NTVDM is a wrapper to run 16-bit programs in the 32-bit environment, so have you tried setting compatibility modes for that program?

I dont know much about it. Where would i go to try setting compatibility modes? I was trying to install azureus and i got this. I also got the same problem with ABC bittorrent too.
