The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft CodeView for MS-DOS, version 4.0
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYMPTOMS
========
The Microsoft CodeView Debugger (CV) version 4.0 may cause the following
run-time error when tracing through startup code in programs that use the
Microsoft Overlaid Virtual Environment (MOVE):
run-time error R6915 -
DOSX16: unhandled exception
After generating this error, CodeView usually returns to MS-DOS, but may generate
other errors or hang. Even if CodeView does not generate an error or hang, you
may not be able to reboot your machine by hitting Ctrl-Alt- Del.
STATUS
======
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in CodeView version 4.0. This
problem was corrected in CodeView version 4.01.
MORE INFORMATION
================
MOVE allows users to overlay both code and data to run MS-DOS programs that are
larger than available MS-DOS memory. MOVE can take advantage of EMS or XMS
memory.
The Microsoft CodeView Debugger version 4.0 is compatible with overlaid programs
created with MOVE.
