Hmmm... I got into this rat race with (I think) Warp 3 Red when it
first came out. Even after the boot completed I could NOT open a DOS
or WinOS2 session. Trying it gave me and 'out of memory' or some such
message box. Turned out to be one of the vdos---.sys modules was
crashing during the boot and it tied up the whole subsystem. I started
rem'ing out the vdos---.sys entries in Config.sys one at a time til I
got thru. I'd strongly suspect the line immediately preceeding the
VW32S.SYS entry - as good a place to start as any!
You might also check you Config.sys file with a different editor just
in case there is a screwy character there that's fouling things up.
Had this happen once also - talk about hard to find!!

AH! That is a critical point - all my machines were at the FP1 level.
As to speed, I see no perceptible change, but on a DX2/66, 32 meg what
can I expect??
