  • NTVDM x64 and Windows 11

    From Richard Vonzel@1:282/1038 to All on Wed Dec 18 11:54:27 2024

    Hello everybody!

    I have had NTVDM x64 installed on my Windows 11 PC for a few years now. It have been able to run RA, PCBoard, and ProBoard with using Net2bbs and Netfoss without a problem. But I now have a problem with running these programs, the've stopped working. I believe it is from a Windows update. Is anyone else now have the same problem?

    Richard

    I was using NTVDMx64 a few years back on Windows 10 with pretty good success (there was one weird output issue with TradeWars 2002) and then when I upgraded to Windows 11, an install NTVDMx64 would pretty much hose the system:

    Supposedly there's work arounds for that issue or it's since been fixed in newer versions of NTVDMx64, but I haven't retried.

    There are definitely updates to NTVDMx64 and there are good issue reports that might help you resolve your problem:
