Something odd and irritating happened to my OS/2 desktop.

When I restart my computer, it boots etc. I get a startup.cmd window.
The desktop flashes grey as usual, then returns to the desktop color.

So far so good.

Now the system does one of two things:
1. finishes the startup, and puts all my icons and stuff on screen
2. sits there and does nothing. No icons etc. Moving the startup.cmd
window or ctrl-esc hangs PM until a "Desktop not responding" window comes up,
and I can kill it.

So where does my desktop go? Bad day? Doesn't feel like coming out to play?

Fortunately, I have the startup.cmd window up, and I'm getting used to  typeing
"kill 5" to kill the desktop, and recycle it. It then comes out to play :^)

(If I didn't have a startup.cmd window, and kill, I'd be more than irritated!
at least now I can recover)

-I always shutdown properly, even "refresh" before shutting down. No help
-I rebooted from the install disks etc. and tried chkdsk /f:3 and
that didn't find any weirdness

Any helpful suggestions?
