i had to do a rollback because something went wrong with an install of ntvdm64
and i had error msgs popping up for several of my apps.   the uninstall program
for ntvdm64 didn't fix the issue.

there's still 32bit versions of various windows oses that we can use in vms. 
and this is a good thing for everyone:
