Hmm.. NTVDM and wowexec didn't have any noticable difference in activity when I was closing Stars! down.

A good intro to 16-bit application emulation on 32-bit windows:http://www.winnetmag.com/Articles/Index.cfm?ArticleI D=3022&pg=1&show=1052

I had a quick look on google about NTVDM and wowexec, but I couldn't find any further information. Although something like this could be done if something sharing the same memory space as Stars! decided to hang briefly on exit, but there's only wowexec besides Stars! as part of NTVDM. And the Stars! process closes very quickly after exit.

Hmm, very curious.

Alex.

they made me do it
