Okay, Ive been trying to run a few apps such as the JDF one I downloaded off
the java site. BUT, and theres always a but with XP, its been coming up with
an error.
The error can be seen on my server at:
http://users.tpg.com.au/adslvys4/errormessage.jpg
But all it says is

C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\AUTOEXEC.NT. The system file is not suitable for running
MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows applications. Choose 'Close' to terminate this
application.
[Close] [Ignore]

And you would think clicking [Ignore] would mean you didnt care and you
wanted to continue, but noooo. It does the exact same thing as [Close].
Anyways, hope to hear back form ANYBODY on this one. Seeya!
 
Thankyou very much for that, now I know about that little expansion tool I
can repair a whole host of other things too!
