Fetch from somewere the OS2V234T.ZIP (Iomega OS/2 OAD drivers Release 2.34) Make on the service-program-disks (the 2nd) a directory /OAD Copy to there the follow files (included in OS2V234T.ZIP): config.dev, config.oad, genoad.exe, genoad.hlp, genoad.ico, genoad.msg, os2.sys, ppa.adp, ppa.opt, ppa3.adp, ppa3.opt, zip-100.dev, zip-100.opt The CONFIG.SYS of the service-program-disks should include the follow line: device=a:\oad\os2.sys Execute the genoad.exe for initialize the config.oad Have a look that the printer port is in BIOS on correct PORT-adress and INT (so happens me, there was some where) After all that it is possible to make with the OS/2-own BACKUP.EXE and RESTORE.EXE completely desaster recovery and movings betwen harddisks. Don't forgot to make SYSINSTX for the recovered/new harddisk. > Am using OS/2 Warp 3.0 no fix packs. Slowely it will be time to make an FIX Bye/2 Hans
