I also had this problem... I think it happened after re-configuring my
Video Card under windows (ATI Mach64).

I tried the Selective Install option to re-install the OS/2 video
support, but it didn't fix the problem. Finally I just re-installed
(again from Selective Install) the WIN/OS2 support, and this resolved
the problem.

Why it happened in the first place, I don't know!
I guess I'm used to weird things hapenning in WARP and think nothing
of it.
So far though, I think I still prefer WARP over Windows95.
