Comment: I have a Celeron 466 PC with 128M of memory and two hard drives installed. Windows 2000 is installed on the first drive together with other applications. Can anyone please explain to me how to install OS/2 Warp4 on the same PC? Which operating system must be installed first, what are the likely problems? Thanx

Reply: (edit)From my experience you will need to install os 2 first and then 2000. I would make sure that your system compatible with os 2 first though, I try to install ver 3 os/2 of my system which is similar to yours celeron 433 64md a 6.4 hd partitioned into three.
The installation of os 2 ran smoothly but I received a error message say I had to get incontact with support. I had a feeling the celeron processor was compatible with os2 but I did not check this, if possible you must check before you start redoing you hard and leave yourself with a computer and os on it. I had a perfectly working computer running win98 / win2000 and be os with corel-linux. all this had to come off to install os2. And I bet you can think of what Iwas saying when os2 did not work. Please do you home work first and find out if you computer is compatible with os2. Any question you can email me at steven_faircloth@lineone.net

Reply: (edit)I have a blank partition ready for OS/2. How do I install OS/2 on a machine with Windows 2000 and Windows 98 already on it?
