Flow Engine 6.0.1: DOS 16m error - protected mode requires VCPI within virtual 8086
Description
When running translate from the flow engine you may get the following error :
DOS16m error : protected mode requires VCPI within virtual 8086
This error can occur when the PC has the Novell Network VLM drivers installed. When the drivers are not installed then the xact tools work fine. This occurs if you are running a version of the xact tools which are not compatible with Novell Networks.
Solution
Check that there is only one version of the xact tools being referenced in the network login scripts. Network drives can be mapped to point to different direectories. If you have more than one version of the xact tools, then check that the version you are pointing to is compatible with the network.
