+Directions for patching NTVDM on Windows 2000
+
+1) Start a Command Prompt Window
+2) Start Task Manager.  Sort by Name.  If NTVDM.EXE is a task End Process.
+3) Execute NTVDMPAT.EXE from this ZIP file.
+
+Notes:
+ With no arguments the executable patches both the DLLCACHE (for system file
+ protection) and the version in SYSTEM32.  The image is a Win32 executable
+ (launching a DJGPP image will require NTVDM, locking the DLL so it can't
+ be patched).  It saves the old version into NTVDM.ORI if you want to go
+ back.  If you specify arguments on the command line it will patch the
+ executables you specify instead of automating the process (if you want to
+ do the archives/patches/moves yourself).  Good luck.
+
+ Source included if you want to hack your own version.
