I had that happen once. Don't know if this will help but go to control panel, click on network connections and then click on repair connection and see if that helps.

The drivers on the ecomstation 1.2 disk.
#3
I had the same problem.  Had to use a SB card and the audio drivers from ecomstation 1.2.
#4
The cd drive is an old one.  Bought it from a liquidator.  Brand new condition though and it worked perfectly with 1.2. It is set as master. I think I am going to get a SATA drive and give it a try. Oh, I went back to the Dani drivers on 2.1 with no parameters since it worked the best so far.  Will check out netlabs. Thanks

Doug,
Did all that you said to do.  Only difference is boot time is shorter.  Did stumble on one thing in the config.sys file. DANIS506.ADD had the /BIOS parameter which was not in the config.sys file in the 1.2 verson.  I deleted the parameter rebooted and now the cd rom works better.  Not great, but after a few clicks it opens the file tree.  Tried opening the drive under windose in the VPC and it opens with no problem.  I then installed the DANIS506.ADD and DANATAP.FLT from the 1.2 version but no change.  But at least I can use the cdrom now.  Maybe there is a parameter that I should be using but I couldn't find her website.

thanks for the advice,

Marc

Like I said. Drive acts normal til it boots to the WPS.  Drive is near new. I know it's not the drive and don't see any problems with the config.sys file. But here it is.  Maybe I missed something.

The cd is set to master since I run scsi drives.  Have RSJ disabled.  Thing just won't spool up to speed. Got me baffled.
#8
I re-install the 1.2 sound drivers and everything works great now. (Almost).  Have 2 more questions and then I'll go back into lurking.
1. Ever since the 2.1 upgrade my cd rom runs real slow.  Have to keep clicking on the icom and finally a window opens.  I chose "legacy" during the install. The drive is an IDE and the motherboard is 6 years old. If i put a boot disk in it runs fine so it's not the CD rom.  I do have SATA connections on the board.  Would installing a SATA CD drive solve the problem?
2. Have a 36 gb memory stick that I can't read nor write to.  What's the solution?  I have a 2 gb and it works fine.

Again, thanks for all the help,

Marc

Looks like I will have to go back to the drivers that came with 1.2.  The on board sound system did not work with the 1.2 drivers so I turned it off and plugged in an old SB card and got sound both in windose and OS/2. Looks like that's what I will have to do again.  The 2.1 drivers work with the on board sound system but not VPC.
Thanks for refreshing me on turning on the sound on VPC.  Been a long time since I had to do that.  Memory is going. Wrote it down in the book that came with VPC.
#10
I upgraded to ECS 2.1 and got the OS/2 sound to finally work.  Now under VPC Windoze sounds do not work.  I have in the parameters box /tweak.  Is this right? Any other ideas?

Thanks

I couldn't find any reference in the config file.  Did find a setting in the note book tab to not use the trash can which I checked.  You can delete individual files in the trash can.  Problem is you can't delete any file that the system is determining the size of.That's where it hangs.  Black Hole.  That's what I remember now. Thanks, I'll look for it.

Can I just shred the trash can?  I really don't care if I have it.

Utilities / Can't empty trash can
2012.01.09, 03:24:52
After cleaning up my computer after a hard drive upgrade I find I can't empty the trash.  System hangs and cpu shoots to 100%.  I think the offending file is an old directory of Firefox (Home).  Is there another way to empty the trash?
#14
Ok I did everything you guys said.  Files checked out ok.  Removed entries from ini files.  Got rid of the epromi5.drv by remming  out print1.drv in the config.sys file.  Rebooted moved the eprom directory into a temp folder and shredded it rebooted with the rem line deleted  went to install printer choose epson c-80 and said it couldn't find the file pmdd_5 in the ecs\install\prn directory.  So I went to install it as I have allways done in the last 30 years and it still won't work.  One of concern is epomni5.ea fron the eprom package.  If it is the extended attributes, what program can I use tool put them back in the .drv file?


Never mind! I got it working! Finally! Used some drivers from an Australian web site.  Went to the os2\dll\epsoni5 directory right clicked on the driver and selected install.  Tried to print no go.  Then I double clicked on the driver and copied the printer C-80 to the desktop and set the right port and now it's working like a charm. It may not be the right way but it worked!
Now if I can only find out why my cd drive takes so long to read the disk.

#15
What editor do you use for the ini files? As for the ea's how would I know if they are missing?  Everything else checks out ok.
I do show a file epomn15.ea in the eprom15 package. If that file are the extended attributes what program would I use connect them to the .drv file?

Thanks for the tips!
