IBM PC330/PC350 - Non-functional icons on OS/2 launchpad

Applicable to: World-Wide

Problem :
IBM PC 300 Series 6577 and 6587 systems preloaded with OS/2 Warp Connect may display corrupted and non-functional icons when the arrow over the OS/2 Window icon is clicked.

Problem Isolation Aids :
When the arrow over the OS/2 Window icon is clicked, a box opens with two buttons and no pictures. If either button is clicked nothing happens. There is no operational connection to the program any longer. The DOS Full Screen and DOS Windows icons should be present.

Solution :
Click the arrow above the OS/2 Window icon on the Launchpad. Drag the non-functional icons to the Shredder. Open the OS/2 System folder followed by the Command Prompts folder. Drag and drop the two DOS Window and Full Screen icons from the Command Prompts folder to the Launchpad to replace the non-functional icons.
