SYMPTOMS

From a Command Prompt (CMD.EXE), you started an application that uses the CreateCursor() API and creates a cursor that is 80 x 80 pixels or larger. Windows NT appears to stop responding (hang) and does not react to mouse movements or keyboard input, however, you can still access this computer's shares from other workstations.

RESOLUTION

Microsoft has modified the file, WINSRV.DLL to correct the problem.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT version 3.5. This problem was corrected in Windows NT version 3.51.
