I've been seeing this rather a lot round and about the net... so I thought you might want a bit of information for your 'just in case' file! :)

C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\AUTOEXEC.NT. the system file is not suitable for running MS-DOS and microsoft windows applications.

This occurs when either autoexec.nt or config.nt are missing or corrupt.

You can run this file for Windows XP: get it here

It will replace autoexec.nt, config.nt, and command.com.

Other methods: Copies of autoexec.nt/config.nt should be located in C:\WINDOWS\Repair in both Win2K and WinXP. You should also have a copy on your 2K/XP CD's in the i386 folder.

Proper place for AUTOEXEC.NT, CONFIG.NT, and COMMAND.COM:

(XP) - C:\WINDOWS\System32

(2K) - C:\WINNT\System32
