I cannot get the game to instal on XP at all. I have tried all the
compatability modes and nothing is working. This is what it
says.........16-bit windows subsystem" and in the window it says "
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\AUTOEXEC.NT. The system file is not suitable for running
MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows applications. Choose 'Close' to terminater the
application"
Is there anything else that can be done to fix this problem? I really love
playing these games.

Thanks a bunch

Hello!

Quick answer:

Copy autoexec.nt from Windows\Repear to Windows\System 32
