GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS __________________________________ DESKTOP CONSIDERATIONS ______________________ INI FILES o Your system INI files might be read-only. As a result, the system will not update the .INI files. When this happens, the position of the icons will not be saved. To resolve this problem go to the directory where your system INI files are located C:\OS2 (default). Then, type the following: ATTRIB -r *.ini Shut down your system, and when you restart your system the INI files are updated. o When OS/2 for Windows ServicePak is installed as a SVGA system in 1024x768 resolution, and you dual boot to DOS in low resolution, the fonts are too large for the display. To correct this problem do the following to the WIN.INI file located in the OS2\MDOS\WINOS2 directory. Change the high resolution font statement courF.fon, serifF.fon, smallF.fon, sserifF.fon, and symbolF.fon to low resolution fonts. NOTE: When you dual boot back to OS/2 for Windows ServicePak, you need to return the resolution statement back to the original high resolution fonts. Therefore, you must change the font statement to courE.fon, serifE.fon, smallE.fon, sserifE.fon, and symbolE.fon respectively. Page 2 RUNNING CHKDSK If you are running CHKDSK from the command line without the /F parameter on an HPFS partition which also contains your SWAPPER.DAT file, you may receive a SYS0552 error message. This message can be ignored. If you are using CHKDSK from the pop-up menu of a drive icon, you may receive a WARNING message stating "The disk is in use or locked by another process." If this occurs, CHKDSK will not let you display the graphical representation of disk usage. Page 3 VIDEO o If you experience video corruption for example, stacked or missing icons: - Display the desktop pop-up menu (click mouse button 2 on the OS/2 desktop background). - Select Refresh to redraw the desktop. - If the screen goes blank, press Alt+Esc to switch between the applications to force repainting of the screen. o When you use the Windows Version 3.1 Control Panel the changes to the 386 Enhanced mode settings are ignored and you might receive an error message. Disregard the error message. o Do not run the Windows Setup program. It is recommended that you do not change your video configuration for Windows. Page 4 SYSTEM SHUT DOWN During a system shutdown, there might be times when the "Shutdown is completed" message is not displayed. If this happens, wait 30 seconds until all disk activity is complete, then press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart your system.

To run OS/2 for Windows ServicePak in these models, change the statement "BASEDEV=IBM1S506.ADD" in CONFIG.SYS to the following: BASEDEV=IBMINT13.I13 2. For OS/2 for Windows ServicePak APM, access the IBM BBS and download the following 3 files: o TGSFX.COM (located in file area 4) o RFL40SXA.TG0 (located in file area 27) o L40PWR.ZIP (located in file area 37) Execute TGSFX.COM to install the TELEGET.EXE program. Then do the following: Page 28 a. Create a new L40SX reference diskette by using TELEGET.EXE to unpack RFL40SXA.TG0 onto a 1.44MB formatted diskette. b. Use PKUNZIP to unzip the L40PWR.ZIP to obtain new IDLE.EXE and PWRMGMT.SYS files. c. Replace the IDLE.EXE and PWRMGMT.SYS files on the newly created L40SX reference diskette with the new IDLE.EXE and PWRMGMT.SYS files obtained from the previous step. d. Restart L40SX with the resulting reference diskette in A drive and configure with APM. e. Verify the APM configuration by selecting VIEW CONFIGURATION from the installation menu. f. Exit the configuration. g. Power off the computer and restart OS/2. 3. Contact the manufacturer for newer versions of their BIOS that have APM support. 4. These models require the Toshiba APM driver (OS2RES.EXE) available from the Toshiba BBS (714-837-4408). This Toshiba driver will provide partial power management capabilities under OS/2 for Windows ServicePak. 5. While running OS/2, you can use the special power-saving keys but the additional capability of OS/2 protect-mode APM is not supported. Page 29 INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS ORGANIZATION (ISO) FONTS ________________________________________________ OS/2 for Windows ServicePak uses a system proportional font that is designed to meet the International Standards Organization (ISO) 9241 standard and the German DIN 66234 standard when using ISO compliant hardware. ISO compliant fonts cause some text strings to be clipped. If you do not want to use ISO compliant fonts, modify the OS2.INI file to install fonts that are not ISO compliant. Font changes made in the OS2.INI file are global across all applications. If you have REXX installed, you can type the following information into a CMD file and use it to change the font. Page 30 /* */ call RxFuncAdd "SysIni", "RexxUtil", "SysIni" AppName = "PM_SystemFonts" KeyName = "DefaultFont" FontName = "10.System Proportional Non-ISO" call SysIni "USER", AppName, KeyName, FontName||"0"x exit After the file has been run, shutdown and restart the system. Page 31 SECTION 2. DUAL BOOT OR BOOT MANAGER _____________________________________ INFORMATION ___________ USING DUAL BOOT OR BOOT MANAGER _______________________________ o If you use the Dual Boot or Boot Manager feature to switch to DOS, be aware of the following restrictions on installing and running programs under DOS: - If you install a Windows application that updates the AUTOEXEC.BAT or the CONFIG.SYS file, you must migrate the application after you switch back to the OS/2 operating system, and update the OS/2 versions of AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS to have similar statements as in the Windows** version of these files. Page 32 o Added support for Boot Manager exists on a disk other than Disk 1. The ability to delete and re-install the Boot Manager requires that you exit FDISK after you delete the Boot Manager and re-start FDISK to install Boot Manager again. This is true even if you are going to place it in the same partition. This means you would have to re-enter the partition names. Page 33 SECTION 3. DISPLAY INFORMATION _______________________________ NEW SETVGA PROCEDURE ____________________ Use the following procedure instead of the SETVGA command to return to VGA mode. NOTE: If your display is out of sync, start OS/2 using the OS/2 Installation Diskette, insert Diskette 1 when prompted, then press Esc to access a command prompt. Follow the instructions below to reset your display mode. o If you installed OS/2 from diskettes: 1. Be sure RSPDSPI.EXE is in the \OS2\INSTALL directory. If it is, go to step 2. If it is not, insert Diskette 8 and unpack RSPDSPI.EXE with the following command: C:\OS2\UNPACK A:\INSTAID C: /N:RSPDSPI.EXE where: A: is the drive containing Diskette 8 C: is the drive where OS/2 2.1 is installed 2. Type C:; then press Enter 3. Type CD C:\OS2\INSTALL; then press Enter 4. Type RSPDSPI /PK:VGA /SK:NONE /S:A:\ /T:\; then press Enter /T:\ where C: is the drive where OS/2 2.1 is installed /S:A: where A: is the diskette drive you use to install OS/2 Page 34 o If you installed OS/2 from CD-ROM or a LAN: 1. Be sure RSPDSPI.EXE is in the \OS2\INSTALL directory. If it is, go to step 2. If it is not, unpack RSPDSPI.EXE with the following command: C:\OS2\UNPACK E:\DISK_8\INSTAID C: /N:RSPDSPI.EXE where: C: is the drive where OS/2 2.1 is installed E: is the CD-ROM or LAN drive 2. Type C:; then press Enter 3. Type CD C:\OS2\INSTALL; then press Enter 4. Type RSPDSPI /PK:VGA /SK:NONE /S:E:\OS2SE21\ /T:\; then press Enter /T:\ where C: is the drive where OS/2 2.1 is installed /S:E: where E: is the CD-ROM or LAN drive Page 35 SVGA INFORMATION o The Western Digital** 90C31 SVGA chipset will have video problems when Windows 3.1 applications are run. o If you are using a ZEOS** system with Speedstar** VGA, you must run the VMODE utility supplied with the system to configure the display during the display driver installation. o Zenith Data Systems** with Headland HT208 do not support high resolution modes even though you can successfully set these modes and install high resolution drivers. If a high resolution mode is used, a white half-screen will be displayed. To correct this problem, use Selective Install to install VGA. o If you have a Sigma Legend** display adapter you might experience minor video corruption on the desktop when you switch between the desktop and DOS if they are running in different modes. This can be corrected by using the DOS utility that is packaged with this display adapter to set the DOS session to the same mode as the desktop. Page 36 XGA CONSIDERATIONS __________________ o If you are using a dual display system with XGA as the primary display and VGA as the secondary display, you might see some minor damage when the XGA display is set to a resolution with 65536 colors. This damage will be on the display that does not have focus and will not interfere with the operation of the system. o On dual display configurations with XGA-2 as the primary display and VGA as the secondary display, the DOS full-screen session might be corrupted if a Windows** application is started in a window session. To recover from this situation, shutdown and restart the system. Page 37 o If you are using Dual Boot with an XGA-2 adapter, you must modify the CONFIG.DOS file: 1. Edit the \OS2\SYSTEM\CONFIG.DOS file. 2. Locate the line DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE RAM 2048 X=nnnn-nnnn 3. Change nnnn-nnnn to C000-CFFF. 4. Save and exit the file. o On IBM P75 systems, there might be some corruption on the screen whenever several icons are selected and moved together. This corruption can be eliminated by clicking mouse button 2 to bring up the pop-up menu; then selecting Sort. o An IBM P75 system with an