Subject: LOADER Problems

Ok... I installed Win95 (Yuck) on my computer so I could play a few of
my little brothers games he got for Christmas. I had OD702B2 on there
before and Win95 installed over it (ok... that's fine with me). Then I
reinstalled OD702B2 which installed LOADER. Now I reboot after the
install and get the LOADER menu. If I select the OD option... I briefly
see "IBMBIO.COM", the screen clears, the system locks up... the three
finger salute doesn't work... and I have to do a hard reset.

Any ideas on how to get this fixed?

Oh. I have an OS/2 Primary Partition. A very small DOS/Win95 Primary
partition. A FAT16 shared Extended partition (A few OS/2 extended
partitions also) and The OS/2 Boot Manager Partition. If I select the
normal boot from LOADER screen... everything works... as normal. I put
Win95 and OpenDOS on the D: drive and all their boot files appear to be
on the C: drive. If anyone needs to see my Config.sys autoexec.bat (or
ODs equivalent) let me know.

Thanks,
Glenn E. Davis
