I cant even get conquest of the new world (or any other game i got a while back in a bundle called Ultimate Strategy Archives on windows xp (includes cotnw, jagged alliance, civilization, etc.)) to install. when i click to begin setup, a box appears titled "16 bit MS-DOS Subsystem" appears saying "D:\CONQUEST\INSTALL.EXE (or whatever happens to be the game file) and then C:\WINDOWS\system32\autoexec.nt. THe system is not suitable for running MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows applications. Choose close to terminate the application." Then i can close or ignore the message, however either way exits the game and i cant play. Can anyone hlep me? I'll check back here or send me an email if youd rather... RCNav3@yahoo.com Thanks

Copy config.nt and autoexec.nt from c:\windows\repair to c:\windows\system32

Then upgrade your antivirus/spyware detection programs and scan your system.
