Hi folks,

Don't know if this is the correct heading or not but I have a problem when I
am trying to load some programmes that are supposed to be designed for XP. I
get the following message
"C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\AUTOEXEC.NT The system file is not suitable for running
MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows applications"

Any suggestions (apart from kicking the computer)that may help solve this?

Cheers

Alan
