| Hi, From an OS/2 prompt in the correct directory, you can change the attributes using the "ATTRIB" command. attrib -r -s -h config.x would remove read only, system and hidden attributes (for example). OS/2 (IIRC) will reset the attributes on reboot though. -Robert |

What for ;-( "config.x" is a result of the command line order: ARCINST !!! You may mess up your system with manipulating system files from the wrong side  Good luck  |

Perhaps he meant 'config.sys'? Is this not where one adds the usb device lines?

Not if the OP want USB support when booting to a command line from the "Alt+F1" recovery menu. This is, when CONFIG.X is used and especially in case an installation was moved to different hardware it may make good sense to update CONFIG.X manually. |
