It was the usual fun. :-)

I can't quite tell what you are trying to do, but you have to follow the
directions:

- unzip gsv431os2 to a work directory (you can junk the directories)
- copy gs800os2 to the directory containing os2setup.exe
do not unzip it
- run os2setup
- follow the dialogs
this should install GS and GV and create a desktop object
- click on the Desktop object and fill in the settings

Is this what you are doing? If you are doing this and os2setup is
failing, you need to fix that first. Anything else will be harder. Check
your emx version first.

>The documentation refers to GVOS2.EXE, but not to GVPM.EXE.

I sounds like you are reading the the wrong documentation. The file you
want is readme.htm from the GV zip file:
