- After playing around for several hours, I rebooted OS/2 and it fails to
- boot. After the os/2 logos appear the screen clears and c0000005 is displayed
- in the top left of the screen. At this point the computer is locked.
- During the session, I made meny changes and ran many programs that
- I down loaded from c.o.os2.binaries. I have no idea what could have been
- corrupted, or how anything was corrupted. I called ibm, and they sent me a
- fix which did not work.
-
- My only alternative that I see is too reinstall os/2.
-
- My questions: How and what do i back u,p, so that after the installation
- I can have all the WPS settings stay as they were. I have spent many, many
- hours setting up things just they way I want them and I do NOT want to loose
- any of this work.
-
- Thanks
