- WARP INFORMATION FOR WINDOWS APPLICATIONS
- ===============================================================
-
- This document contains updated Windows Application information
- for OS/2 WARP. It includes:
-
- - Questions
- - Changes made to Windows files by WARP
- - Intermittent GP faults in Quicken for Windows V 4.0
- ================================================================
-
-
- 1. Can OS/2 WARP be installed over OS/2 2.1 or 2.11?
-
- Currently, OS/2 Warp can only be installed over OS/2 for Windows,
- DOS, or a blank partition. Information regarding the full-pack
- release is not yet available.
-
-
- 2. My mouse isn't working in WINOS2, but it does work in in OS/2
- and DOS. What's wrong?
-
-
- Check the IRQ settings, there is probably an IRQ conflict
- between serial ports. If mouse is on COM1, then disable COM3 or
- assign it to another IRQ. You can change COM3 and COM4 IRQ's and
- address, for example:
-
- X:\OS2\COM.SYS(3.03e8,2)
-
- NOTE:
-
- If you want to use IRQ5, LPT port #2 must be disabled.
-
- If you use IRQ 2 or 9, remember that these are cascaded
- IRQ's.
