Without actually testing it, I am pretty sure that it is enough to raise 
the max ports limit (see above) on windows. Have you done that? It needs 
to be set before starting the runtime system. Verify that it is set by 
calling os:getenv("ERL_MAX_PORTS").

1200 also seems strange, since max ports defaults to 1024.
