Ntvdm Error Windows 7
4:58 PM Reply | Quote Answers 2 Sign in to vote Hi, This problem occurs because the Wow32.dll module does not convert the DEVMODE data structure from the 16-bit Windows 3.1 version to a 32-bit ANSI version. Therefore, the Ntvdm.exe process uses the wrong DEVMODE buffer size to transfer data to the printer spooler service. There are a couple of things to check: 1) The version of WOW32.DLL. The version on the machine should be at least the one from KB937932: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/937932/en-us 2) Is COMMAND.COM launching when the 16-bit program is invoked? If not, that should be investigated. Possible steps to resolve a COMMAND.COM issue are below: - back up the files listed below before running the following commands: expand D:\i386\config.nt_ %systemroot%\system32\config.nt expand D:\i386\autoexec.nt_ %systemroot%\system32\autoexec.nt expand D:\i386\command.co_ %systemroot%\system32\command.com - check the following registry values to ensure that there are no file name issues HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\FileSystem\NtfsDisable8dot3Na

Today I troubleshooted an old DOS application that needed to run on a 32 bit Citrix XenApp Server. The last time I saw an actual DOS application in a production environment must be years ago.When starting the application, the WOW subsystem (NTVDM) crashed http://www.remkoweijnen.nl/blog/2011/12/14/ntvdm-encountered-a-hard-error/ with the message: "NTVM encountered a hard error.":After spending some time troubleshooting I remembered a similar issue from a few years ago where a DOS application worked fine from the Console but refused to work from http://support.wdc.com/knowledgebase/answer.aspx?ID=9958 an RDP or ICA session.And indeed the application works perfectly when run from the Console but not from a Console session. I noticed that the application switched to full screen mode after it was launched (even encountered a when I set it to Windowed mode) and presumably this is why ntvdm errors: full-screen mode is disallowed for DOS apps in RDP (and ICA) sessions as documented in Q192190.I looked for a way to force the application to run in windowed mode but I was unable to find such a solution. So I decided to test the application in DOSBox, an x86 PC emulator.And that worked perfectly, no changes were needed at ntvdm encountered a all to make the application run.As an added bonus, DOSBox takes care of typical issues with DOS applications running on Citrix XenApp such as keyboard polling and 100% cpu usage.I was even more impressed that the application runs fine with DOSBox on my Windows 7 64 bit machine!There is one thing I didn't like though, DOSBox always shows a Splashscreen that fades in and out:This is typically something that is not desirable on a XenApp (or RDS) environment because it causes many unnecessary screen updates. This may be a non issue on a fast LAN but on a slower WAN or high latency connection it may matter. Do how do we get rid of it?There is no commandline argument or config setting that disables the splash so I figured that my only option would be to compile the DOSBox source and leave out the splash screen.So I downloaded the source files from the sourceforge project page and launched Visual Studio 2010.The Splashscreen is in sdlmain.cpp but I noticed this comment:C++ /* Please leave the Splash screen stuff in working order in DOSBox. We spend a lot of time making DOSBox. */12/* Please leave the Splash screen stuff in working order in DOSBox. We spend a lot of time making DOSBox. */This presented me with

Cause: This issue is a result of a known issue with the NTVDM.EXE service in Windows. NTVDM.EXE is the Windows 16-bit Virtual Machine that provides an environment for a 16-bit process to execute on a 32-bit platform. Solution: In most cases using a different account with Administrator Permissions to install the Arkeia Client will resolve this issue. Note: The first thing to test when having problems with any MS-DOS-based program (including the Arkeia Network Backup installer) is the Windows Virtual Dos Machine (NTVDM) subsystem. The Command.com program can be used to test whether the NTVDM subsystem is running properly. Command.com can be started by performing the following steps: Click the Start button, and then click Run. In the Open box, type command.com, and then click OK. If command.com cannot be run or displays an error, the NTVDM subsystem is not functioning properly.
