- I tried a rough-and-ready install of Windows for Workgroups on the OS/2 2.1
- beta.
-
- It got to the point where it wanted to start Windows in the full-screen DOS
- session.....and crapped out leaving me with a DOS prompt.
-
- So...I deleted everything in the c:\os2\mdos\winos2 and ..\winos2\system
- directories, then re-installed DOS and Win-OS/2 support.
-
- Now my Win-OS/2 3.1 is broken. Looks like a full re-install: my wages for
- mucking around :-)
-
- The main reason for wanting to install Windows for workgroups is so I can play
- Hearts on the LAN with the other guys....no other reason.
-
- Steve :-)
