I see a new error every time I try to force a event to run.

I am running 16 bit maint progams on a 32 bit Windows Install, I just tried to force a AVAT in and see nothing on the services window, or Terminal Server window of it running.

Here is the end of it, nothing about AVAT-IN being run and this is the results 
of the maint files trying to run..

Is it possible the event services aren't running? This set up is a 3.19b which 
was installed from scratch then a migration from a 3.18 system took place
after I upgraded that system to 3.19b. Thanks for the help..
