Hello,

i have an old DOS program that nots working any more with Win 7.
At the start, i get Runtime Errror 202 06F5:24EF. Tried it on two different PCs with different mounted directories.
I´m using the current release. I´ve read the readme and the trouble shooting guide.
Is the error 202 still related to the deep of directory entries?

I´m a c# developer. If it´s an easy area, i would try to fix it myself.
Could you give me any advice?
thanks

Hello,

ok.My PC
Win 7 64 Bit Ultimate. AMD Phenom X4. 4 Gig Ram

Dosbox:
Current Release 0.74 - Windows. Default Installation, no change from the config.
Only mounted the the dir and run the programm.

Other PC which i also tried it. Standard dell pc with Win7.

The program runs on WinXP, but not in WIn7 in compatible mode.

Hopefully i have not forget anything to say.
Thanks.
If you like, i could upload the program

Do not use compatibility mode...
Or be much more descriptive of the problem and the program

i know. is there a way to set a parameter or something else to find a workaround for the error? The problem occurs on all win7 and vista systems.
I didn´t tried it with XP, but probably there will be the same prob.

It's unknown where "the" error comes from, stack problems of an application
can be pretty much everything from a bad setup (reinstall the application within dosbox
to fix that) to memory problems (try loadfix) to anything else.
