This, and all other responses about multi-tasking are completely
irrelevant, and 100% non-helpful.

I use OS/2 as a personnal desktop machine. I use a VIO ICQ client, a PM
web browser, a PM e-mail client, a VIO MP3 player, etc.. etc.. etc..

Running in text-only mode is NOT ACCEPTABLE. I want to be able to use my
4 MB EDO S3 Virge/DX video card with OS/2 Warp 4 without my system
crashing when I get to a DOS prompt. Unless anybody can help me with
this problem, rather than going off on a tangeant about booting to text
mode, please do not respond.
