my MS-DOS is fked up.. and i keep getting the same message when trying to install some old games (half life):

Quote:
C:\Windows\System32\Autoexec.nt The system file is not suitable for running MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows applications. Choose 'Close' to terminate the application.


there is a solution to the problem here but when i go through the resolution steps and do everything, i still have the same error msg come up (ive done the steps about 5 times over and still nothing).
can anybody help me?

Sounds like the Autoexec.nt file is missing or was written to with a non-text editor.

To fix copy the .NT files from c:\Windows\Repair to
C:\Windows\System32
