Hi jayne,

Have a look at this MSKB article, "Error message when you install or start
an MS-DOS or 16-bit Windows-based program":
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=324767

If the file that is referenced in the error message is autoexec.nt or
config.nt, oftentimes copying the referenced file from the C:\Windows\repair
folder to the C:\Windows\System32 folder resolves the problem.

After copy set it to READONLY so it wont be deleted again!! this is
just a workaround untill you find out why this is happening!
