Running cshow under DOS/VPC2007

Hello,
A very old App called cshow by compuserve can't be started under DOS VM
(some good-O-day pascal like errors appear like Runtime error 200 at
0000:5F59) . Do you think it is the emulated hardware issue? or the driver
provided by the software? I am not sure because qpeg, which is similar to
cshow, is able to run properly.
Thanks
Jack

Download vbrun200.dll and put it in the PATH, for example in the DOS
directory.

(from http://www.dll-download.net/vbrun200.html ,for example)

Have a look here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Runtime_error_200

and here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbo_Pascal

In that one, look especially at the section titled "Issue with CRT unit on
fast processors"

Then get a copy of TPPATCH.EXE and try that.

It's reported to sometimes work even if the program wasn't compiled with
Turbo Pascal.

I can run setup.exe, and the VM can pass almost all of the tests in various

I remember CShow. Fine program.

I seem to recall that some Runtime Errors were due to timing issues with
faster processors, or even newer DOS versions than what the program was
compiled under. I'm not sure what you could do about either, though.
SetVer if it's a DOS version issue, and there were "slowdown" programs at
one time.

Hi Bill,
There is an error running TPPATCH.exe which states that (as I don't
understand German or others)
the program was compiled with compiler prior to 7 or something I guess. But
I think you guys are right, it should be fast processor problem.
Thanks
Jack
