Hi all,i downloaded SP2 but found when i tried to
download a driver for my printer i got the
message"C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\AUTOEXEC.NT.The system file
is not suitable for running MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows
applications.Choose 'Close' to terminate the application."
I have since removed SP2 but still get this error when
trying to install the driver.

Cheers in advance.

Rik.
 
Ok to fix this go to c:/windows/repair look there for the AUTOEXEC.NT. file
then copy it to the c;/windows/system32 folder all should work again

Click to expand...

After copy set it to READONLY so it wont be deleted again!! this is
just a workaround untill you find out why this is happening!
