- Kevin,
-
- Try the following. Rather than putting a line in your
- STARTUP.CMD file, simply make a shadow of the icon for Deskpic in you
- STARTUP folder. I believe that you press CTRL and tag with the RMB and
- then drag it into the STARTUP folder.
-
- Then double click on either icon, and the top row of your
- screen should change to a menu bar. Click on the top left corner and
- go into Options to set up time and screen savers. Don't use the
- animated backgrounds, they seem to give OS/2 the pip!
-
- This works okay on my GASP system.
-
- Hope that this helps.

- Chris
