running fp2.6 app(exe) under window nt 3

[jheck]

I am running a foxpro 2.6 executable under Windows NT service pack 4 and am getting system error &quot;Divide by Zero or Overflow Error&quot;. I do not get message with Windows 98. I have read the responses and the web site to find the patch but have not been able to find this specific patch. <br>
The executable was created with patch added to fp 2.6. Help.

J, you didn't specifically say you were running FP Windows, but I assume so.<br>
<br>
The Microsoft patch page for this is located here: <br>

Here are 2 more things to think about.<br>
<br>
Drive Size<br>
Foxpro 2.6 was a DOS based program and the largest drive it could run on was a 2 gig drive. What is the size of the hard drive in the Win9 / Win NT computers.<br>
<br>
Hard Drive File Allocation Table<br>
Foxpro was a DOS based program and could run on FAT16 and Network based drives. Is the NT running a FAT32 and not the NT HPFAT ????<br>

don't know how late I am, but...do you need the patch for your processor speed being 300mhz or greater? I can supply that one. let me know. It's called 'dzpatch.exe' FoxPro will give you that error if processor is as above.
