1. Installing OS/2 Warp v3 in Virtual PC - Problem
Reply to this topic with quote Modify your message
I am attempting to install OS/2 in Virtual PC on a 1.6ghz Pentium 4 using the original floppy disks. The settings work fine, setup goes well, I partition the HD, restart, and begin installation.

Unfortunately for me, I insert disk 2 when it asks and press enter, but it does not proceed further with the installation. All it does is look at the floppy for half a second before stopping the drive.

Is this a software or a hardware problem? Any recommendations for fixing this?

Thanks!

Warp 3 runs fine in a virtual PC, but maybe I installed from the disks, and maybe I unzipped a working Warp 3.

At least update the install disks to the latest free IDEDASD.
