When i put in the game cd, i get this message

The system file is not suitable for runing MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows
applications
 
Hi Michellekat,

If that message refers to the file: AUTOEXEC.NT - follow this solution..

Here's an easy method to solve that error:

If that doesn't correct the issue, try this manual method:

1. Browse to C:\WINDOWS\repair
Right-Click and Copy the file named: autoexec.nt *

2. Browse to C:\WINDOWS\System32
Right-Click in that window to Paste the file
(Answer yes if prompted to replace existing file)


* Note: If the file autoexec.nt doesn't exist on your system
right click the link below and select the "Save Target As.."
option to save the file in C:\WINDOWS\System32
