Now up and running
Installation problem: APM
    rem'ed out three lines in the config.sys and away it went.

Everything seems to be working network and sound(rather tinny sounding)

Just noticed that when you do a shutdown, you know how it dimms the 
screen, well it seems to do it by displaying alternately a dark and 
normal intensity screen.
On the thinkpad it has a flickering effect, looks absolutely shocking.

Anyone know how to get rid of it?

Regards

Dennis.

Are you using UniAUD drivers for the "tinny" sound ??

Subject:   OS/2 ACPI driver on Betazone

Dated 15/05/2005, there is a "silent ACPI" driver  on the eCS Betazone 
file area. Access to this area is possible if you have taken out eCS 1.2 
Software subscription services.

I think I'm right in saying, this was one thing that has caused problems 
with installing eCS on new motherboards.

Cheers/2

Ed.
