Cannot load VDM IPX/SPX support - when exe ran

Post by reidashman »

Hello,

I've got my batch running ok with .bat but when it is complied with qbfc it is not running I've got this message "Cannot load VDM IPX/SPX support ".

I've seen this only on one system but on then other system it is ok, all system are running on XP.


Anybody can help?

Thanks.

Symptom: When you open a DOS shell or if you run some programs in the DOS shell, you will get an error: Cannot load VDM IPX/SPX support

Causes: On Windows 2000 (maybe Windows XP and others), when you install CSNW and Novell's Netware client, it adds extra stuff to your autoexec.nt file. When you uninstall the client, it leaves a few turds around on your system (don't they all?) that could cause problems.

Solution: Edit your %SystemRoot%\system32\autoexec.nt file and look for these lines:
REM Install network redirector
lh %SystemRoot%\system32\nw16
lh %SystemRoot%\system32\vwipxspx
When you find them, just REM the lines out or delete them entirely.

Problem solved.

It's looks like something wrong with console applications on your system. It could be a stopped system service or broken configuration file. Try system repair.
