    As I was informed, and can now confirm, the Win32k.sys of the 
6.12.2002 release now loads with my current mainboard.

    With it I was able to successfully install RealPlayer 8 using
RP8-setup.exe.  Previously I could not install RP8.

   I was also able to install Hotdog 6.5.  However, there is a problem 
running the program.

   I could not install Acrobat 5.05.  The program gave a popup saying 
"corrupt cabinet file"??  I'm not sure whether it is the installer or 
ODIN.  I'm sure I used the file to install the thing on Win98 but I'll 
have to do a fresh download to be sure.

    RP8 plays the firstrun.rm file but not firstrun.smi I think but it 
hangs the WPS after a few moments whan trying to listen to Australia's 
ABC news.  Watchcat stops working when this happens.  The underlying 
OS/2 still works and CAD has to be used to get back to order.  This 
happens regardless of running the exe directly or with PE.

   Hotdog fails to run with popup saying error 216 at 000094E2.

   OS/2 is Warp 4 with FP15.
