NTVDM encountered a hard error

[Guest EJS77]

I have a strange error on a Terminal session. I receive the above error when

a

user opens an older application. When I open the same application as

myself, Domain Admin, it works. I have removed the profile and the problem

persists. When I add them the local Administrators group I still get the

error. When I add them to the Domain Admins group the application runs.

obviously I do not want the user to be a domain admin so is there anything

that I can do to resolve this problem.

 

Thanks,

Eric

That's the 16-bit subsystem.

You could check out the Sysinternals tool, Process Monitor, to see where the

app is trying to access (and failing).

You should talk to the application vendor about the permissions their

software needs to run the program. It seems odd that *local* admin rights

won't suffice, honestly.

We encountered this problem on an old 16 bit Oracle Application. Below is a

link to the fix:
