I`m trying to extract VisualCafe by Webgain which is packed with VBox 4.3. The dump is successful and I can run it under Win 98. But when I try to run it under Win 2000 it fails with an error ("... could not be initialized". Any clues?
Sorry for such a lame question but I`m just curious why an unboxed app runs under a certain os and fails under another.

Because VisualCafe is a windows 98 app & doesn't run under win2k?

Not really
It`s a Java Tool which runs under Win 2000. But only if it`s boxed in VBox.

the response could rely on iat's used...
some api names are not the same between win 98 and win 2k, so what did you used ti dump it ?

I used procdump with "rebuild new it" checked and made a full dump. The other options failed. Attempts with TRW2000 were unsuccessful.

Hi,

Some part of the dumped exe PE Header is wrong using ProcDump this way... did you try to dump + fix up with PEditor1.7 ?

Sometimes you still get 'C000000005' errors in WinNT/2K and then you start playing around with the PE Header voodoo to fx it :-(

That's exactly my problem with an application. I tried to use PE Editor 1.7 but no success. I don't know where to start from. Has someone any additional information? Thanks so much.

It`s as SplAj said:
the dumped file throws an 'C000000005' error. I fixed the checksum and rebuild the it with PEditor but I can`t get rid of the error. That`s so frustrating
