SYMPTOMS
========

When you use Microsoft Accessible Event Watcher on a computer with Windows NT
4.0 Service Pack 4 or Service Pack 5 installed and you click Test (located on
the Settings tab of the Display tool in Control Panel), you may receive a STOP
error message on a blue screen that is similar to the following example:

   STOP 0x0000001E: KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED

This behavior occurs whether or not you change the screen resolution or color
settings on the Settings tab before you click Test.

CAUSE

This behavior occurs because an event that the Desk.cpl thread in Winable.c
sends is picked up by another thread.

STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT 4.0 and Windows NT
Server 4.0, Terminal Server Edition.

This problem was first corrected in Windows NT Server 4.0 Service Pack 6 and
Windows NT Server 4.0, Terminal Server Edition Service Pack 6.

MORE INFORMATION
================

When you finish the installation of the Microsoft Active Accessibility Software
Development Kit (SDK) software, you can choose to install Microsoft Active
Accessibility Redistribution Kit (RDK).

The RDK enables Microsoft Active Accessibility to work with computers running
Microsoft Windows 95, Microsoft Windows 98, or Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 4 or
later. You must install the RDK on these operating systems because none of these
operating systems include the system files that implement Microsoft Active
Accessibility.

After you install the SDK and RDK, you can use Accessible Event Watcher by
clicking Start, pointing to Programs, and then clicking Microsoft Active
Accessibility SDK.
