From: Pierre Milcent (f081701_at_fr.ibm.com)

My name is Pierre Milcent and i work for IBM France. My working machine is a
TP756D with 64 MB Ram and a 3GB HD. I run OS/2 Warp 4.0. Recently i applied
Fixpak 5 and since the multimedia doesn't work. It seems that i installed the
MPEG diskette II on OS/2 and it was a mistake. Fixpak 5 and these drivers are
not going well together.

Does someone know how to remove and/or reinstall MMPM without reinstalling OS/2
on such thinkpad ?

Thanks.

I too have noticed that the internal modem is flaky, and have had problems when
using it with TCP/IP, though not as severe as what you described. It works fine
for me with the Faxworks from Warp 4. You might be better off though using a PCMCIA
modem anyways, though some say the modem works just fine.

I assume you can get the manual from IBM; try calling their main number
@ 1-800-426-3333, and they might me able to guide you from there. Ask for
a publication dept. or something like that.

Good luck.

Paul
