 Kevin, 
 
          Try the following. Rather than putting a line in your  
STARTUP.CMD file, simply make a shadow of the icon for Deskpic in you  
STARTUP folder. I believe that you press CTRL and tag with the RMB and 
then drag it into the STARTUP folder. 
 
          Then double click on either icon, and the top row of your  
screen should change to a menu bar. Click on the top left corner and  
go into Options to set up time and screen savers. Don't use the  
animated backgrounds, they seem to give OS/2 the pip! 
 
          This works okay on my GASP system. 
 
          Hope that this helps. 
 
          Chris
