C:WINDOWSsystem32cmd.exe
C:WINDOWSSYSTEM32AUTOEXEC.NT. The system file is not suitable for running MD-Dos and Microsoft Windows applications. Choose 'Close' to terminate the application.I tried to close it and it just pops right back up and i tried to ignore it and it doesnt do anything. I looked for my AUTOEXEC.Nt file it could not be

I know somewhere this has been answered. Unfortunately, I can't find the solution and I'm at my wits end.When I boot my computer (just started about a week ago) I get the following 3 messages: 1 Title of boxed message is 16 Bit MS-DOS Subsystem:
A. Inside this box it says C:Docume~1MikeSt~1Locals~1Tempvcrxfile.exe.The NTVDM CPU has encountered an illegal instruction. Choose close to terminate the application.
B. I close it and then I get another similar message with after Tempmssjfile.exe. I close this application and get a third message.
c. After Tempsylgfile.exe. I close this application and the computer is fine and working okay.I've tracked the files to be located in my Temp folder %temp%, and I can delete them, but once I reboot the computer, the automatically come back. I've tried even in safe mode, but no success.I havn't loaded any new programs, but like I said it just started after downloading some Microsoft updates.

I bought a new laptop a week ago and it came with Windows XP Home Edition. It also came with Norton AntiVirus already installed on it. I dislike Norton AntiVirus and decided to manually uninstall it. I went into regedit and deleted all Symantec and Norton files. Except for one file it wouldn't let me delete.A few days later (after I had no trouble installing such games as Starcraft, Blockland and Endless-Online) I tried to install The Sims, Lego Creator and some older games onto my computer from CD's. I got this message when attempting to install them

I've tried to reload a couple pieces of software that used to run fine. I get this error message In top left hand corner of error window it says 16 bit Windows Subsystem Then lower down it says: C:windowssystem32autoexec.nt. The system file is not suitable for running MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows applications. Choose "Close" to terminate the application. I have Windows XP and both programs (Microsoft Home Publishing and Canon Zoombrowser) had worked fine for a couple years. For the heck of it I even dragged a copy of the above name file to system32 to see if that would help. It didn't.

It sits there for about 45 to 50 seconds every time. I have done some research and one forum said that this may happen because of a missing file or corrupted file in windows and for me to check my Device Manager. I went through all those steps and everything seems to be ok. I have reinstalled many times and it still does

After I have had the computer on a bit, this error message comes up 'The win 16 subsysten has insufficient resources to continue running. Click OK, close application and restart' Then one of my programs, either perfect works or Print artist just closes and I have to stop everything and restart the computer to get it back on. All the other programs are still running and I can keep working for days with out hese programs, but when I want to use them I have to restart the computer all over again. They will then work for a bit again and then it starts all over again.

I downloaded a printer driver from the HP site for windows XP. When I
double click on the executable I get this erro 16 bit Windows SubsysteC:WindowsSystem32autoexec.nt. The system file is not suitable for
running MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows applications. Choose 'Close' to terminate the application.Since this is the driver HP designates for Aan XP system, I'm assuming
something is wrong with my system. I think I may have gotten this in other
situations - but it may only have been when I tried to install the same
driver earlier.

I am running Window XP Pro and for some time have been getting the following common error message:16 bit Windows Subsystem C:WindowsSystem32Autoexec.nt The system file is not suitable for running MS DOS and Microsoft Windows applications. Choose 'Close' to terminate.(Clicking on 'Close' or 'Ignore' has no further result)I have read of similar problems requiring the file to be restored into the directory from a Windows Repair folder, but there is not one on our machine. I have searched for it with all files shown and know it has never been deleted. Is it possible a virus got rid of this?

When I attempt to run older programs not specifically made for windows XP I have recently started receiving the following error when I try to install:16 bit Windows Subsystem c:WindowsSystem32autoexec.nt. This system file is not suitable for running MS-Dos and Microsoft Windows applications. Choose 'Close' to terminate the application.Then there are 2 buttons, one says 'close' the other 'ignore'. Both terminate the installation or the running of the program. I don't think it is an issue with the games, as there is at least one I could run before but cannot run now.
