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
