| Answer» <html><body><p>This is a frustrating one, this happens alot when I want to run some programs or an installer (e.g. The Sims, Theme Hospital, countless other games and software, almost everything I try) I <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/get-11812" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about GET">GET</a> this error<br/><br/>"D:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\AUTOEXEC.NT. The system file is not sutible for running MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows Applications. Choose 'Close' to terminate the application"<br/><br/>I have the option to close or ignore, if I click Ignore, I go back to install screen, If I close, I go back to the install screen, I can find no <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/help-239643" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about HELP">HELP</a> for this issue, So I was hoping...<br/><br/>I'm Running winXP Pro Version 2002<br/><br/>I mean, It's not a DOS program, and since when cant microsoft windows NOT run a microsoft windows product?<br/><br/><br/>I have a feeling it may be a remanant from when I had windows 2000?<a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/asp-8533" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about ASP">ASP</a>.... How long has this been doing this ? <br/>Why do you have your operating system on "D" drive as opposed to "C" drive ?<br/><br/>When you installed <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/win-732367" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about WIN">WIN</a> XP Pro .......did you do a clean install ?<br/><br/>let us know <br/><br/>dl65 About two months mabey<br/><br/>My C:\ Drive was a weeeee bit too small for XP <br/><br/>I thought it was a clean install yes :-/<br/><br/> Quote</p><blockquote><br/>"D:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\AUTOEXEC.NT. The system file is not sutible for running MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows Applications. Choose 'Close' to terminate the application"<br/></blockquote> <br/><br/>See <a href="https://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;324767">this</a> article for the solution.Why this is happening with Windows programs is strange since autoexec.nt sets up the 16-bit environment. Also the fact that your Windows directory is Winnt indicates some remnants of Win2000 remain.<br/><br/>To fix run the following from the command prompt:<br/> <br/><strong>copy d:\winnt\repair\autoexec.nt d:\winnt\system32</strong><br/> <br/>After you copy the file, find it in Windows Explorer, click <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/properties-11511" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about PROPERTIES">PROPERTIES</a> and lock it down by giving it a read-only attribute. This only fixes the symptoms so a virus and antispyware scan might be helpful.<br/><br/>Hope this helps.</body></html> | |
