Comment: When Running FoxPro for Windows Version 2.6 on an PC that has been upgraded from Windows 95/98 to Windows 2000 Professional, it does not work. It attempts to start and begins to allocate the application usage to ntvdm.exe and then terminates itself and the ntvdm.exe all together.
If I run another 16-bit application, it runs and is allocated to the ntvdm.exe. Then I keep that app open and run FoxPro for Windows version 2.6 and it terminates all applications allocated to the ntvdm.exe at that time and terminates ntvdm.exe
Computers that have Windows 2000 Profession complete install (Or that have not been upgraded from 95/98) do not have this problem.
Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Reply: (edit)Well Im a little surprised your still using that version of FoxPro...........unfortunately Windows 2000 doesnt handle 16 bit dos apps very well. But I really only have one or two of those left so its not a problem with me.
