    VB 3 Crash under Vista

    I'm using Visual Basic 3.0. running under Vista Ultimate. I'm running as
    the Administrator. VB seems to work fine, except when I try to create a
    ..EXE. Then I get an alert box with this:

    NTVDM.EXE has stopped working

    A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.
    Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is
    available.

    With a button labeled "Close program" as the only option.

    Any ideas (other than "get a newer version") ?

    - Bill

    Have you tried setting NTVDM.EXE
    compatibility mode under the exe properties?

    I'd pick Windows 95.. I guess..

      I tried setting compatibility modes for VB.EXE, as Windows 95. Same
      failure.

      You're not permitted to set compatibility mode for NTVDM.EXE itself. (or,
      at least, I can't even as administrator)
