TITLE   :PRB: Program Manager Groups Don't Migrate from Windows 3.1
PRODUCT :Windows NT
PROD/VER:3.10
OPER/SYS:WINDOWS
KEYWORDS:

--------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:
 
 - Microsoft Windows NT operating system version 3.1
 - Microsoft Windows NT Advanced Server version 3.1
--------------------------------------------------------------------
 
SYMPTOM
-------
 
You upgrade from Microsoft Windows operating system version 3.1 or
Microsoft Windows for Workgroups version 3.1 to Windows NT and some of
your Program Manager groups are not migrated. The unmigrated groups
had a large number icons. Under Windows 3.1, you were using a 256-
color or greater video driver.
 
Note: You can check which groups did not migrate from Event Viewer.
 
CAUSE
-----
 
Under Windows NT, each Program Manager group file is limited to 64KB.
Running a video driver with a large color palette increases the
storage requirements for each icon. Any Program Manager group files
exceeding 64KB will not be migrated to Windows NT.
 
RESOLUTION
----------
 
Before installing Windows NT, remove unnecessary program items (icons)
from Program Manager groups.
