problem when trying to install software
I am trying to install new printer software and keep getting the following
message when I open the install CD. 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. Hopefully some one can help with an easy fix. Thanks in advance. Rob
