I have a simulation app that runs ok in win3.x, win95/win98 and nt4.
I has three main modules and uses vbrun300.
Two of the modules run in 2k but the third wont start, gives an error:
Stack overflow: Re-link program with bigger stack value.
(stack:reserve,commit)
I dont have the source and the developer was taken over and the app was dumped together with any support. An example of how you can get shafted by a software co.
Anyway,does any guru know whether it is possible to fix this kind of error.
btw the app no longer requires a hardware lock and installs from 4 floppies.

Thanks

vmware is always a possible solution

i assume it's a NE format executable. the NE header has a field called stack allocation, naive me thinks that changing that might help.

Thanks for the responses.
I will have a probe.
I dont think there is anyway to force win2k to run a 'badly behaved app' although it runs fine in nt4 sp5.
The optimum solution would be to somehow patch the file/files but that is beyond my experience.
