Help!

How can I get colors to this OS/2 Presentation Manager,
version 1.20 (beta). I just installed it, the installation
program just confirms I have an EGA display - and the
PM display comes out in black and white - looks quite
awful, just like a CGA display ):

The EGA adapter has 256k of video memory in it, doesnt
OS/2 support it ? Where can I get a proper driver which
could display EGA in colors ?
