Error:

"The program pointed to by the SET RUNWORKPLACE= line in config.sys, this file, could not be started."




 * Suggestion 1.

Boot from a diskette, or CD-ROM, do a "chkdsk c: /f"


 * Suggestion 2.

Modify OS2.INI with regedit2

Instructions
 * Use Alt-F1 at boot-up, then choose F4 (Maintenance Desktop)
 * Minimize the big window which covers the Desktop and move the Selective Install window out of the way
 * From the System->Command Prompts folder, open an OS/2 window
 * If you have a preferred ini-editor run it from there, otherwise run "regedit2"
 * Select os2.ini (a.k.a. the "user profile")
 * Locate the "SYS_DLLS" entry, and under that select "LoadPerProcess"
 * In the data for this entry, confirm that each DLL name listed is separated by a space. In a standard install, you should see "PMCTLS SND".  If instead, you see "PMCTLSSND ", then this is the problem.  Use the editor to insert a space, then exit and reboot.

Recreate the INI files (Custom desktop icons shadows (shourtcuts) may be lost)
 * Suggestion 3.

makeini os2.ini ini.rc makeini os2sys.ini inisys.rc
 * Execute in the command line
