I have an IBM Intellistation with 266mhz PII, 64 mb, Matrox G200 video
card and an IBM flat panel digital display T55D set up in a peer to peer

network with two other computers.

I have os/2 warp v4 and fixpak 9 installed. I am trying to boot from
drive A: with dos 6.22, but after the startup screen: "Starting
MS-DOS..." the dos full screen closes. Today I discovered that everytime

the startup screen was sent to the printer.

The T55D knows only one format: 1024*768 at 60 mhz, so when you startup
dos you get a little screen.

I cannot figure out what is wrong.

Has anyone had such experience?

On the laptop I have no problem starting dos from drive A. I did not try

it yet on the third PC.