external monitor attached might only have the 640x480x16 resolution selection on the System Settings Screen page. If the external monitor is capable of displaying higher resolutions, use the P75 reference diskette to disable the built-in plasma display. o If you are using an XGA system, the hash lines around the icons of open applications might change color unexpectedly. This does not interfere with the operation of the system. o If you are using an XGA system, extra lines might appear on the face of the OS/2 System Clock between the quarter (:15) and half (:30) hour. These lines do not interfere with the operation of the clock. o When running VGA DOS graphics applications on the OS/2 desktop without VGA support, your desktop might be damaged. Page 38 8514 CONSIDERATIONS ___________________ o If you are using the 1MB version of an ATI** Graphics Ultra** Pro adapter, the VGA memory must be set to SHARED to work properly with the OS/2 8514 display driver. This might cause some DOS applications running in the background to corrupt the desktop. To correct this problem, you must upgrade to the 2MB version of the Graphics Ultra Pro and set the VGA memory to 256K or greater. NOTE: In the "OS/2 Installation Guide", it states that the ATI Graphics Ultra Pro must be configured to IBM DEFAULT for the 640x480 display type. This setting might be referred to as 60Hz rather than IBM DEFAULT. o If you are using a system with an 8514 adapter with Windows applications running in a WIN-OS/2 window session in separate VDMs, video corruption might occur in bitmaps when clipping between applications. o After you start a WIN-OS/2 window session, 256 color bitmaps might become discolored due to the sharing of the 256 color palette. This should not affect the running of the applications. o Selecting windows in Mathematica might not bring focus to the proper window. Page 39 DISPLAY ADAPTERS (IMAGE, SVGA, XGA, 8514) _________________________________________ o The OS/2 operating system will experience video problems similar to those observed in a DOS environment. These problems are due to the failure of a BIOS video mode set. An example of this problem is the video image on an ALR** Modular PS with a Flexview** 2x SVGA display fails to occupy the entire screen in 1024 x 768 mode. Page 40 o If you are using an LCD display and have difficulty locating the mouse pointer on the screen, you can increase the size of the pointer if you are using 640x480 resolution. To change the size of the pointer (if you have REXX installed): 1. Use an editor to create a file called LARGE.CMD. 2. Add the following information to the file. /* LARGE.CMD Set VGA pointers to large */ /* (c) Copyright IBM Corp. 1992, All rights reserved */ call RxFuncAdd "SysIni", "RexxUtil", "SysIni" call SysIni "USER", "PM_IBMVGA", "CURSOR_SIZE", "1" say Result exit 3. Save and exit the file. 4. At an OS/2 command prompt, type "LARGE" and press Enter. Page 41 This program will increase the size of the cursor. To force a standard size pointer, replace the "1" in the program with a "2". To let the system select the size of the pointer, replace the "1" in the program with a "0". o Users of the NCR** Safari notebook, SSL/25, should modify the following information in the CONFIG.SYS file on their startup drive to allow video register shadowing to be processed correctly in OS/2 for Windows ServicePak. DEVICE=C:\OS2\MDOS\VVGA.SYS to DEVICE=C:\OS2\MDOS\VSVGA.SYS o Systems with Image Adapters running in dual-display modes will lose DOS window support after a DOS full-screen or OS/2 full-screen session has been invoked. The system must be restarted to reinstate the DOS window environment. The problem can be avoided by turning off the dual display mode under the Image Adapter setup. Page 42 SECTION 4. S3 FUNCTIONAL RESTRICTIONS ______________________________________ AFTER DARK __________ After Dark** for Windows** images that move from left to right do not perform properly at 640x480x16M resolution. VENTURA PUBLISHER _________________ To avoid a General Protection fault while loading Ventura Publisher** for Windows be sure it is in one of the 256 color resolutions. LOTUS 1-2-3 ___________ To avoid a trap in Lotus** 1-2-3** for OS/2 do not attempt to run the program at 16.7 million colors. Page 43 WORDPERFECT ___________ WordPerfect** 5.1 and 5.2 for Windows produce a general protection fault when the "Print Preview" option is selected while using 800x600x64K or 600x480x16 million color mode. MMPM/2 ______ Users of the software motion video feature of MMPM/2 should expect satisfactory results in 256-color modes. However, in 64K-color modes, users of the feature will experience unusual MMPMCS results. An OS/2 2.1 pervasive fix package is now available electronically. The software motion video feature is not supported in 16 million color modes. In addition, the software motion video feature will take advantage of a 1MB aperture