NTVDM. EXE

How can I get NTVDM. EXE works again, keep showing me the same message and the black window

Hi Alain,

·         What is the exact error you see on the screen?

·         You are able to boot to the fine from the computer?

NTVDM.exe allows 16-bit software runs in a 32-bit environment. It seems that a program on your computer attempts to use it, but is unable to do so.

Check the event viewer for details about the error.

    NTVDM.exe has suddenly stopped working if I run cmd.exe or command.com.  No error message, no prompt, just a blinking cursor.  If I run cmd.exe orders BACK internal DIR & CD work fine, but when I try to run one of my programs ntvdm.exe BACK starts and crashes.  When I run command.com ntvdm.exe starts immediately and crashes.

  • NTVDM.exe uses the power of the cpu.

    Running xp pro and it is slow. I noticed that 2 entries in the list of processes are the same and each medium 45-50 on the capacity of the CPU. They both show as ntvdm.exe.    I never noticed this file before running. I notice also under applications running that it lists nwwia. I don't know what it is and it obviously doesn't work, but my CPU usage remains at 100%, almost all the time now. Someone help?

    Hello
    You are able to use your applications without problem?

    To check what is causing the problem, try the following steps:

    1:NTVDM method is bound to display drivers for nVidia.I suggest you to update display drivers on the manufacturer's Web site

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/update-a-driver-for-hardware-that-isn ' t-work correctly

    Method 2: Clean boot

    How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

    Check with step 1 (run a clean boot):-If everything works well after a clean boot, you can deduce that some third-party services are at the origin of the problem.
    Continue with the remaining steps to pin-point on the third party service.

    Note: After you find the program causing the problem, you will have to perhaps to update or install a newer version of the program and also don't forget to put the computer to a normal startup.

    3:Disable method and then check the firewall/security software on the system tray.
    Note: Activate the security software after the test

  • NTVDM. EXE error because Windows Update yesterday

    Since the last version of Windows XP update yesterday, two of my eight computers will not open my program back. I get a message: NTVDM. EXE has encountered a problem and needs to close. AppName ntvdm.exe. AppVer 5.1.2600.5512. ModName kernel32.dll. 5.1.2600.5781 ModVer; Offset 00012afb. This problem is not consistent on all my computers, but is still a big problem for me. Love some tips.

    I want to thank all of you for your time and your thoughts. This is what took place:

    (1) before I dive deeply on the question, I did an image of the hard drive in question. I took the original disc, step by step repair of Windows, and on the last restart, the system could not load anything on the desktop, or pull up the Windows Activation Wizard. I then proceeded in the service of Microsoft's response and intensified in grade over several sessions and many hours. This path has never produced fruit.

    (2) I took the other disk "image" and had two technicians to address them without success. I also did all of your suggestions.

    (3) Finally, I made a new image a month ago since my last Backup Exec from Symantec. I did a scan of the CFS and installed 17 updates one at a time. The KB2707511 was again the culprit, and it is removed and hidden. I found it interesting that KB2707511 was not part of my series of update of original disc, but it appeared on this reconstruction of the hard drive.

    Lessons learned:
    (1) never delete restore points.
    (2) not to do a Windows repair without corresponding to the level of the disc at the level of the windows installed - ala remove Service Pack 3
    (3) Although the software is a pain, stand the Symantec Backup Exec.
    (4) you tech guys are very generous and a great help.

    Thanks again,
