| 1. Does anyone know where I can get either a VESA or Nvidia Riva TNT2 display driver for OS/2(Nvidia does not support OS/2 anymore and I don't know where I could get a VESA driver). 2. When I reboot my computer after installing OS/2, I get the following message(paraphrased): code: then OS/2 does not load. |

| Hi Which OS/2 version it is ? Warp 4.0 ? or Warp 4.52 ? If you used Warp 4.0, did you patches the diskettes to have bigger HDD support? Martin |

| 1) About the video driver, my advice if you to try Scitech SNAP video driver. You can test the trial and if it works you can buy the non-expiring version. http://www.scitechsoft.com/products/ent/snap_os2_content.html Other Video drivers possible can be downloaded from hobbes. 2) About the error you are getting, Does it happens after you complete all the OS/2 installation, or on the first reboot that OS/2 mades when installing it shows this error (in other words, have you ever seen the OS/2 workplace ?) Possible you can press Alt+F2 when OS/2 shows up at the left-top, and try to find on which file it crash. Martin |

| This error message happens after I complete the full installation, boot into the workplace shell, then restart it after the system designates shutdown or Ctrl+Alt+Del after I press the shut down button. It seems Scitech's SNAP driver isn't being sold on trial anymore - HTTP 404. I am hoping IBM's Nvidia video driver works... Radek: I have sent the mail. Thanks for your help:) |

You can get a "personal" edition of scitech snap which supports only 1 chipset (of your choice) from the scitech website. |

| Thanks Sebadoh, now that fixes that problem. I'll be sure to try the driver out after I can boot. I will follow up the the possible defective driver in a sec. |

| Okay, I've found the solution on a Usenet Archive, but it brings up another question - How the heck do I insert Ascii Code #26 onto the end of this file(^Z)? |

| The driver has been sent. You will need fp5 installed (the driver is GRADD). AFAIK, it should be the original nVidia driver for Riva video cards - I had Riva TNT2 Ultra in my machine for some time before and the driver run perfectly. Run setup.cmd without parameters, it should tell you which parameters it wants. HTH |
