100% CPU usage by ntvdm

[anton]

Hi,

Is this a recognised problem? Apparently certain programs cause ntvdm to
take up 100% cpu.

In my case running codeview (cv.exe) in the microsoft assembler package.

Wanna test if you have the same problem? I believe it is released free.
Download from : http://www.ee.bilkent.edu.tr/~ee212/lab/cv.zip

I dont find any knowledge base article about this problem about Windows XP.

help?

How about if you run it on your comp? (its not a hoax, It is really a
microsoft program)
You get 100% cpu? It is like that as soon as it starts. How much power does
an old
program need?

Anton, if codeview is a dos program try www.tamedos.com and download the
trial version it reduces cpu usage of ntvdm with dos progs.
