1. Installing OS/2 V4
When I'm installing the OS/2, the first part of the setup runs OK (text mode), but when the computer restart to enter in the graphic mode, the computer begins to show a sequence of "01"... and nothing more....
Can anyone help-me
Thanks

The sequence of digits is that in a OS2 window or simple direct over the initial WPS?
Was there any errors during the startup, lines that was skipped or that you had to hit enter?

Graphics mode? Was it when it shows the background 'wallpaper'? Could this have meant it could have gone back to a command line and showing a number?
Did you install using updated installation diskettes?
OS/2 Warp-ed to the very end.

The sequence of "01" appears right after the BIOS message "Verifying DPMI Pool...." :-|

So this would be directly after BIOS run and when OS2 started to boot up in the CLI mode. This would mean that you have just seen the small white cursor box with OS2 after in the upper left corner, or? If so, when seeing this small box + OS2 press ALT+F2 to figure out what line in config.sys it has problem with. This gives a better clue on what to do.
