[Guest]

Hi All,

I've been trying to install a few games lately, half life 1, populous etc...
and every time it comes up with the following warning message:

16 bit Windows Subsytem
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\AUTOEXEC.NT. The system file is not suitable for running
MS Dos and Microsoft Windows Applications. Choose close to terminate the
procedure.

[CLOSE] [IGNORE]
ignore closes it aswell... does anyone have any idea whats going on? It
never used to do this!
