Hello there. I was lucky enough to find a copy of OS/2 2.1 for Windows for free with sealed disk packs. I am tossing around the idea of installing it to a 486 HP Vectra. As the earliest OS/2 version I have played around with was OS/2 Warp 3, I have a few questions that maybe some members more knowledgeable about the earlier versions can answer.
I installed a Sound Blaster Pro 2 in the Vectra and was wondering if OS/2 2.1 has support for it. It also has a separate Creative Labs ISA IDE card to support a CDROM drive. I was wondering if that card, which uses the SB-IDE driver in DOS, is compatible with OS/2 2.1 as well. I have found drivers, but I think they only support OS/2 Warp 3 or later for both of them.
