- Does Windows 3.1 somehow modify Windows 3.0 executables so they won't
- run under OS/2? I've been using several Windows programs in OS/2
- for quite some time with no problems whatsoever until I mistakenly
- installed Windows 3.1 on a FAT partition. When I booted DOS
- and ran Windows 3.1, everything ran perfectly, but then when I went
- back to OS/2 2.0, I couldn't run any of the Windows programs that
- I had tried under Windows 3.1. Does Windows 3.1 modify executables
- so they won't run under OS/2?!?! My only 'solution' to this problem
- was to reinstall all my Windows programs again under OS/2. Is there
- anything else I could possibly do?