on video adapters and systems where it is available to improve the performance of video playback in 64K-color modes. For those systems with nonstandard locations, the actual physical address of the aperture must be provided in the following CONFIG.SYS statement: SET VIDEO_APERTURE=xxxh where "xxx" is a hexadecimal value in units of 1MB, representing the actual physical address to map to the aperture. For example, the IBM PS/ValuePoint Systems must have the statement: SET VIDEO_APERTURE=400h to use a physical address at 1GB. Page 44 NOTE: If you are using the 256 color mode, and your desktop appears to be darker than other color modes, you must edit the SVGADATA.PMI file located in the \OS2 directory. Change the following statement from: HI-COLOR DAC by .... to: HI-COLOR DAC by unknown To make the changes effective you must restart your system. Page 45 SECTION 5. WINDOWS APPLICATION INFORMATION ___________________________________________ WINDOWS AND WIN-OS/2 APPLICATION COMPATIBILITY ______________________________________________ o The original WIN-OS/2* color scheme was added to the list of available color schemes in the WIN-OS/2 color panel. If you change color schemes and would like to return to the original color scheme, select WIN-OS/2 Original. o The performance of Windows** programs that use floating point operations can be improved by changing the WIN-OS/2 setting, WIN_RUN_MODE, to Enhanced Compatibility. For more information about WIN-OS/2 settings, refer to the Master Help Index. o Windows scanning programs should be run in a WIN-OS/2 full-screen session to avoid video corruption. o To ensure the integrity of 16-color bit maps on SVGA, XGA, and 8514 systems, run Microsoft Paint Brush** in a WIN-OS/2 full-screen session. Page 46 o Some messages encountered in a WIN-OS/2 window session request that you select either Ignore or Close, however the only options are Ignore and OK. Select OK instead of Close. o If you are using a WIN-OS/2 window or full-screen session, an OS/2 Presentation Manager* session, and a DOS full-screen session, Alt+Esc might not sequence through all of the windows correctly. Alt+Esc might switch to the WIN-OS/2 session every other time or the DOS full-screen session might never be displayed. To avoid this problem, press Ctrl+Esc or press mouse buttons 1 and 2 at the same time to display the Window List then select the desired session. o If you are in a full-screen WIN-OS/2 session and you encounter a problem where transparent desktop icons appear over open windows, minimize or maximize the window to force repainting. o The Copy Disk option for the WIN-OS/2 File Manager does not prompt for a target diskette. Use the DISKCOPY command in either a DOS or OS/2 command prompt session instead. Page 47 o During installation of the Windows 3.1 SDK, a message is displayed stating that the installation program cannot find KRNL286.EXE or KRNL386.EXE. Ignore the message and continue installation. The SDK will function normally. o If you are using the Winsleuth Gold hardware diagnostics program: - Do not run Chip test (RAM test program). Chip test attempts to lock hardware interrupts. OS/2 for Windows ServicePak does not allow programs to lock hardware interrupts. - When the video mode hardware test switches from character to graphics mode, a "suspended" message might appear. If the message appears, Select Full-screen from the Sessions System menu. Testing will resume.

Page 54 SECTION 6. DOS APPLICATION INFORMATION _______________________________________ DOS APPLICATION COMPATIBILITY _____________________________ o Use OS/2 system utilities. DOS system utilities might not recognize the extended attributes associated with a file. o OS/2 provides integral disk caching and memory optimization functions. Use of the equivalent functions that are provided with MS-DOS** 6.0 is not necessary and may produce errors. o To display the DOS bar in a DOS full-screen or window session, add $i to the PROMPT statement in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file. For example, type: PROMPT $i$p$g Save the modified AUTOEXEC.BAT file. Shut down your system, then restart your system by pressing and holding Ctrl + Alt keys; then press Del. Page 55 o If your application uses its own DOS Protect Mode Interface (DPMI), set the DPMI_DOS_API DOS setting to ENABLED. Example applications include: - Microsoft C/C++ 7.0 Linker - Borland** C - C++** - Turbo** C - Paradox** NOTE: If you are using Microsoft C/C++ 7.0 Linker, configure the program object's DOS_SETTINGs with DPMI_DOS_API=ENABLED. Also, modify the AUTOEXEC.BAT being used for the session so that the Microsoft \C700\BIN directory is searched first. For example: PATH X:\C700\BIN;\C:\OS2;C:\OS2\MDOS;C:\OS2\MDOS\WINOS2;C:\; o It is not necessary to run SHARE.EXE in a DOS session. OS/2's DOS emulation provides SHARE.EXE compatible to that which comes with DOS versions 5.x and 6.x.

