Hi,

we have this "Could not allocate a handle" message in our environment.
The Win16 app is still functioning though, but the shape of the mouse pointer changes: it gets the look of the ICO file from the shortcut icon of the application. There are some feature bounded to the mouse pointer (displaying some data while the user moves the pointer, etc...), so this is a bit annyoing for the user.
How could we avoid this behaviour? Of course restarting the Win16 application helps but after it in various amount of time (1-3
hours) the pointer changes again.

Thanks for any suggestion.

We run the Win16 app with otvdm.exe, here are the outputs from the command window:
(winmnd.exe is the Win16 application)
