Hi,

I have just managed to get the PC version of this, only to get it home and
it wont install. I am using Windows XP and the game is designed for use on
Windows 95.

I followed all the advice I have read on here and tried to install it using
the compatability mode, but it simply will not install. I get the error
message:

"16 Bit Windows Subsystem
C:\WINDOWSYSTEM32\AUTOEXEC.NT The system file is not suitable for running
MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows applications. Choose "Close" to trerminate the
application.

Close or Ignore"

Hi Dax,

Here's an easy method to solve that error:
http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_m.htm#16bit

If that doesn't correct the issue, try this manual method:

1. Browse to C:\WINDOWS\repair
Right-Click and Copy the file named: autoexec.nt *

2. Browse to C:\WINDOWS\System32
Right-Click in that window to Paste the file
(Answer yes if prompted to replace existing file)


* Note: If the file autoexec.nt doesn't exist on your system
right click the link below and select the "Save Target As.."
option to save the file in C:\WINDOWS\System32
