Unable to Start 16-bit Applications in Separate Memory Space (124742)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows NT Workstation 3.5
- Microsoft Windows NT Server 3.5
This article was previously published under Q124742 SYMPTOMS
After you enable 16-bit applications to run in separate memory spaces in
Windows NT version 3.5, you may receive the following error message when
you attempt to run any one of the 16-bit applications:
Error while setting up environment for the application.
WORKAROUND
You can run all 16-bit applications in the same memory space by disabling
the option of "Run in Separate Memory Space" for each 16-bit application's
program item property.
You may also be able to work around this problem by editing the Visual C++
environment variable LIB. Remove the %lib% portion and replace it with a
complete path.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT version 3.5. We
are researching this problem and will post new information here in the
Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
