I also used it for testing to make sure that code I developed could run on a brain-dead 16-bit operating system (don't fool yourself: it was a 16-bit OS with a 32-bit barnacle grafted to it, badly) because some customers ran it.

Can't run 16 bit app from network drive in W2003 SP1
Windows 64 bit is still too new for my comfort and Vista has some trials it has to go through before it will have my confidence. All my 32-bit applications run just fine, they run in Wow64 mode (Windows on Windows), similiar to NTVDM on 32-bit Windows, which allows 16-bit applications to run on 32-bit OS.

Visual Basic on Vista: try not to laugh
(No bets under Vista/64) ... I believe the problem with running any 16 bit application in a Windows 64bit environment (XP or Vista) isn't Windows, but in the CPU itself.

However, vista x64 doesn't run x86 drivers... at least at this stage. 4. Vista x64 does not support 16-bit software. You may think that you never, ever run 16-bit software.

Using QBX/PDS under windows XP
For example, Windows 9X could not handle files bigger than 2GB due the FAT/FAT32 filing system, and a 16-bit application could hang the system. There was no security for multiple users or file protection mechanisms. There was no memory protection, so all user applications could see and write to the OS memory space.
