Re: 16-bit Error

This occurs if the “Fast Access” option is turned on in the NewViews options. As Henry said, this error can occur after copying the NV programs directory to a new machine if the option was set to “On” on the old machine. This is often the case where you are moving from an old DOS/Windows version that allowed Fast Access to a new system that doesn’t. Re-installing NewViews from the diskettes has the effect of restoring the Fast Access option to the default “Off”.

Simply go to options and turn Fast Access Off and you will not be bothered by the error again. (And, while you are there, turn off Keyboard Polling.)
