happens go to Start > Run > then type Command.com........ So I did when I did
that it opened a DOS window but an error came out again... (Which it's not
suppose to

I closed it... and went back to the support page... it said if an error came
out again go to %SystemRoot%/System32 then find two files... one is
command.nt and Autoexec.nt well I didn't find both... so what shall I do?

NOTE: The game I am trying to install is Freespace 2...

Are the files in C:\Windows\Repair ? if so copy them over to
C:\Windows\System32.
