First, for WINNT, like other operating systems, ansi.sys must be active. In file: c:\winnt\system32\config.nt you should add the line device=%SystemRoot%\system32\ansi.sys and reboot Second, for the all satellite search... If the file "sort.exe" is present in your skymap directory it won't crash when plotting an all satellite search on your screen when using WINNT.
