message as previously about16 bit subsystem and i do not have a windows xp
CR-ROM as windows xp was already installed on my computer as it is only 4
weeks old. i would appreicate any help you can give
 
Hi

Search in Windows Explorer for a folder named i386. If found, use that
instead of the XP CD.
 
got into i386 but could not find command.com to expand. was able to get into
command.com using the run button,but didn`t know what to write. was able to
paste autoexec.nt and config.nt into system32 and then tried to install a
software and was told The win 16 subsystem was unable to enter Protected
mode, DOSX-EXE must be in your AUTOEXEC.NT and present in you path. thank you
for your help so far
