DESCRIPTION

When the system is started with archiving turned on, it locks up or 
stops.

RESOLUTION

Turn archiving off:

1. Turn on the system. If it is already on, perform a shutdown and then
   press Ctrl+Alt+Del.

2. When the small white box appears in the upper-left corner, press
   Alt+F1.

3. At the Recovery Choices screen, select C.

4. At the command prompt, type the following, pressing Enter after
   each:

      CD OS2\BOOT
      ATTRIB -R ARCHBASE.$$$
      DEL ARCHBASE.$$$

5. Restart the system.

Note: Do not press Alt+F1 this time. Let the system start as usual.
      This also resets the location of the archive directory to the
      default of OS2\ARCHIVES.
