- Now this is interesting. I have been having intermittent Trap 0002's since
- April 92, and have swapped out all simms, disabled cache, removed all
- unnecessary cards, disabled shadowing, etc... All to no avail. One thing
- I've noticed, tho, These only occur after running DOS applications, i.e.,
- If I stick to OS/2 native apps, I _never_ get these traps. If i run DOS
- apps, i _sometimes_ get them. Also, the problem does not occur while the
- DOS app is running, usually it occurs after I terminate it, It seems to happen
- when I cause OS/2 to do some video related function, such as opening a
- settings window, or opening a folder.
-
- So, why would DOS VDM's cause this to happen?????
