Hi
Your autoexec.nt problem is most likely caused by a worm or if you have
WinXP SP2 and AVAST (antivirus software) installed, it also can cause
this error.
To solve the problem:
Error message when you install or start an MS-DOS or 16-bit
Windows-based program

Alternatively:
You can put back the standard version of autoexec.nt/config.nt by
copying a backup copy held in %windir%\repair\ to %windir%\system32\
(%windir% is typically C:\Windows) instead of using the procedure in
the KB article above (see further down for instructions on how).
Could be caused a trojan or something similar, e.g.
TrojanDownloader.Win32.Dia.a, more about this here:

Also, AVAST (antivirus software) can be the cause if you
have WinXP SP2 installed:

If you want to copy the file from the repair folder, you can use
this procedure:
Open a command prompt, using e.g. Start/Run --> cmd.exe
In the command prompt, type in the following two commands exactly as
you see them in this post (you need to press enter for each command
to execute them):
cd /d %windir%
copy repair\autoexec.nt system32\*.*
Here is a "screen dump" from how it looks when I do it on my computer:
