- Hello all, I have a few problems with OS/2 nothing major, but I can't seem
- to be able to figure it out.
-
- 1)After boot major books OS/2 GA (no csd yet!) I get the chkdsk error
- (although the following is from a os/2 window chkdsk program the
- error, and report are the same.)
- My question is
- A) How do I fix this small but anoying problem?
- B) How do I reduce the amount of swap file?
- I have a 486dx-50 with 32 mb of ram.
-
- The type of file system for the disk is HPFS.
- The HPFS file system program has been started.
- SYS0552: The system found file system errors on the
- disk specified.
- CHKDSK corrected an allocation error for the file \OS2\SYSTEM\SWAPPER.DAT.
- CHKDSK corrected an allocation error for the file \OS2\SYSTEM\SWAPPER.DAT.
- CHKDSK is searching for lost data.

- 2) My next problem is with the trident drivers... I have a 8900c and
- installed the pm12.zip file, and installed the 1024x768x256 with
- 8514/a resources, the WPS looks great, but my os/2, dos full screen
- sessions get garbled if I ctrl-esc back to the wps. I have heard
- that I might have to re-install the system, if so how can I save my
- current settings, I like where all the windows are, and my shadows
- are extensiv