Make a program object for the SatisFAXtion program. 6. 6. Change the value of the DOS_AUTOEXEC setting for the object to FAX.BAT. 7. Save and exit the Settings notebook. Page 59 SECTION 7. OS/2 APPLICATION INFORMATION ________________________________________ OS/2 APPLICATION COMPATIBILITY ______________________________ Closing OS/2 applications that use the hardware palette (typically picture viewers or sample graphic applications) occasionally causes a repaint problem on the desktop. If the windows do not repaint correctly, a refresh will restore the desktop, but any windows that are opened or moved will still have the problem. Restarting the system is the only way to completely correct this problem. Page 60 o If you are using Lotus 123G for OS/2 or Lotus Freelance Graphics for OS/2, you might experience problems using large bit maps. To correct this problem, you need to run the following utility prior to using these products with OS/2 for Windows ServicePak. 1. Change to the appropriate Lotus directory that contains the application. For example, type: CD \123G 2. Backup the LD2CORE.DLL file. For example, type: COPY LD2CORE.DLL LD2CORE.BAK 3. Run the update program. Type: LD2FIX The Lotus program is now updated. You need to shutdown and restart your system for these changes to take effect. o Do not run an OS/2 screen saver and a Windows screen saver, or multiple Windows screen savers at the same time. Page 61 OS/2 APPLICATION NOTES: o Communication Manager/2 When used with Host Graphics support (HGINST) you might experience shutdown problems. Ensure that the following Graphical Data Display Manager (GDDM) fixes have been applied to the host system: UN36882 - MVS UN38883 - VM/SP UN38884 - VM/XA SP UN38885 - DOS/VSE o CorelDRAW 2.5 At the end of CorelDRAW 2.5 installation, you might experience problems, after selecting one of the View README options. The View README options are "Yes" and "No". If you select Yes, CorelDRAW will not run. Icons will be generated. You must restart your system and recreate each icon, using the Migrate Applications program. If you select No, CorelDRAW will not run. A folder appears without icons. You must restart your system and create each icon, using the Migrate Applications program. For information on the Migrate Applications program, refer to the "OS/2 2.1 Using the Operating System" book. Page 62 o Netview DM/2 (NVDM/2) If you are using the CID method of installation, you will need an updated version of the LAPSCID.DLL file. This file is available as LAPDLL.ZIP on the CompuServe OS2SUPPORT forum, Lib #17 and the OS2BBS on TALKLINK. o RUMBA/400 for OS/2 If you use RUMBA/400 for OS/2, you might have a more recent version of the MIRRORS.DLL file, located in the \OS2\DLL directory. The file currently shipped with OS/2 for Windows ServicePak is from Micrografix ToolKit Ver. 3.01, ship level A51 dated 11/16/93. Before you begin installing this version of the operating system, you must backup your current MIRRORS.DLL file. After you install this version of the operating system, you can replace the OS/2 for Window ServicePak level of MIRRORS.DLL with the backed up copy you previously created. Page 63 o WordPerfect** 5.2 If this application is installed on your system and you reinstall OS/2, do the following: 1.

