I have tried to install Windows 3.0 as a DOS session under OS/2 2.0
beta 6.123. I had to boot the machine in DOS to install it (I am
testing OS/2 2.0 on a mchine with FAT partiotion). The program-Manager
comes up fine, and the game solitaire works. But when I try to run
other Windows-applications, the system stops.

I have been told that it should be possible to run Windows under the
current beta of OS/2 2.0, if the "Advanced" settings in the
Properties-box for Windows is set correct. But I do not know the right
settings?

If you answer by e-mail, I think that the return-path that is used by
the system is not correct. Use the following e-mail adress:
