Larry,
"Have you put a /BGEXEC parameter on the end of the Device=vsvga.sys line in
CONFIG.SYS?"
No.
"What video card/chipset/os2 driver are you using?"
Diamond Viper PCI (p9000) – OS/2 driver supplied by Diamond.
"My understanding is that some vendor os/2 video drivers don't support
background graphics."
It works just fine for AutoCAD 12c3.
"FWIW, the latest Vibrant drivers includes a "null" driver – no graphics/no
background execution problem (for background slave rendering.)"
I am using this and it makes no difference.

I found that I needed the /bgexec parameter on the device=vsvga.sys line in
order to run 3ds in the backgroumd on a diamond stealth 24. You might want to
give it a try. LAM

I don't have a "device=vsvga.sys" in my config.sys. Also, I am using a Diamond
Viper PCI. I have lots of lines refering to the Viper. If you are really
interested I could send you my OS/2 config.sys e-mail.

The full line would look like: Device=C:\os2\vsvga.sys
Of course with the Viper, who knows what driver is actually being used. Go
ahead and E-mail me a copy of your config.sys. Also include a brief
description of your system configuration.
