    Hasn't there been quite a few OS/2 releases since 1.05? Something much more recent even? Heck, I thought there was one for the 1.11 full
    release even.

    I have an archive of older releases, and it looks like the latest OS/2
    version I see is 1.07.3 from back around 2001 I think.

    I believe the latest versions of OS/2 were the 1.08 alphas, but I never kept any of the alpha releases in my archives.

    All I could find on the Mystic website was a 1.05 release.

    I am looking at my files and it looks like the problem is that I don't have
    the 1.05 to 1.06 upgrade package.

    But I have the files that would allow you to run a native 1.07.3 OS/2 version
    - its just the upgrade from 1.05 to 1.06 that is questionable.

    Ah yes. I was just pointing out that there were indeed newer OS/2 releases at one point than the one he was running (at least that's what I remembered anyway). Whether they're archived anywhere or not, was a separate story. ;)

    Regards,
    Nick

    So found the 1.07 DOS full release. It seems to be working better than the 1.05 release I was trying out. Now to find the native OS/2 version, or I
    could just stick with the DOS version :)
