Return to The Config.sys Documentation Project Main Page

Device Drivers are needed by OS/2 to work with your installed hardware. The Device Drivers are loaded after the Base Device Drivers Unlike the Base Device Drivers, the Device Drivers are loaded in the order they appear in the config.sys file. The following pages describe these entries:

DEVICE=$ICPMOS2.SYS

Power Management Driver for PCMCIA

  DEVICE=$ICPMOS2.SYS

ATTENTION: Must be after all other listed drivers in the config.sys.

Platform Support:

OS/2 2.x	OS/2 3.0	OS/2 4.0	OS/2 4.5x	eCS 1.x	eCs 2.x

DEVICE=AD1816DD.SYS

Analog Devices AD1816 Soundport Driver

 DEVICE=AD1816DD.SYS

Parameter:

/N:$strng$

Device driver name assigned by MINSTALL

/3:y

3D Phase expansion (0-31)

NOTE: The Aztech SC16-3D sound card has an Analog Devices AD1816 chip whose drivers should work, in theory. The problem is that this card does not report itself as a standard AD1816 based board, so even though the PnP-Manager correctly initializes the card, the driver can neither recognize the board nor pick up the IRQ, I/O, and DMA values from the PnP-Manager. Martin Schaffoener (martin.schaffoener@student.uni-magdeburg.de) patched the driver so it will work also with this card. Search for azsc163d.zip

Together with the APMDAEMN.SYS these settings can also be done by using the Power-Symbol in your System Setup Folder.

TIP: To work correctly you have 1. to change your Warp-Center properties to 'Show only when Mouse is over Center's position' and 2. enable in 'Power Properties' in your System folder on the 'Performance' page 'Automaticall change performance when the power source changes'. (Only tested with Warp4 fixpak 13).

TIP: When OS/2 fails to install in ACPI only Systems REM this driver (has to be done on the Installationdisks too) or give APM_NH.SYS a try, it is rported to work on Intel based Motherborads too.

DEVICE APM_NH.SYS

Replacement APM driver (APM_NH.SYS) APM_NH.SYS is based on 10.037 level of IBM's APM.SYS (same as XR_D002 but probably outdated with respect to OS/2 v 4.52 G.A.). Its purpose is to honor the APM hooks installed by VIAAPM.SYS while allowing usual APM tasks such as power-down or suspend mode. It is therefore essential that one installs APM_NH.SYS rather than APM.SYS, so the KT266A idle hook would not be taken out by IBM's driver.

  DEVICE APM_NH.SYS

Tip: In System which only have ACPI it is reported that APM-NH.SYS works even it is a Intel chipset.

Used by the Firewall built into TCP/IP 4.1 and above. This is IBM's Commerical Data Masking Facility encryption driver.

It supports the VPN (Virtual Private Network) built-in to the firewall of TCPIP 4.1 and later. This driver uses a larger data block than DES and is faster than competing protocol drivers. It is a enhanced version of DES. Many to don't consider it as strong an algorithm as Blowfish or Ideal, widely available competitors to this protocol.

DEVICE=CDROMMGR.DMD

CD-ROM device manager which prevents subsequent requests to different slots of a CD changer.

  DEVICE=CDROMMGR.DMD

NOTE: OS2CDROM.DMD must be disabled to work.

Parameter:

/T:n

CDROMMGR.DMD has the changer feature enabled by default. It prevents slot changes for 1000ms by returning ERROR_DEVICE_NOT_READY to the caller. The timeout value can be set at load time through option /T: The valid range is from 1 second up to 60 seconds. If CDROMMGR.DMD does not find a CD Changer device, the feature will automatically be disabled and cannot be activated.

/C

CDROMMGR.DMD will manage only CD Changers. Normal CD-ROM drives or CD Burners will not get allocated. This option is useful if you want to use another CD-ROM device manager for special features, like CTCDROM.DMD for Unite CD-Maker. To make sure that CDROMMGR.DMD gets control over the CD Changer devices, it has to be loaded as the first CD-ROM manager.

DEVICE=CFOS.SYS

CFOS is a driver that sits between your ISDN hardware and your Modem Software ( Internet Dialer, Terminal program). It emulates a COM port. 'cFos' device driver receives the usual modem commands, the so-called AT commands from the communication programs and turns them into the corresponding ISDN CAPI commands. ISDN CAPI responses are turned into modem responses of the same meaning, so that the communication programs 'understand' them.

  DEVICE=C:\Cfos\Cfos.Sys <parameters>

As you can enter any equipment names (e.g.: ISDN1) or several COM ports (a maximum of two in the shareware version, up to 30 in 'cFos Professional'). Be careful not to enter COM ports that actually exist as hardware and are in use (e.g. a COM port for your mouse).

NOTE: The CFOS.SYS driver should be loaded after drivers for serial interfaces (COM.SYS oder SIO.SYS) and after the CAPI driver.

DEVICE=COM.SYS

These driver is required for serial communication.

  DEVICE=C:\OS2\Boot\COM.SYS <parameters>

TIP: below. This line MUST appear after any driver that uses a communications port. Older versions of COM.SYS are limited to 57600 Baud, newer ones (e.g. delivered with Warp 4) are able to do 115200 Baud. Beginning with build 10.042 PCI Add-On cards with implemented software interrupt sharing are supported too, beginning with build 10.052 there are 16 com ports available and beginning with build 10.068 Combo Cards are supported.

TIP: There are two very good replacement drivers called SIO.SYS\VSIO.SYS.

TIP: To add support for COM3 and COM4 at location 3E8 with IRQ 4 and 2E8 with IRQ 3 respectively, add (3,3E8,4) (4,2E8,3) to the DEVICE line, e.g.

  DEVICE=drive:\OS2\COM.SYS (3,3E8,4) (4,2E8,3)

You can also use this method to change a COM ports assigned IRQ. The normal address for COM1 is 3F8 and IRQ 4, for COM2 2F8 and IRQ3.

TIP: With ThinkPads should the address be added. e.g:

  DEVICE=drive:\OS2\BOOT\COM.SYS (1,3F8,4) (2,2F8,3)

Parameter:

/V

Verbose (since 10.052)

/W
