Message-ID: <1991Jun24.003205.29353@rice.edu> Date: 24 Jun 91 00:32:05 GMT Sender: news@rice.edu (News) Organization: Rice University Lines: 14 I have installed OS2 on a 386 clone pc with 2 toshiba IDE drives and have been having a strange problem. After booting up, OS2 locks up solid within a couple of minutes. Even the mouse cursor remains frozen. CRTL-ALT-DEL has no effect and the harddrive lights remain on until the machine is reset. Is there a known problem with IDE drives (All or some ?). I would appreciate any info. -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Sarmad Adnan (adnan@rice.edu) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
