Responding to myself. The error was because of a missing DLL from the new driver. It was already in c:\os2\dll but had been renamed to wpconfig.001 when I had rerun the installer. I no longer get the error on boot, but this driver definitely doesn't like my IBM Scroll mouse, at least not through the KVM I am using. The system slows down and the mouse pointer is also very slow and the trackpoint doesn't work at all. However when I put back the Logitech 3 button mouse it works fine.
