Hi all,
when I start up Windows 2 on my 286, I get the Microsoft blue logo, then a bunch of garbled text then it spits me back to the DOS prompt. I've seen this before, years ago, but I can't remember exactly how I fixed it.
I seem to remember using setver to trick it into running, can anyone remember how that's done? Hopefully that will fix the problem but it may be something else.
My setup is an IBM 5160 with a Tulip 286 card in it, 700K usable RAM with MS-DOS 6.22. I have an ATI EgaWonder 800+ on an IBM 5153.
Thanks in advance. I can upload a screenshot of the load screen with the garbled messages if that helps.
