OS2SPEED Device Driver for OS/2 V2.0
Version 1.00.00
JUNE 11, 1992
PROBLEM:
Some older NEC systems (ex. PowerMate 386/25S) may experience a
problem when OS/2 V2.0 is booting up. The problem that occurs when
OS/2 V2.0 is booting up is that OS/2 sets the system into low speed.
The OS2SPEED.SYS device driver is used to set the system back into
high speed when OS/2 is booting up.
SOLUTION:
The OS2SPEED.SYS device driver is used to correct this problem.
Follow steps in the installation section to install device
driver.
INSTALLATION:
To install device driver, perform the following steps:
1. Once the system is loaded with OS/2 V2.0 software, you should
see that the system is in low speed when OS/2 is up and running.
2. Select the OS/2 System window.
3. Select the Command Prompts window.
4. Select the DOS Full Screen window.
5. You should now be at the root directory of your hard drive.
Insert the OS2SPEED Device Driver diskette into floppy drive
a:
6. Copy the OS2SPEED.SYS file from the floppy diskette to the
root directory with the following command:
copy a:os2speed.sys .
7. Modify your "CONFIG.SYS" file to include the following line
at the end of the file (make a backup copy of "CONFIG.SYS" before
modifying):
DEVICE=C:\os2speed.sys
8. Exit from the DOS Full Screen window. Begin the OS/2 shutdown
procedure and reboot the system.
9. Once OS/2 is loaded, the system should remain in high speed.