Page 67 SECTION 9. NETWORK INFORMATION _______________________________ NETWARE CONSIDERATIONS ______________________ o Some systems could experience problems using WIN-OS/2 with version 2.0 of the Novell Netware Requester on this version of the operating system. To correct the problems, it is necessary to upgrade to Novell Netware Requester for OS/2 for Windows ServicePak. o The Workplace Shell login is not compatible with Novell** NetWare** 4.0 Directory Services and should be disabled unless you are using the NetWare 4.0 Bindery Compatibility mode. To disable the login: 1. Edit the CONFIG.SYS file. 2. Remove the CONNECTIONS option from SET AUTOSTART. 3. Save and exit the CONFIG.SYS file. 4. Restart the system to activate the changes. Page 68 o If you are using the NetWare Requester version 2.01, (ships with NetWare 4.0) but have no NetWare 4.0 servers, you can increase the speed of the login process by turning the Directory Services off. To turn the services off: 1. Edit NET.CFG file in the root directory of the boot drive. 2. Add Directory Services Off to the file. 3. Save and exit the file. Page 69 o Novell** NetWare Requester 2.0 and 2.01 programs NMPIPE.SYS, NPSERVER.SYS, and NPDAEMON.EXE require the following information to be added to the OS2VER file. To add this information to the file: 1. At an OS/2 command prompt, type: ATTRIB -h -r -s OS2VER 2. Edit the OS2VER file in the root directory of the boot drive. 3. Type the following information in the file: 20=NMPIPE.SYS 20=NPSERVER.SYS 20=NPDAEMON.EXE 4. Save and exit the file. 5. Type: ATTRIB +h +r +s OS2VER o If you are using FFST/2 (for example, if you enable the FFST/2 feature when installing Communications Manager/2 or Data Base Manager/2), type, REM next to the "RUN=...\EPW.EXE" statement in your CONFIG.SYS file. To utilize FFST/2 technology, add a "DETACH EPW.EXE" as the first statement in your STARTUP.CMD file. o NetWare Client for OS/2 uses a default frame type of 802.2 on Ethernet networks. This is a change from the previous default frame type of 802.3. Some routers do not support Ethernet 802.2 frame types. If you are having difficulty connecting to your server, add 802.2 Ethernet frame support at the server, and ensure your router has the latest revision of software. Page 70 o When using NetWare Client version 2.10 for OS/2, it is important to load NETX.EXE into both global and private DOS sessions. The NetWare Client installation program can modify AUTOEXEC.BAT and any other DOS_AUTOEXEC files you specify. You must also change the DOS_LASTDRIVE setting for each DOS session to the last local drive on your system. o The Virtual Loadable Module (VLM) version of the NetWare DOS Client kit can be run in a DOS 5 or 6 VMB session under OS/2 in either global or private mode. Use DOSVIPX to allow sharing of the network adapter. This allows limited access to NetWare 4.0x Directory Services in a DOS VMB session. o The Novell file system fails to recognize LPT4 through LPT9 print devices and creates a disk full file instead. Copy or pipe to \DEV\LPTx might function as a workaround or drag and drop using the Workplace Shell. o Pressing Ctrl-C in a NetWare utility, running in a DOS session, might cause a SYS3175 error and the session to fail. The application will abort properly. If you still require a session start a new one. o Using a wildcard with the ATTRIB command can produce erratic results. Use NDIR or FLAG instead. o WIN-OS/2 File Manager and some other programs might show inaccurate drive information when running in a private NetWare session. Drives that are mapped in global or OS/2 sessions might appear as local drives. You can remap these drives to other volumes or directories without affecting the global session mappings. Page 71 UPGRADING TO NETWARE REQUESTER FOR OS/2 Install NetWare** Requester for OS/2 2.1 following the manufacturer's directions. This product provides network support for DOS, OS/2, and Windows Version 3.1. To make the Windows program aware of the network: 1. Select the Windows Setup object located in the Main folder. 2.

Vendor CD-ROM Drive Model --------------------------------- IBM Enhanced CD-ROM II NEC MultiSpin 3Xe NEC MultiSpin 3Xi NEC MultiSpin 3Xp Philips LMS CM215 Texel DM-3028 Texel DM-5028 Page 16 OBTAINING ADDITIONAL CD-ROM SUPPORT If, after reviewing the list in "OS/2 2.1 Using the Operating System", you find that your CD-ROM drive or SCSI adapter is not supported within the OS/2 product, you can contact the manufacturer and obtain an OS/2 Adapter Device Driver (.ADD) file. After you receive the .ADD file, follow the instructions in the "Before You Begin" section of the "OS/2 2.1 Installation Guide" to add this file to Diskette 1. As an alternative, you can create installation diskettes from the diskette images that are on the OS/2 CD, if you have DOS support for your CD-ROM drive. If support for your CD-ROM was not properly installed during initial installation of OS/2 for Windows ServicePak, then you will need to use the Selective Install program located in the System Setup folder to reinstall the CD-ROM support appropriate for your CD-ROM. Page 17 INSTALLING WITH CID AND SEMAINT _______________________________ If you use SEMAINT to create maintenance systems to apply the ServicePak, statements are added to the CONFIG.SYS file created by SEMAINT. These