ntvdm.exe error with sbbsexec.dll

Hi DM,

Recently I moved my BBS to a Windows 7 (32-bit) VM, and occasionally I've noticed an error dialog showing up saying NTVDM.exe has stopped working. It seems to happen with certain DOS doors and not others - One I've been able to consistently reproduce it with is DCT User Chat, and it happens when exiting the door. I doubt many people use that door much, but I've occasionally seen some users run that on my BBS, and I'm wondering if this same error may be happening with some other DOS doors as well.

When exiting DCT User Chat, this information is shown in the NTVDM.exe error dialog:
