<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I have a small application that I wrote in Delphi that is a TCP/IP server for remotely running commands on external machines. <br />
I have just set up a VMWare XP machine from scratch and installed my application on it.<br />
Although the application runs OK, as soon as I send a call to it to get it to start up an editor say, The application crashes.<br />
<br />
I can run this fine on a 2003 server VM and also on some old NT VMs. The application also works fine on my host XP machine. <br />
<br />
When the application crashes nothing is written to the event viewer.<br />
<br />
I am logged onto the VM XP machine under an Administrator account.<br />
<br />
I believe the problem is not related to VMWare or the application but has something to do with permissions on the machine I have set up.<br />
<br />
Has anyone got any ideas of what I could check?

Application Crash when remotely creating a process under XP professional

The Microsoft Legacy Operating System topic includes legacy versions of Microsoft operating systems prior to Windows 2000: All versions of MS-DOS and other versions developed for specific manufacturers and Windows 3/3.1, Windows 95 and Windows 98, plus any other Windows-related versions, and Windows Mobile.

Microsoft Legacy OS

Microsoft Windows XP is the sixth release of the NT series of operating systems, and was the first to be marketed in a variety of editions: XP Home and XP Professional, designed for business and power users. The advanced features in XP Professional are generally disabled in Home Edition, but are there and can be activated. There were two 64-bit editions, an embedded edition and a tablet edition.