statements enable swapping to the target drive and directory of the maintenance system. This path is determined by the /T: parameter that SEMAINT uses when it is started. Swapping is enabled only on systems with 10 megabytes of RAM or less. The initial swap file size will be set to 1024KB or 1 megabyte and can grow depending on the amount of virtual memory needed during installation of the ServicePak. This requires you to have at least 5 megabytes of free disk space prior to creating the maintenance system created by SEMAINT. If you have a maintenance system installed with the OS/2 2.1 version of SEMAINT, you must re-install using SEMAINT from this version of the ServicePak. Page 18 CID AND NVDM/2 NOTES ____________________ For LCU and NVDM/2 users, you must unpack SEMAINT.EXE from the CID tree where OS/2 for Windows ServicePak resides, to the CID Code Server, directory ?:\EXE\OS2V21. When invoking SEMAINT.EXE supplied with OS/2 for Windows ServicePak the following rules apply to your installation procedures: 1. FSERVICE.EXE corresponds to the ServicePak for the product you are installing. Therefore, you must make sure your installation procedures access the corresponding version of FSERVICE in the appropriate ServicePak Install tree. 2. When invoking FSERVICE.EXE for OS/2 for Windows ServicePak, you must specify the new "/CID" parameter. This new parameter only applies to installations that have had SEMAINT installed. This new parameter is not needed when the client system is started by diskette. 3. Installation of the OS/2 for Windows ServicePak requires the specification of the "/S2:<CSDpath>" during the invocation of SEMAINT.EXE. 4. Installation of any ServicePak in your procedures FOLLOWING the installation of OS/2 for Windows ServicePak requires that the "/S2:<CSDpath>" parameter be specified during the invocation of SEMAINT.EXE. 5. Installation of any ServicePak in your procedures PRIOR to the installation of OS/2 for Windows ServicePak requires that the "/S2:<CSDpath>" parameter be omitted during the invocation of SEMAINT.EXE.

Therefore, if you are using the OS/2 for Windows ServicePak RIPLINST.EXE program on a client machine with OS/2 version 2.0 or lower, then you must copy the UNPACK.EXE file to the client machine. To do this, do the following: Page 22 1. Insert OS/2 for Windows ServicePak Diskette 2 into drive A 2. At an OS/2 command prompt type: copy a:\unpack.exe \os2\unpack.exe After copying the file to the client machine, you can now execute the OS/2 for Windows ServicePak RIPLINST.EXE program. Page 23 SECTION 3. GENERAL DISPLAY DRIVERS/ADAPTERS ____________________________________________ SUPPORT _______ This ServicePak updates the display driver files that came with your original OS/2 for Windows product package. (Such as the BVHVGA.DLL, BVHSVGA.DLL, VGA.SYS, and VSVGA.SYS.) If you install display drivers that replace these files after you have installed the ServicePak, the updates applied might be removed. DPMS-SUPPORTED DISPLAYS _______________________ The XGA DMQS (\xga$dmqs\*.dqs) files in this version of the operating system do not have DPMS (Display Power Management Signaling) enabled for the DPMS supported displays. You must use the DPMS OVERRIDE parameter provided with the Power Management Utility that is located in System Setup. Page 24 GENERAL DISPLAY ADAPTER SUPPORT _______________________________ INSTALLATION OF SPECIFIC VIDEO ADAPTERS o ATI Graphics Pro Display Adapter In the "OS/2 2.1 Installation Guide", instructions are given for configuring the ATI** Graphics Ultra Pro. These instructions state that the display type for 640 x 480 must be configured to IBM DEFAULT. Note that this setting might be referred to as 60Hz rather than IBM DEFAULT. o Radius XGA Display Adapter The Radius XGA display adapter is supported on PS/2* Models 35 and 40 and PS/ValuePoint* 486 systems. If you are using this display adapter on a PS/ValuePoint system, the VPXGA.EXE utility is required. For a copy of this utility program, check your Radius installation diskette or contact Radius. o Sigma Legend Display Adapter OS/2 for Windows ServicePak cannot restore the state of a Sigma Legend** display adapter after you switch sessions or video modes. Also, the Sigma Legend video adapter might cause the system to stop when using 1024 x 768 x 256 color mode. Use only 640 x 480 or 800 x 600 mode with this adapter. Page 25 INSTALLING HIGH-RESOLUTION AND COLOR ____________________________________ If you want to install a display driver that is higher than 640 x 480 x 16 and you obtained it from a source other than this ServicePak, then use the installation procedures provided in the README file that comes with the display driver. NOTE: The following information pertains to video support. If you want to change your video mode you must use the Selective Install program located in the System Setup folder. Do not use DSPINSTL.EXE to change your video support. After using Selective Install for VGA, you must delete the SVGADATA.PMI file located in the OS2 directory before you shut down your system. IHV DISPLAY DRIVERS TESTED BY IBM Following is a list of Independent Hardware Vendor (IHV) display drivers that are shipped separately from OS/2 for Windows tested by IBM to date. You might have obtained them from a Bulletin Board Service or directly from the hardware vendor.

