I've struck a problem after installing the driver for the network card (realtek 8139) I followed Ed Durrant's instructions (dated 8.59pm 10/2/05) for when Alan Duval wanted to set his up, by typing MPTS at the command prompt & so on. All went well until it came to rebooting. Upon reboot, after the Warp 4 logo & a few other things, the screen comes to a stop with the following data (gibberish?): C0000005 DOSCALL1.DLL 0002:0000a455 P1=00000001 P2=00000004 P3=XXXXXXXX P4=XXXXXXXX EAX=000300d0 EBX=00000000 ECX=000300C0 EDX=000010ec ESI=00000001 EDI=00000004 DS=0053 DSACC=d0f3 DSLIM=3fffffff ES=0053 ESACC=D0F3 ESLIM=3fffffff FS=150b FSACC=00f3 FSLIM=00000030 GS=0000 GSACC=**** GSLIM=******** CS:E1P=005b:1C02a455 CSACC=d0df CSLIM=3fffffff SS:ESP=0053:000300b0 SSAC=d0f3 SSLIM=3fffffff EBP=000300d8 FLG=00213202 Compounding the problem is that I cant use the selective Archival boot feature because the OS/2 logo at top left-hand corner doesnt appear & alt-f1 doesnt work. I have Windows 98SE on another partition from which I can access Warp via Windows Explorer in case editing the config.sys file might solve the bootup problem. Sorry to spoil your sunday dinner fella's.

Edit out the DEVICE=.....\RTSNDC.OS2 from your config.sys and you should be able to re-boot. Then try using the file version 3.23vk dated 2002-02-13 as I found the later ones didn't work. I can send you a copy off-list if you need it.

This should then work. If you have the sharing PC using one driver and the client PC (whether OS2-eCS, windows or linux) using another, you will get exactly the problem you describe. cheers/2 Ed. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- **= Email 4 ==========================** Date: Sun, 24 Apr 2005 22:24:06 +1000 From: Ed Durrant Subject: Re: EPSON C65 PRINTER Ed Durrant wrote: > nickl at pacific dot net dot au wrote: > >> Hi All. >> >> A while back I bought an Epson C65 Printer, after looking at the >> os2warp.be site.
