After I had installed the Utilities 2.0 diskette in OS/2 all I got was the EasyPlaying icon in the WPS, the PCMCIA icon in the OS/2 System icon and another Power icon in the same folder. This last icon only shows the status of the battery and since I never use the battery there is actually nothing to display. What I would like to do is to stop my harddisk spinning after 5 minutes of inactivity, at the moment its configured in DOS to stop at 3. Can you tell me where I should find POWEROS2? I have failed to find it in the Utilities diskette. Am I supposed to install the utilties with the battery working, is that why I dont have any icon enabling me to control power?
