It is freezing up at a prompt called os2.exe.  I don't see anything with
compatibility mode.  I have seen it in XP I believe.  Any other ideas?

Have you tried compatibility mode? If my memory is correct 2K even has a
capability update that when installed you create a short cut to the
*.exe. Right click the shortcut and select the compatibility tab. From
there you can emulate win95, win98, NT, etc. For me this has helped with
some apps...just depends on the app.

Just for a little more information.  It will run on a test 2k3 box I
have.





There is this little DOS based program that one person in a remote
office needs to run.  It works fine on a XP based computer but on our
citrix servers it just hangs at the DOS prompt.  All our citrix servers
are windows 2000.  Is there anything that anyone knows of to get it to
work on the servers?
