that was cured by increasing the THREADS= number in CONFIG.SYS. Try
changing that to eiither 1536, or 2048.
I removed the SoundBlaster drivers and set THREADS to 1536 and it
worked on next reboot.
I restored the SB drivers and kept the THREADS and it worked.
I am restoring the startup sound, but it seems that your THREADS
suggestions solves or at least palliates the problems.
It's not that likely that the THREADS setting solved your problem causal. It is more likely that the setting prevents a Ring-0 data bomb from hitting its target.
Using a high THREDS setting reserves more space for the kernel. Unused space. This changes the memory location of almost everything. So invalid memory accesses now hit somwhere else.
The multimedia subsystem has always been the week point of OS/2.
