HOW TO INSTALL MS-DOS WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\AUTO.EXEC.NT If you are referring to autoexec.nt, then it would have been installed with the operating system. If for some reason it has become corrupt, you can repair it by:

copy C:\windows\repair\autoexec.nt c:\windows\system32

Hope this helps. when you say copy, do you mean copy the whole thing into run? because i tried that and it didnt work Actually I meant to issue the copy command at the prompt in a command window. This only APPLIES to the situation where the autoexec.nt is unsuitable for running DOS applications. If you have another problem, get back to us with a full explanation including your OS.

Hope this helps. I diffenatly have that problem, but i dont no where the command window is. Pls help! I am useless at using computers! Plus im blond, which doesnt help! by the way, i tried putting command window into run, and it came up with a kind of black BOX that you could write in, bu it also came up with the 'unsuitable' thing again, so it wouldnt let me type Let's try this again. Put CMD into Run. When the black box appears (that's the command shell), type:

copy c:\windows\repair\autoexec.nt c:\windows\system32

Press enter and that should fix your problem.

Good luck.
