| 462251 | 2006-06-11 07:08:00 | A while ago on my computer i started to have problems. I have sorted most of them out now but i still have one problem. Every time I load up a game and i open it in my computer and go through the setup it seems like everything will work but it comes up with a windows box which has the heading:16 Bit Windows Sub System .And in the box says: C:/WINNT\SYSYTEM\AUTOEXEC.NT. This system file is not suitable for running MS-DOS and microsoft windows applications.Choose 'close' to terminate program. because of this problem i cant play games or install things like 'infopedia' which is like Encarta. PLEASE HELP!! |

| 462252 | 2006-06-11 07:56:00 | Corupted files, Luckily MS expect this to happen and seeing as a number of files are a tad importent they threw a folder into your windows directory that contains some backups. Navigate to your C:\WINDOWS\repair folder, copy autoexec.nt and paste it into C:\WINDOWS\system32, let it overwrite the existing file. Job done. |

| 462254 | 2006-06-11 08:32:00 | sounds like this is a windows 9x program and wont run on NT/XP Ahem, if you are running XP, then you will have an autoexec.nt. I'd say Mets right, the file has become corrupted. "AUTOEXEC.NT is used to initialize the MS-DOS environment unless a different startup file is specified in an application's PIF." For example I have an entry in this file to give a fancy prompt in dos mode. |
