Default Re: WOT: Error trying to run Stars!

NTVDM is apparently the "NT Virtual DOS Machine" or the 16bit (DOS) running part of Windows NT/XP. Random fact of the day No.7634

For a solution, has anyone ever got the system restore feature on windows to work? As in you actually have a problem and try to go back to a 'stored' version and it works? Not in a test but with an actual problem. I never have but I could just be unlucky.

If anyone has ever got it to work then give it a try. Failing that wipe anything you've installed recently, windows re-install might do it or try all the options in compatability mode.

Compatability mode doesn't help, DosBox just says it needs windows.

Why would a program work one day and not the next?

I did register a .dll to get a homeworld modding tool working...Anyone know how to unregister a .dll?
what's the dll you registred? i'm having problems too with one of the tools
