The other day, someone on here wanted to know what was causing a
POST  error 162 on their PS/2.  Everyone suggested the normal things,
but the person said none of them helped.

I just finished talking with an IBM Technician.  It seems early
versions of several PS/2 models had bugs that included an
erroneous 162 POST error.  To fix this and several other problems,
all one must do is install the line:

        DEVICE=DASDDRVR.SYS in their config.sys file.

The file DASDDRVR.SYS in on your reference.

Hope this information is useful!
