- I had this problem with PCPlus running under DOS. The problem was a virus
- that had crept into the system and damaged one of the files. I don't
- recall, but I don't think it was the .exe. After deleting all the files and
- running a virus program, and re-installing from the master disks, everything
- worked ok.
-
- Now about os-2. PCPlus runs of for me on os-2. I mentioned the problem I
- had with dos since the symptoms are identical to yours with os-2. You might
- try copying the files from the installation diskette again.
-
- Good Luck
