Windows Server 2003 and 16bit program

At work we still use an old version of Tvalue (for doing amortization schedules). It's an old 16bit program. It runs fine on our Windows 2003 Terminal Server environment, however when the program is done running ntvdm keeps running and completely hogging system resources. (and actually the Tvalue program uses similar amounts of system resources when it's running too). Is there anyway to fix this, to limit the amount of the computer these old crap programs have access to?

Thanks
 
I'm guessing dual processor system and the processors are either HT or dual-core? One thread running at full speed on a system like this = 25%...

Anyway AFAIK there is not a native way to throttle processes in NT. I would focus first on why your app is running away (basically using 100% of the CPU power its single thread can get)...
 
Yup, it's a dual Xeon 2.4ghz computer.

So, obviously an old ap that can run in Win3.1 isn't needing that much power, so what could be causing this problem?
