and also LotusSuite for OS/2 at the same       RN> time.              You've walked the same path except that I continued upgrading but Warp 4       and FP12 has so far been the end station.              RN> I still think I need older hardware. I even tried eCS, but       RN> found it lacking in some areas and too pricey for me, so Warp 4 sits       RN> on the self along with Warp 3. My OS/2 2.1 and 2.11 diskettes are       RN> long gone after the storm of 2005.              Since the version I'm running what I want from it I have not considered       eCS because I too find it too pricey but it's the easiest way to install       OS/2 on newer hardware.              Cheers,              Holger              ___        * MR/2 2.30 * I can keep a secret.