You can reinstall the S3 16-bit display driver for the 801, 805, and 928 chip sets. There are several versions of OS/2 drivers (available on electronic services and from other vendors) supporting the 90C801, 90C805, and 90C928 chip sets from the S3 Corporation. IBM provides service for the S3 32-bit display driver and recommends that you install the new version of this driver included in OS/2 for Windows ServicePak. This 32-bit display driver better utilizes the S3 chip sets. IBM recommends that you DO NOT reinstall the S3-supplied 16-bit driver, the STB-supplied S3 driver, or the IBM-supplied S3-16M driver. For information about installing S3 video display drivers see the "S3 Driver Installation" section in this file. 2. You can reinstall the Trident-supplied 16-bit display driver, but the OS/2 for Windows ServicePak SVGA 32-bit display driver better utilizes the Trident 8900C cards. IBM provides service for the OS/2 2.1 ServicePak SVGA 32-bit display driver and recommends that you install the new version of this driver. IBM recommends that you DO NOT reinstall the Trident driver supplied on numerous bulletin boards, because it removes fixes from the Base Video Handler and Virtual Device Driver for the OS/2 VGA driver. Page 28 To install the OS/2 for Windows ServicePak SVGA 32-bit display driver, follow these steps: 1. Open the OS/2 System folder. 2. Open the System Setup folder. 3. Open the Selective Install object. 4. Select the items you want to install. 5. Select OK and choose drive A as the source drive. 6. When prompted to insert the OS/2 diskettes, insert the OS/2 for Windows Installation diskettes. (The ServicePak might need to be reapplied to ensure your system is at the proper level.) 7. When you see the Primary Display Adapter Type window, select Trident 8900C. 8. Follow the instructions for the Monitor Configuration/Selection Utility. For more information on when to use this utility to set the refresh rate, see the "OS/2 2.1 Installation Guide," Appendix A. 3. After you install the OS/2 for Windows ServicePak, install the Weitek display driver by following the instructions provided in the Weitek README file. IBM testing indicates that the Weitek display driver runs successfully on several computers but encounters "snow" with some configurations. Page 29 SECTION 4.

Microsoft Windows 3.11 Compatibility Package (, International Business Machines Corporation (IBM)) Readme/What's new
OS/2 FOR WINDOWS COMPATIBILITY WITH MICROSOFT WINDOWS 3.11* For customers desiring OS/2 2.1 for Windows compatibility with Microsoft Windows 3.11, a software update is now available. This update can be downloaded from various OS/2 forums on bulletin boards that include OS2BBS, Prodigy, and Compuserve. The name of this software update is WIN311.ZIP. The purpose of this update is to enable OS/2 2.1 for Windows to interoperate with Microsoft Windows 3.11. This update applies to OS/2 2.1 for Windows, CSD level XR02011, as well as CSD level XR06300, which is the level that results from applying ServicePak XR06300 to OS/2 2.1 for Windows. This update is also required in order for OS/2 2.1 for Windows to interoperate with Microsoft Windows for Workgroups* 3.11. WIN311.ZIP is not a general-purpose servicepak for OS/2 2.1 for Windows. It is a software update built off of a development level of code that necessarily includes some amount of maintenance. OS/2 2.1 for Windows users who do not have Windows 3.11 or Windows for Workgroups 3.11 installed do not require this update. Applying this update allows users who have Windows 3.11 or Windows for Workgroups 3.11 installed to interact with Windows 3.11 from an OS/2 environment. Installation of this code on your OS/2 for Windows system does not affect the operation of Win 3.11 or Windows for Workgroups 3.11 on a DOS system. The networking functions of Windows for Workgroups 3.11 are available via the OS/2 for Windows dual boot capability to the native DOS and Windows for Workgroups environment. Applying this update does not make the Windows for Workgroups networking functions available to the OS/2 for Windows environment. Because this update is being made available "as is," no service entitlement number has been included with the package. This update is available world-wide in national language versions. Customers may make as many copies of WIN311.ZIP as they have licensed copies of OS/2 2.1 for Windows. *Windows and Windows for Workgroups are trademarks of the Microsoft Corporation.
