Forwarding this request for Denny Jizba. Trying to install eCS. At the
format stage, the format process stops (at 45%) and nothing further
happens--repeatable. Took the system to a PC shop and had the hard disk
checked and found nothing wrong. The technician formatted the drive,
and finds nothing abnormal. If boot from OS/2 floppies and try fdisk,
no options are available. Denny tried to install OS/2 2.1 from floppies
and gets the message, non A-BIOS at some point amd the system is
stopped. The system had been working with warp 4 and win NT. I don't
know system specs, but it was purchased from IB about 3 years ago with
Warp 4 and NT. I'm clueless, if anyone has a suggestion, I'll pass it
on to him.

Thanks, Ben A.
